I didn't realize that the ability was already in place. Like you, I've been a member for close to 20 years ( 20 years, wow!) and just thought that the solution was on the system side because I've had to do it that way since I joined. Guess I'd better hold on to my pick and goggles for a bit longer and continue digging through skins to find that perfect gem to complete my desktop. </span

Hello. Wasn't sure where to post this suggestion since it's directed towards the site develpers more than anyone else. Has anyone considered encoding the ability to do searches based on color? What I would like to be able to do is type ' blue ' in the search box and get a listing of all items that are keyworded ' blue ' (not just ones that have the word blue

Awesome! I was having the same problem and quite disappointed that Ghost Trails didn't work. You should see the BIG smile on my face now! Surprising that it never occurred to me to make such a simple check. [e digicons]:blush:[/e]

I realize that this is a question that is 6 months old, but I could not find anything in the forums. Back in July of 2012, there were reports around the web regarding Microsoft advising that their gadgets be disabled due to a security risk that was found which could allow attackers to gain access to your system through their gadgets. I was just wondering if that was something that was specific to Windows gadgets or would that apply to a

Bummer. Wasn't there a way to reuse all of those themes? Kinda sad to let all that beautiful artwork go to waste or worse end up on the digital trash heap. Well thanks for responding anyways, Zubaz. Good to see you're still around.

Apparently, I have been away longer than I realized and this is going to sound like a total n00b question, but what happened to MyColors? At on time MyColors had TONS of themes that presented cars, sports and colleges, among other things. I had been waiting quite a while for Stardock to make a theme for the University of Oklahoma (there already is/was one for Oklahoma State University) and I attempted to pull up the MyColors website and all I find is a handful of themes and not the plet

Yes, as I understood it, when your subscription expired you weould able to access everything that you had installed up to the time your subscription expired. That means no new updates, but you could still access your old updates. I really wish that you could just download the program and then install from an .exe file. It would make doing any backup or reinstall of those files so much easier.

My sub expired back in March. Last night I was trying out this customization suite called 'Seven Transformation Pack 1.0'. Anyway, didn't like how it slowed my system down. So I unistalled it, and then tried to reapply Windowblinds 6.3 and it didn't work. Now that the sub has expired, ODNT won't let me reinstall. How do I reinstall WB 6.3? Do I do it through ODNT or Impulse? Your help is much appreciated.

The biggest thing that held me back from Linux was customizability (is that a word? Oh well.), but I recently found you [I]can[/I] customize Linux! So I'm now running dual boot. If I find enough software to duplicate various Windoz(R) apps, we may end up using Windows for solely for games. To quote George Costanza's father, "Security Now!", actually it's "Serenity Now", but Linux they'd both apply. :HOT: p.s. When are the new smiles gonna be available?

I did try in the ICONS Forum first, but after 21 hours and no answer, I'm hoping I'll find better luck here. I have had this problem for some time now. If I decide to change an individual icon, when I save the package, several icons will then display the incorrect icons. For ex.: .png images may all display an .ini file instead of .png files. And if I go and then try to correct the .png files other files become messed up and it just kinda snowballs. Why is t

First off permit me to apologize for the horribly, horribly bad pun. I just thought that it might catch someone's attention. Anyway, I have had this problem for some time now.

@alecchasef I agree with you on that. I put in a request about 5 months ago for OU since I'm a big Sooners fan (originally from Oklahoma City, Ok). Here's to hoping.

For me it started with Windows 95. In nosing around that OS I found out that I could change things like fonts, colors, sounds, wallpapers, etc. That was when the custo bug bit. From do-it-yourself, I moved on to Desktop Architect and fell in love with desktop themes. One late evening while looking for a new wallpaper to slap on my desktop, a link led me here to the Wallpaper gallery. After snagging a few cool walls, I explored the rest of the site, and as they say, the rest is history. HAD

Believe it or not, but nowhere in the readme or any other file did I see such simple instructions. And I couldn't figure out why sometimes when I would open a window it would work and the other times no nubs. :LOL: This just goes to show how even a simple proggie can be frustrating if you don't include (good) instructions for use, no matter how simple or straight forward it may seem to you (the developer). :LOL: Thanks for the info Zubaz. Happy Nubbing to all,

Has anyone been able to get this program to work? I've had the devil of a time trying to get it to work. I'm sure that it's probably something on my end, but I haven't found anything that could be the problem yet.

You could also take your wallpaper and in an image editor select and copy the portion you want to be clickable, use IconDeveloper and turn that small image clip into an icon, then place it on the desktop over the matching portion in the wallpaper. Voila (or is that Viola?) you have your clickable wallpaper. A lot of work I know, but it gives you an alternative.
