PIRATE your desktop!

Have Windows walk the plank with this new suite!

from WinCustomize Forums

Transform your entire Windows desktop experience with the new Pirate Premium Suite! This suite, when applied, will change nearly every element of your Windows GUI!

Some users have asked to be "wowed" by Stardock Design and the Pirate suite aims to deliver that WOW.

The suite includes:

  • A WindowBlinds visual style (which supports both XP and Windows Vista)
  • An icon package that not only has 117 icons but has full Windows Vista icon package support (that means 256x256 sized icons and live folder support!)
  • Multiple wallpaper backgrounds
  • A CursorXP cursor pack that will work both with the current CursorXP and with the upcoming CursorVista enhanced cursor applying program.
  • A new Logon screen 
  • A boot screen
  • ObjectDock background
  • A weather, clock calendar, media player gadget!
  • And to top it all off, a talking Pirate gadget!

This is definitely one of the best suites ever made. Check out these screenshots below:

 NOTE: Requires Theme Manager 2.5 (Object Desktop users use Stardock Central to update).

Fairyy, it is a direct download, so it *should* support resume. That is a mighty big file to download over dial up, though. If you want to get it, I can see if we can break it up for you since there is the suite and then "extras". The person that can help me with that isn't in for an hour or so, though. But, if you can't get it after purchase, we can set something up for you (or slap it on a CD and mail it as a last resort).


Last time I think you broke it up in 2...that worked fine.
Ill give it a try , if its going to act up it will drop off after about 10mbs. I will know pretty fast.

I promise that I will get cable soon..but just in case im not the only dinosaur left .. I thought Id ask in advance.

For some reason the Icons will not load.How can I open the suite, and just install the Icons seperate,or any other part of the suite?

Theme files are renamed zip files....change the suffix to zip and you can extract the contents as needed...

This is one of the best suites I ever saw. The quality level is just impressive, I like a lot the use of textures and shine bits around the UI.
Congrats Lasse and Stardock Design \o/ for the amazing work.

I hope everyone checks out the Talking Pirate gadget


Is it supposed to say something ?    because i get a speaking french voice installed on the PC but nothing seems to be going out Pirate's mouth ...

And another question: Logons are XP Logons and/or Vista Logons ?? (same for bootskins)

Well i see .mp3 files in the appdata Pirate gadget file, but this man still don't want to say anything   

Though, is it because i read .mp3's with winamp ? should these files be readen by a specific reader ? can we convert them to .wav file ? can we record other files and replace file 01.mp3 (or any other) by a new one ?

Thanks for some help, i'd like to hear him speak and it would be fun to be able to change files by my own ones ...

Please let us know when you upload the "fix"for the gap near the taskbar. I am experiencing it too...downloaded the suite this morning around 9:30, so the update wasn't online yet at that time.

Great Theme - I can see this one on my desktop for a long time!

One thing however, it seems to me that in the CursorXP theme, the "Help Select" cursor and the "Hand" cursor are mixed up. I've already modified the CursorXP theme so it looks right to me. Anyone else notice this?

Downloaded the Theme using Leechget without a hitch. Leecheget said the server supported resume.

I thought the Pirate wasn't working also...I could see his mouth moving but heard nothing..then I turned my sub-woofer up ( it was on the normal setting I always use ) and when I turned it way up I could hear him just fine..he says a lot too ..
Very cool Theme !!

the "Help Select" cursor and the "Hand" cursor are mixed up.

The hand is a hook.  I guess it would work as a Help Select....but a hook for the hand in a Pirate theme makes sense to me.  Arrrrrr!

I can't get it to work at all. The Iconpack is the only thing that works. I've tried the the suite, but, it doesn't show in WindowBlinds. I love the suite, and wish I could get it to work. Any suggestions?

This is what I did ..I used Winrar...unzip Pirate with winrar then click on the Theme manager theme, then go to the top of winrar and click on view.That opens up everything in the theme.You can pick all you want seperately.You will have to manually put the pirate windowblind folder in the theme folders in windowblinds,as well as everything else you want.Hope this helps.
