Just bought Object Desktop

Where do I get themes?

from Stardock Forums

Hi. I a very new object desktop user, just bought it last night. :)

I can not figure out how I can get new skins/themes for object desktop. I don't wanna do any work, honestly, just want to see the pretty skins and point and click a shining button that says "INSTALL" and wola, I can see it on my computer. Is it possible?

Thanks!

Wei

Did you install Impulse?
If so, did you then install Windowblinds (the Flagship product)?
If so, did you reboot and did the config open?
If so, did you double-click on a skin you like?

ObjectDesktop is all about customization.  There will be lots that you are able to do.   Pick one app and take a shot at making it jsut right.

If you want one-click skinning, you want MyColors.  It does it all for you at once.  Try the free skins there.

Object Desktop is made up of several components.  You can browse the galleries here on WinCustomize, or even take a look at MyColors skin.

hmm, I did install windowblinds, (it is included in object desktop) but I didn't reboot yet. :)

Maybe it is a good idea to do so now. :)

I don't want do any either,honestly or otherwise. ;)
Seriously though,I've found ODNT more of a fun and learning experience since purchasing it in April 08 than work.
WB's will self-install after downloading,and then it's easy to apply them from WB configuration.Wallpapers can be applied from there as well.
One click to dl,one to open config,one to select a skin and one to apply it.Alternately,click on the tooltip after download and it will apply for you,simple and easy That's a good starting point.

Have fun and welcome to ODNT.
