WinCustomize Subscriber suite

Does that mean the suites are available for download?
BTW they look fantastic

Yes...where can we (WC subscribers) get this suite? Looks very nice!

Very nice... can't wait

where are the downloads for the suite ? gotta have it !

And this is supposed to make me willing to fork over $20? I don't think so, there is much better content for free.

Quite frankly, to make me pay it has to be better than just about anything out there, this just doesn't cut it. (sorry)

Of course there are many other reasons to subscribe, but I'm afraid this isn't one of them.

I have to say I am with Jobeleca on this one.

A good - but not great - WB skin (by Alexandrie?) and yet another colour variation of mormegil's FauxS-XP icons.

I always said that when the promised subscriber-only skins started to appear, then I would subscribe. My credit card is still in my wallet so far.

I beleve there is more in the works? Yes.
Bye the way, I think that there should be a subscriber only sction we could post to. For those few of us how belevie in the Idea.

Joe: Fine don't subscribe. Sheesh.

Okay, I'll try again, since we got a little off-topic...where can subscribers get this suite, or it is not quite ready for release yet? Is this just a teaser?

Yes! Where can we get this suite?

Well I for one am looking forward to the suites and I'm glad I subscribed.

I'm with frogboy to joe. If you're that unhappy then don't subscribe!! I've always wondered about those people that take the time to call in on a voting line to vote "No or no comment". I say save your time, money and or effort.
Personally, I'm all for it! I think Stardock and Wincustomize both are one of the best deals you'll ever get. I've gotten 100 times the cost of this subscription in enjoyment. I'm excited everyday to see what's new, either with Stardock or Wincustomize. Keep it up! You can't find this kind of bargain at Wally World... and they're rolling them back!

not really my style, but its nice to see some special content

My main point with the subscription was to support the web site, which is an awesome collection of skins. The fact that they "throw in" the SkinBrowser and now some premium skins wasn't my reason for shelling out the money...but we all have our own reasons, I'm sure.

To Frog and Radial,

My point was that this isn't exactly a premium quality skin. For an example of what I consider to be a premium quality skin take a look at XP Corona by Alexandrie which is a whole different level of quality from the one being offered here to subscribers only. XP Corona is definitely something I'd be willing to spend money for once it's completed.

I also believe I mentioned that there are other better reasons to subscribe. I plan to subscribe sometime in the next month or two for the SkinBrowser, the hope of better premium suites, and to contribute well deserved $$$ to WinCustomize.

I won't take part in the discussion about the content of the suite (would be a bit harsh for some people that are absolutely ungrateful to this site and what was,is and will be done here) but I guess this will appear in the file --> volumes menu of skinbrowser, right ?

Joe, Alexandrie made the WinCustomize premium skin and I can assure you it took more time and effort that the Corona skin.

And it also includes a complete set of new icons that are absolutely fantastic. Alpha blended icon support up to like 72x72 (perhaps higher, haven't tried).

It also comes with a pretty nify ObjectBar theme that makes use of hot keys and a nice menu skin.

The quality of the skin though is really good, it may not suit your tastes but it is still very good.

The suite will be available shortly and it's in .xptheme format (i.e. install WinStyles).

Sounds neat. Thanks for the info, Frogboy!

Way-hey! Lead me to 'em...

Ok, I'll refine my claim. I was purely referring to the WB component of the theme. When I was referring to lack of quality earlier, I was actually referring to attractivness and strong visual difference from standard Luna variants.

You are absolutely right in that it is a matter of taste, I apologize for deriding its technical quality.

A separate question, why are large parts of the Logika suite ($10) available for free? This especially makes no sense for people like me who only use WindowBlinds, and LogonStudio. Perhaps I'm wrong about this, but unless people like me are willing to support the site by buying it, why would I pay for something that's also available for free (unless it's an English translation of the suite )?

The WindowBlinds part of the Logika suite isn't free.

Ok, it was when I got it (or at least I got it for free). I stand corrected.

Jobeleca i did not subscribe for the suites (they are just a bonus) and if you do not wish to subscribe that's fine too.

I was ready to subscribe before there was mention of the suites, Because i happen to like Wincustomize... And i have downloaded one or two files here and there

There was no need of me to make the subscription to the skin browser as i am also a subscriber to odnt... and Wincustomize was not about to cap my downloads.

To be honest wincustomize and Deviantart are the only skin sites i like.. skinz.org was my favorite but since they walked out they have never been the same... even now

I am happy stardock created wincustomize to plug the big hole skinz.org made, And since i like this site i subscribed to support it.. The suites are just a cool bonus.

Now back to the icons (Alpha blended icons) what about us poor boy's with 98se that has a browser subscription will there be icons for us? boo hoo heh heh

Ok, I'll start afresh. Entilza, the reason(s) you mentioned are why I intend to subscribe sometime soon (within a month or two). As for why I haven't subscribed already, it's purely an issue of not having money to throw around until I get a new job.

The point I started out with is that while this is good skin, I expected better (or maybe I should say more) of a premium skin.

My other point is that for people that don't really care about the site itself, there needs to be better premium content (skins, etc.) for Joe Blow to plunk down his cash.

All of the Silver Plate Icons have 256 48x48 32x32 and 16x16 vesions. But the dont look as good as I would like. All those curves... But they are there.
