Stardock has released a new freeware program called Theme Manager 2004. It is the successor to WinStyles in that it enables users to manage all their skins, themes, wallpapers, and icons all from a single user interface. 

From Theme Manager, users can change their visual styles, wallpapers, or apply entire suites at once.  Users can also take a snapshot of their desktop and save it as a .suite file. 

WinCustomize.com includes a .suite section (make sure if you upload a suite that you use the LINKING feature to link to skins and themes that aren't yours rather than including them directly).

Theme Manager is part of Stardock's Object Desktop.

Basically. If you have ODNT, use that.

Hope this one works better than the one I'm using now. I have everything that's installed on my p.c. ticked, but still I have to manually apply certain features, like wallpaper, boot & logon skins. I check almost every day to see if there are any new updates, so TM is the newest version.

It's been available to Object Desktop users for awhile. It's NEW to non-Object Desktop users.

If you have SDC, you should have seen it in the listing for some time now. Unless at some point you had checked for it not to show up.
I haven't really used it since it is rare for someone to put together a suite where I like all the parts. Still its a handy program for many users.

I like it but I think it should do what it shows. I cant see thumbnails of at least half of the apps it says it will change for you. Want to change your cursor/winamp/WMP/beatnik? Better now the name and what it looks like cause this wont help. Wont see a pic of what your changing it to.Same with alot of the programs it shows it will but doesnt..I was pretty disappointed with that. Would be nice to get those thumbs in there. I would love it if that was the case. Its good at saving your desktop so you can change back to it later and for applying certain things. Good for some things but not complete yet.
