Product Questions?

from WinCustomize Forums
Hi, I am using the following stardock products on Xp:

-Cursor Xp
-Desktop X
-Windows Blinds
-Web Blinds
-Win Styles

Now I have Cursor Xp working fine...

I have Desktop X working fine also

But now I get to windows blinds and when I try to apply settings, nothing shows up, I don't know if it is another program causing this... Like maybe one of the others does the same thing??

And then I get to web blinds and the only darker skin they have causes ugly text colors.... Is there a way to fix just the text colors for the program?

Also has anyone gotten the logon program to work right with XP? I haven't been able to get it to work, I was trying to run the fast and the furious logon theme, but i to wouldn't show...


One more thing please... How could I take a screenshot of my desktop... I have created a great combination that I want to show to my friends... Hell maybe they will even buy some products once they see what I have made... Is it possible to creat a like recording of the desktop moving or something like that?

Thanks In advance

Also... One of the products is darkening all my pictures when they are in thumbnail form or folders that are showing the thumbnails(if you have xp, then you know what I mean)... any clue which program is causing this? thanks. It just started when I installed my stardock stuff...

Allie, some more information on which version of WindowBlinds you're running, and on which OS would be useful.

With changing the text colours, the only way that I'm aware of at the moment is to rename the skin file to .zip, and then unzip it. There should be one or more files inside which aren't graphics files. You can edit these with notepad or your favourite text editor.

With regard to the darkening of pictures when in thumbnail form, I don't know what's causing this. None of the products you've mentioned should do this.
