[quote]There are 2 places to put them, and both are "correct." "Documents\Stardock\ObjectDock Library\Backgrounds" is easily accessable, but placing them in "C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock\Backgrounds" allows the tabbed backgrounds to utilize custom +/- images.[/quote] Is this an "undocumented feature" in OD 1.9? I ask because it seems that simply having all relevant documents in the former directory would be more in keeping with the direction that Micr

[quote]If i try and add the shortcut through browse it cant see the file.[/quote] Hm. This is weird. You right-click on the dock, pick "Add Entry -> Add New Shortcut," and when the dialog box opens, the file doesn't appear in the filelist in the given directory? It's completely invisible to OD? I ask because it seems to me that if you can manually navigate to it, you should be able to see it in this dialog. Could you post side-by-side screens where it appears in a standard Explorer

Standard Windowblinds skins don't have serial numbers. If you're looking for a Master Skin serial, it should be available by clicking on the Settings item on the righthand menu after you log in to Wincustomize. The Registrations tab that appears will have all of the Stardock (and third-party) software/skins you currently have registered along with a download link and serial number (if applicable).

I have to agree with # 2. The visual difference I noticed moving from XP to Vista is like night and day. While XP was a major step forward from its predecessors in many ways, it was still not particularly attractive. Now that I'm working with Vista on a daily basis (at home at least), I find that I'm less inclined to tweak things other than my animated wallpaper. This means that a) I've gotten lazier, b) Vista looks pretty good, or c) both.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="48" id="2394980"]I can honestly say, regardless of the business case to support XP, I'm not real interested in supporting it any longer than absolutely necessary. I don't want Object Desktop to become the OS for people who like to stay with ancient tech. Windows 7 is the future. It's awesome and the only reason not to get Windows 7 is for economics at which point those same people aren't likely to pay $50 for Object Desktop either.[/quote]

[quote who="k10w3" reply="7" id="2367783"] Quoting DrJBHL, reply 4Hey...what about Hannukah? Forgotten some folks have we? If I'm done with Steampunk by the beginning of November, I'll make you a Hannukah Windowblind, Seth. Maybe I'll make substyles for Soltice and Kwanzaa and maybe one in there in honor of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, even though International Talk Like A Pirate Day is more the sort of thing that his noodly-ness enjoys.

You should also bear in mind that betas are not really guaranteed to work for every user and with every configuration--that's why they're betas. Personally, I tend to wait for the stable versions before upgrading. The support staff are pretty good at resolving these kinds of issues; if the software continues to be valuable to you (and I think especially if you're considering an upgrade or have already upgraded to Win 7), then I'd re-up.

[quote who="LightStar" reply="5" id="2381951"]This problem also occurs in Windows XP 32-bit, same type programs, and also you can add Paint Shop Pro XI to the list. As far as it happening with poorly coded themes, it happens with lots of themes, so I don't think they are all poorly coded. [/quote] Sorry, LightStar, my mistake. I know I've seen this type of issue before and usually only with particular blinds, so I guess I made the assumption that it might

Decapitate, Hey, this sort of thing is common with poorly-coded themes. Please post your complete specs (CPU, graphics card, et cetera), the WindowBlind or -Blinds that you have tried, and the information under your System Info tab in WindowBlinds. That should help the gurus figure out your problem. (looks like a couple of them beat me to it. . . )

mdawson69: I didn't mean to suggest that your opinions were not worthwhile, and I can now understand what you mean. I couldn't possibly have read everything in your second post into what was given in your first post because I haven't used Macs in over 10 years. However, your second post does an excellent job of spelling out precisely what functionality you feel is missing or would serve to enhance OD+. While I see your point about tabbed docks, to me having all
