Halloween Theme is Here!

Free for WinCustomize and Object Desktop Subscribers!

Published on October 14, 2008 By Island Dog In WinCustomize News

October is the month of ghouls and goblins, and aside from trick or treating or throwing a Halloween party, you can also “dress up” your desktop for a spooky Halloween look. Today, Stardock is screaming with joy as we present the MyColors Halloween them, which is free to WinCustomize Subscribers and Object Desktop subscribers.

This theme includes a creepy visual style to change the look of Windows with spectacular animations in the start menu and "please wait" dialog, along with a gruesome desktop gadget, and a freakishly designed icon pack with 64 unique icons, and wallpapers. This is just about everything you need to transform your desktop into its own haunted place.

Object Desktop subscribers: The MyColors theme will be added to your account automatically.
WinCustomize subscribers: You can find a .zip file containing all the components in the Subscriber Resources area.

Quick fix:

"Go to registration page, right click on the Halloween Theme, click update registration, delete the text that says [No serial number required], then put a space (since you can't click apply with no text in there), then click apply (it will now say Serial number associated with account), and now you can finally install it."

Understanding that My Colors has a hicup at the moment, if you are both a Objecte Desktop and WinCustomize subscriber does it make a difference where you downoload it from?

Oh well, just thought about it a minute and the simple answer is if you want to load the theme all at once then use My Colors, when it's fix. DOH
