WindowBlinds is a program that allows users of Windows 7, Vista, and XP to totally change the look and feel of the Windows GUI to anything they'd like by applying any of the thousands of free skins available.  WindowBlinds 7.3 adds a Windows 8 skin along with a Metro skin (for registered users) as well as enhancing skinning support for Office 2010, bug fixes, and a number of other updates.

The enhanced version, which allows on-the-fly recoloring of skins and access to more enhanced skins is $19.95 or can be purchased as part of Object Desktop, Stardock's flag-ship suite of desktop experience utilities for $49.95.

Users can download WindowBlinds 7.3 at www.windowblinds.net.

Hi Steve, didn't see that problem here, wonder if something else that you are running didn't like the WBs update.

I´ve updated my WB today, but the new WB works not correct with deskscapes 3.

Every time i apply a WB skin, my animated background freeze and i must open deskscapes and apply my dream again.

Sorry for my bad english.
I am getting the same thing. THe DS image is being set as the wallpaper, forcing a reload of the dream to start it again. (as in it isn't just paused)  I've never tried this before, so it may not be new. RnD gets the same results and he hasn't updated yet.

More generally, how Object Desktop subscribers (with Impulse expired) who are not Wincustomize subscribers and/or who who are Wincustomize subscribers but don't come or don't see annoucements for new updates for OD products will be informed that there's updates avaible ??

Until our new app is ready, either by visiting WinCustomize, Twitter, or Facebook.

I updated mine to version 7.3 without a hitch. When I went to my account I was told to go to the Stardock Store, login and get the download from there. No problem.

Nice to see the new version is at least stable, lol not like the previous beta releases ( i know i know, beta's have bugs) The new Windows 8 skins are decidedly boring though.

Make sure you uninstall Windowblinds 7.2 first. I did mine through add/remove programs in control panel, reboot then install WB7.3, reboot again and the link up top is for some killer WB's for Halloween. Welcome to the WC scripttron75

Dang Wizards ... always get the drop on stuff. Hi Wiz...lol
