Quoting Zubaz, reply 10Nice pic Brad.  But don't you find some of the colors in the included wallpaper hard to match your mood?  I used to on Win8 . . but not as much anymore.

Reduced 48%Original 1166 x 912

 

a little off-topic trivia for those interested in "skinning history":

this Windows 8 default wallpaper was done by Marius Bauer aka Imrik from customize.org. you can see how the sun looks pretty much like the sun he did for the GAIA 10 Rainmeter weather skin.

a little more info on his blog: http://mariusbauer.com/behance/5735155[/quote]

as far as i remember he posted some of the Gaia works here also... i liked his works but cant find it anymore but nice History lession there moshi

And for me i dont mind going a bit off topic with all that teasing going on here i have seen the two posts yesterday and launched up my SDC to grab myself the beta but was unlucky so have my off topic wrath muahaha

when Deskscapes, WB, CFX, and OD are all updated for Windows 8, i'll gladly renew my ODNT and WC subscriptions.

 

 

and no, CFX doesn't work as it should on W8, the ctrl-shift-c work-around doesn't suffice

If you are talking about the start screen, uninstall, download the latest and install it.

I have CFX installed on windows 8 and I don't have to ctrl-shift-c. Do you have the newest version installed?

yeah, i'm talking about the start screen and i have already uninstalled, rebooted, downloaded latest, and installed.......i still have to do the ctrl-shift-c bit

Sweet. I just loaded Win 8 on the PC in my bedroom, went to my downloads to get Start 8 and what do I find...DeskScapes 8.

Now that is some good morning NEWS.  I like this way of starting a Friday hehe... installed it no restart required... and its running... after the system cold boot it takes about 2 seconds ( after passwort entry for Login ) to go into animation
