Among the many capabilities of Stardock’s DeskScapes , one of them is the ability to manage wallpapers on your PC. One feature in particular is DeskScapes applying random backgrounds at set intervals. There’s so many great wallpapers out there, there’s no reason to keep just one on there all day! Select Random Background from the wallpaper library. Selecting this gives you a new tab to select wallpapers both animated and static. You also have a new configura...

If you are fluent in another language and can translate a language file with it, then read on! The language files can be found in: C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock\Object Desktop\De...

The last week of January is here and a great day to publish TWiS.

Just this month we have added two new galleries – one for Rainmeter and the long sought gallery for ObjectDock Backgrounds. We have also been working on site functionality and tweaks, so I don’t think WinCustomize could have g...
