I've been using Winstep Xtreme for a while now (ever since GAotD) on my Win 7 64 bit computers and as much as I used to love OD, the problems with the 64 bit OS were too much. I also love the fact that the themes can skin all the docks, shelves and task bar at once. I like to match my Windowblinds and my Winstep themes. I do miss the tabbed docks you could use like pull-out drawers but I love the sub docks too. You <str

Then again . . . What good is having the newest technology if there's nothing to take advantage of it? I don't have USB 3 on my computer but my 2TB external drive has a USB 3 interface. I don't see anything for Intel's super fast bus yet. Also, USB 3 is backwards compatible, so that's a BIG plus!

I switched to 64 bit when I upgraded to Win 7. I have only had problems with OLD programs and games not working. I am striving for the future, not hanging on to the past! I already had this 64 bit quad core computer (although it only has 3 GB of RAM, so I don't NEED a 64 bit OS) I figured if I was gonna change the OS anyway, I might as well go 64 bit as well.

Bootskins are only for XP, They don't have a Bootskin program for Vista or 7. If you click on Explore (near the top between Home and Articles), you get a page where you can choose to view the different skin categories. Logon Studio XP would be logons for XP (obviously), wheras Logon Studio would be for (as it says) Vista and 7. I think depending on if you are a Wincustomize subscriber (as I am), Under Explore Filters</stron

All you have to do is double click on the desktop to hide all fences and the icons within. If they are hidden when you turn off your machine, they should be hidden when you start up. I have the Pro version but it should be the same with the free.

I assume you are right dragging a rectangle and not just right clicking? When you let go of the right button, a pop up should come up saying: "create new fence here". Works for me on Win7 64.

I have been seriously considering purchasing this (Winstep) since last weekend! I had even downloaded the free Nexus version to test. Imagine my surprise when I found the Exreme version this morning for FREE! I was almost late for work because I wanted to download and install it right away so I wouldn't forget like I have with a few other deals. To top it all off, a seriously inexpensive upgrade offer! WIN WIN! [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

As much as I loved RightClick, and will surely miss it, I have been using PowerPro to create menus for years. It isn't as easy as RightClick or as easily skinnable, but it still works with my Win7 64 bit and it's FREE ! [e digicons]:D[/e] (it also does button bars, macros, hot keys, messages/alarms, task

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="154" id="2662306"] Who needs a Start Button? I'm starting a protest movement against Start Buttons. Calling it "Start Buttons? Nuttin Buttons!". They're easy to skin, too.[/quote] Yeah, Who needs a button on the screen when there's a dedicated key for that? With OD, Fences, DX and other programs, I too only use my

Although you can change the graphic used, (It's just a .PNG file) the month and day number would still be slanted, as it is programmed to do that. I think most people just use either Rainlendar or DesktopX calendars these days.
