Stardock Offers Halloween Desktops

A new freebie, and an update for WinCustomize Subscribers

Published on October 12, 2006 By Zoomba In WinCustomize News

Two updated versions of Stardock's Halloween themed desktop are available for download now.

The first is a visual style package that includes everything you need to change your user interface into a scary Halloween look - including the software! You do not have to own any Stardock software in order to download and apply this great skin. The Halloween desktop includes the updated R.I.P. visual style, a wallpaper, and some fun ghost and jack-o-lantern gadgets that make eerie Halloween sounds when you click on them!

You can get the skin here.

The R.I.P. visual style (previously a subscriber only resource) has been upgraded to an entire suite available ONLY to WinCustomize subscribers! It includes the updated R.I.P. skin (compliments of the great MikeB314) that incorporates a globe start button, per-pixel log-off and shutdown screens, a subscriber only wallpaper, icon set, a clock gadget and a calendar gadget.

If you are a subscriber, download your new updated R.I.P._2006 suite now by going here.

The included R.I.P. suite icons are a modification of Mormegil's Apogee icons. Like the icons in this suite? Then you'll love the Apogee icons! Click here to learn more.

i installed that, i have the WB theme, icons, 2 gadgets, clock and calendar, and a wallpaper that was all installed with the installer, i also downloaded the pack from my wincustomize account, i tried both versions. " and some fun ghost and jack-o-lantern gadgets that make eerie Halloween sounds when you click on them! " don't seem to be included in either package that i tried.

I'm having an issue with the skin and I'm not sure if I should post somewhere else as well. I downloaded and applied the subscriber .suite. Now my system tray icons are not showing up. I had a different skin (DogmaX4) applied before with no problem. There's room like they are there and the little jack-o-lantern to show and hide them is there and moves like it's showing or hiding them but they're not there and don't respond to mouse clicks.
