From technology to politics to video games; these are the random thoughts of a geek with too much time on his hands

For the past few months, Stardock has been working hard to create a whole new team dedicated to bringing you the best content for your computer. You may have noticed the recent upswing in premium content like the Argos suite, Texas Hold Em and Fortune to name just a few.

This new division also has the goal of working with companies, universities,
sports teams and more to deliver extraordinary, custom branded looks for Windows Vista and Windows XP. This new Stardock team is called Stardock Design, and claims some of the world best skinners among its team of artists.  Many of these artists are long-time members of of the WinCustomize community, whose skins, icons and gadgets you've enjoyed for years.

"The formation of Stardock Design is an entirely strategic move for Stardock," stated Stardock President and CEO Brad Wardell. "Corporations are looking to further their presence on the desktop as traditional advertising and marketing wanes in its effectiveness on the consumer and we have provided a one-stop-shop solution to all desktop branding needs."

Keep an eye out for us; you’ll be seeing a lot more of Stardock Design in the future! Stardock Design: Where Unique Technology Meets Breakthrough Design.

BTW, Stardock Design is far from done with contracting new talent.  There are actually quite a few people that I have tried to contact and have not gotten a response.

If you are interested in doing work for Stardock Design, please send a Resume stating what type of work and how much time you have to devote to the work to: jobs@stardock.com.  I can't guarantee anything at this time, but I will be trying to utilize as much as the community as possible with these projects.

We are especially interested in:

- DX widget/gadget creators
- Artists who can produce an entire suite by themselves, or teams of artists who can work together to do so.
- Icon artists

Stardock Design is growing, but we don't have work for everyone yet.  If you send in a resume and don't get a response quickly, please don't feel rejected.  We will be contacting people as opportunities arise.

I've seen a new premium skin by TreeTog called "Challenger" but I'll be damed if I can find a link to it anywhere. Is this a secret skin or something for the privileged?
