Ah, it's that time of year again.  Time for snowmen, snowball fights, hot chocolate by a roaring fire, Christmas decorations, sleigh rides and more.  Yes, it's Winter at last.

To get the season off to a good start, Stardock Design has put together the Winter Wonderland Suite.

Take a stroll through a snow covered lane and see candy canes, snowmen, and twinkling lights. Winter Wonderland brings back memories of the Holidays of the past, and makes you dream of white holidays. This heart warming suite features a heavily animated whimsical start menu, holiday inspired icons, snowy gadgets and wallpapers to warm your heart.

Winter Wonderland comes with:

  • A WindowBlinds 6 Skin with an animated start menu
  • 2 wallpapers
  • Holiday icons (includes Vista icons)
  • Holiday desktop gadgets (clock & weather)

But how can you get this suite I'm sure you're asking yourself right now?  Between now and January 3rd, 2008, you will get Winter Wonderland FREE with the purchase of any Premium Suite

Icon Packager?
What else?
There are many free suites and you don't have to apply the icons.

rickalot, if you downloaded the Winter Wonderland Suite file, rename it to a zip exstension and then extract the Windowblinds files to the correct folder on your rig. by doing that, you can at least use the blind and gadgets.

rickalot, stick with the wb6 program. you don't need to change the icons or any other thing to make your computer look spectacular. wb does it very nicely. check out the libraries , not the suite library but the wb library. there's tons of great ways to skin your computer. later, maybe you might decide to purchase the whole bundle (Object Desktop). it is worth it but not needed to create a really cool desktop.

Hi Zubaz

Tried to instal xpaugustus and it wanted iconpakager and objectbar and crashed while loading. Just tried it again so could tell you and it loaded the WB ok this time.

Which is fine as not bothered about icons matching anyway.

I have all the premium suites I want. I have no one else to "give" a suite to. I'd gladly pay (for a reasonable fee) for this Winter Wonderland Suite. BUT... if it does not become available soon I'll just have to forget it fo this year. It is the Holiday Season NOW!

Thought I would pick this up so I bought the Magic suit and this one came with it.

Did the discount for subscribers not apply to this purchase? Normally it applies when you check out but this charged me full price.

You mean when Christmas is over, then we can buy it.No Thanks

Don't quote me but I've heard-tell there's a Christmas Each & EVERY year....

Hi everyone, I wondered if anyone knew, are the premium suites only the ones listed on the page or is any suite you have to pay for considered a premium suite?
