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

To go along with the subscriptions in this year's sub/charity drive, I invited our Master skinners to donate a portion of their skin sales to Childs Play over the course of the drive.  As a way of saying thanks, I'm going to be featuring the skins donated and the skinners who were generous enough to donate some of their hard-earned income to a good cause.

Today, we're going to take a look at the skins donated by vStyler; Harmony, Odyssey and Sexy

Harmony is vStyler's latest Master Skin, and arguably one of his most popular to date.  A clean & simple green skin (with several substyles if green isn't your thing, and it recolors very well) that is packed with a lot of goodies, including a Vista Sidebar skin.

Both Windows Vista and WindowBlinds 6 compatible, it is one of the best examples currently of what skinning can do.

On top of Harmony being a great skin to begin with, several other skinners got together to make matching skins for a number of other applications, available for free!  Between Harmony and these free skins, you have one of the more complete suites posted in recent memory.

Harmony is available for just $4.95.


Next up is Sexy.  Sexy is an incredibly slick WindowBlinds skin and probably my personal favorite among all of vStyler's work to date.  Sexy is an XP only WindowBlinds skin.

Like Harmony, there are several free skins to go along with Sexy that will really fill out the experience.

RightClick, Wallpaper 1,2,3,4,5, Xion, ObjectDock, CursorXP

Like Harmony, Sexy is also available for just 4.95


Last but certainly not least we have Odyssey Suite, which comes packed with all sorts of goodies:

-WindowBlinds skin with 2 substyles
-2 Wallpapers (1280, 1440, 1680 & 1920)
-CursorXP Theme by J. Aroche
-Two Xion Skins
-RightClick, Sysmetrix, ObjectDock, Rainlendar & Winamp Skins

Odyssey Suite is available for $9.95

Thanks for showcasing these, I hope that I can play a small part in helping someone this holiday season. I wish I could do more.

So if I want the Vista version I have to purchase from MaxStyles. Will that money be donated to charity??
on Dec 06, 2007
No it will not, just not setup to do that.

Anything with charity on it is good thing...

Way to go John, nice feature! Beautiful skins all!

Vstyler is a man of great character, his heart is as beautiful as his skins.

We all wish we could do beautiful skins as those by Vstyler, but it seems the greatest thing is to have a heart like he does. Maybe his heart is the starting point on how to make beautiful skins.

I respect you!

I'm wondering if someone decides to get the Object Desktop, will portion of it be donated as well to the Charity. I never wanted all these things in OD, but it would be great if part of the money would go to the charity.

I'd like to know

ODNT is not part of the charity drive.  If anyone wants to just donate, email Zoomba (mikec@stardock.com) . . he'll hook you up.

Very very nice skins. As for "charity" lol please its REAL easy. You just say "all the money I get for the skin I give to charity". Want to help more donate your time, give clothes, food goes on and on. Sorry most dont really want to hear this. Oh and yes I do.
