Pretty shiny green
Published on January 2, 2008 By Zoomba In WinCustomize News

Originally released the Friday before Christmas, I wanted to take a moment to highlight Sirus, the latest Master Skin effort by skinning legend, MikeB314.

Sirus is one of the few skins released to date to truly take advantage of WindowBlinds 6 and its new features.  Sirus comes complete with an animated start menu and start button, per-pixel windows/taskbar/start menu, blur effects and Vista glass toolbars.  And today Mike updated the skin to include a Windows Vista sidebar skin.  If you're a Windows Vista user, this is a great skin to pick up for your collection.

Sirus is a great, top-quality skin, exactly the kind of work you'd expect from someone like MikeB.

I dl this twice and there's no sidebar skin. I thought is just wasn't being installed but it's not in the Sirus wb folder. So is it just me?

Boo Patriots!!

I thought him everything he knows, but no need to believe me on this.   

As soon as Paypal update my Credit Card, I'll be back in the game.
I need OD to start doing my thing. Gotta start doing my thing again.

Hope he brings them out very often

Indeed, a top notch classy skin!!! I'm using it now, and I really love it. The wall is first rate too. If I can come up with a skin HALF as good as this I'll be a happy man. Thanks Mike.

Another Awesome Skin from one of the best. Thank you as always.


One problem though, you have updated it with the Sidebar now. I deleted the Sirus, had Stardock send me an update to all my downloads...re-downloaded Sirus...No Sidebar within.


All I get is the Convex, Diamond, and Quest. I tried with "Use skin defined" to no avail.

Am I missing something?
