Windows 7 Themes

If you want to customize your Windows 7 PC, you will need just one tool – Object Desktop.

Object Desktop is a suite of programs that allows you to change anything on your desktop: icons, cursors, themes, logon screens, boot screens and more. After ignoring this tool for a while, I came to the conclusion that I was stupid not to give it a try, because this is really the best suite for customizing your PC.

It feels like Christmas when you install and toy around with all those great applications, unleashing the real power of your desktop.

Another awesome idea and one of the best utilities for Windows 7 as of right now: Windows 7 Fences.
The concept of Windows Fences is simple, you can organize your desktop icons using fences. You can put several desktop icons (preferably of the same group) into a fence, a simple window that you can resize and drag anywhere on your desktop.

Speaking of Stardock, I checked if there are any Windows 7 Themes for WindowBlinds available. I know many of you are still running Windows XP, but own a copy of Stardock’s WindowBlinds, so this might be a great theme for you:

As previously reported, Windows 7 will have a feature called WARP 10 (Windows Advanced Rasterization Platform) that will allow you to boot your PC without a graphic card.

Developer Stardock (Galactic Civilizations II, WindowBlinds 6) is obviously very pleased with Windows 7.
Stardock only managed to sell so many “games” because they’re all running on almost every PC. WARP10 means that Stardock can make games that look a lot better without having to worry that it won’t run on every PC.  That’s why CEO Brad Wardell urged everyone to install Windows 7. Obviously, they will also sell a lot more games if their games look better. As of right now, they can’t require DirectX9/10 support, because many people still run XP.

Stardock has recently (4/14/2009) released their game “Demigod”. It’s a tactical strategy game that includes rpg elements:

You can download DemiGod and all other products of Stardock through their own digital publishing platform, which you can download for free here:

Stardock’s CEO hasn’t made any statement regarding WindowsBlinds yet. Windows 7 has a completely new GUI, so Windows Blinds does not support Windows 7.
