WindowBlinds is a one-of-a-kind utility that allows Windows users to completely
change the look and feel of the Windows interface by applying a new skin.
There are thousands of different skins to choose from that are freely
downloadable from the WindowBlinds website.
A WindowBlinds skin can change Windows to look like an alternative operating
system, favorite sports car brands, favorite sports team, or virtually anything
else. With modern video cards, WindowBlinds can do this without reducing
performance. WindowBlinds 6 adds the ability to have “blurred glass” window
borders on Windows XP which allows artists to make skins that could make
Windows XP look virtually identical to Windows Vista.
Additionally, WindowBlinds 6 adds full support for customizing Microsoft’s new
Windows Vista operating system. Everything from Internet Explorer 7 skinning,
Sidebar skinning to explorer backgrounds, WindowBlinds 6 skins virtually every
element of Windows Vista while making full use of the hardware acceleration
features on Windows Vista for maximum performance.
The new version also adds a host of other features including advanced
animation support in skins, user-creatable skin sub-styles, a new, easy to use
configuration program, user customization options of fonts and colors in skins
and much more.
WindowBlinds is safe and easy to use. It doesn't alter any system files and
users can switch between the default Windows look and feel and a custom
WindowBlinds skin with the click of a button. In addition, WindowBlinds has
been tested to ensure it works with Windows Vista, so you know it is
compatible, reliable, and more secure.
Stardock WindowBlinds will let you apply thousands of different skins (visual
styles) to change the look and feel of your entire desktop. WindowBlinds is so
flexible that users can create skins that mimic the look and feel of other
operating systems. Even with thousands of different visual styles to choose
from, you can customize those visual styles as well. WindowBlinds gives you
total control over your graphical user interface. WindowBlinds will let you
change the color of your Windows GUI, change your wallpaper, give different
windows their own specific look, choose a new Windows taskbar and Start
button.
WindowBlinds doesn't just make Windows look better, it can make it more
functional. You can create your own skins that add additional buttons to the title
bar that provide additional functionality such as roll-up buttons, link buttons,
program short cuts, even media player controls. Moreover, because
WindowBlinds uses the latest features of your graphics card, it can make
Windows even faster than the default Windows XP or "Aero" style.
