Known Issues

Gadgets on 64-bit Vista do not launch when applying a theme. They can be launched manually by running them from the shortcut folder created on the desktop. This should be enhanced in the near future.

WindowBlinds 6.1 customers will need to update their version of WindowBlinds to 6.10.084 before (ideally or after) installing MyColors 2.5.

If you are a new user to ObjectDesktop and have installed WindowBlinds over MyColors (fresh install), you may experience issues with MyColors 2.5. If so, please uninstall WindowBlinds and re-install WindowBlinds 6.10.084 to resolve the issue.

Is there any chance we could please get the various MyColors suite 'View History' documents updated?

In the past I've had one or two problems with a couple of the suites (managed to work round them with the help of Tech Support), but whenever a MyColors suite get updated, we never get told what has been fixed/added/removed/transmogrified/bandersnatched/... with the suite.

ETA: This is the View History right-click option in Impulse, I should point out. I don't think that is offered in MyColors itself.

How do you lock the Music Clock Gadget in place to prevent it moving?

I've just purchased MyColors Vintage which I'm planning to install on my computer.

However, I'm wondering how I can make an "offline" backup of this theme?

That it can be downloaded and activated with use of the main program is great,

but will this still work let's say 5 years from now when I wan't to "re-install" my old' computer?

I rather make an "offline" backup for myself just in case.

Your theme files are saved to:

XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Stardock\ThemeManager

Vista/7: C:\Users\Public\Documents\Stardock\ThemeManager

Just backup that folder to save your themes

Hi there! I'm using MyColors Dragon with Windows 7 and it's working beautifully. I love it! I've noticed that the icon that works for .doc files doesn't seem to show up for .docx files and was wondering if there's any way for me to manually update that. Thanks!
