Using Cursor XP graphics in FX in CursorFX Stardock Forums

Just finally upgraded to FX (from CursorXP) after years of waiting. Nice interface, but they removed some things that I liked; the trails thing is not as powerfull (follower missing for one thing) as it was......

Long, long ago in a faraway galaxy......... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

... like maybe TEN years, and Window Blinds was very new...... There wer quite a number of skins made that were animated. I don't mean like start menus (XP wasn't even out yet), but window borders.

Archiving MyColors skins in MyColors Stardock Forums

HI: Skins suites dl/ed thru the MyColors "manager" program get installed directly onto your HD immediately after the DL finishes.
