WindowBlinds is a program that allows you to completely change the look and feel of Windows to however you want it to look like. It allows you to completely customize your desktop by changing the style of title bars, buttons, and toolbars. You can change the look of buttons and check boxes by assigning them skins, or personalities, and you can assign buttons that will launch programs to toolbars. You can create your own skins, choose from the four that are included in the program, or download additional ones. You can also choose to exclude certain programs from WindowBlinds if you don't want to change their appearances.

    Machine (windows7 Q6600@3Ghz4Gig ram) takes quit a performance hit with this installed. Using Visualstyles and a patched uxtheme there was none or NO seeable performance hit. Also when you uninstall this it's a bit of a mess and leaves lots of rubbish behind and even trys to start something it removed. All in all looks great but the WORST version of windowblinds I've ever tried.

    the newest version always looks nice.

    it is pretty slow, uninstallation hurts machine, Stardock's marketing mechanism is quite not right.

    I put version 7 on yesterday, I subscribe to Object desktop ultimate so it was a free upgrade. I paid early this year & got an extra 3 months free which was great. Version 7 is excellent, some nice new themes in there too. Next to MS Office, it's my second must have program which just keeps getting better & better.

    Nice customization features, some very nice themes, and plus it is very light on system's resources.
