Are You Sick of the Boring XP or Vista Interface? Then Check Out WindowsBlinds 6
Give Windows Some Life
With WindowsBlinds you can make Windows XP and Vista look like totally different operating systems and customize the look and feel more to your tastes. You can pick themes that suite your style, maybe your favorite football team or favorite sports car. There are thousands of skins to download and use and many more created daily by users and creators of the program.
WindowsBlinds isn't only intended to make Windows look better it also adds functionality to the Windows interface. You can create and customize the skins to not only look cool but you can add buttons to the title bar that provide additional functionality like link buttons, program short cuts, and even media player controls. Even though you are choosing skins from Stardock you aren't limited to the way they look, WindowsBlinds gives you complete control over modification of the skins and how they look and feel.
I like how the program allows you to add additional buttons and links to the different windows of the operating system. Sometimes there just isn't what I want in a toolbar or window interface so with WindowsBlinds I can add them as I please. I like to customize things to look and act the way I want them to and I think its awesome that Stardock allows that with WindowsBlinds.
I have to admit I was a little worried at first when I started to use WindowsBlinds that all the added graphics, skins, backgrounds, wallpapers, and other customizations to Windows was going to make it run like crap. I was surprised that it had little effect on my PC's performance other than at boot-up, it takes about an additional 2 minutes to boot-up now but that isn't to bad since I only reboot once or twice a month.
WindowsBlinds is safe to use for anyone who wants to have added functionality to their PC's user interface and is sick of the old boring Windows look. The program doesn't alter any system files and its so easy to use you can simply change the look of Windows with a click of a button. WindowsBlinds has also been put through some rigorous testing to ensure ti wont harm your PC or its performance. It won't slow down your computer and uses the most recent technology to make sure it uses very little memory.
You can try WindowsBlinds for free from Stardock, the trial period is a 30 day license and onces its up you will be asked to buy the upgrade for $19.95 which is a nominal price to pay for such a cool fun program. I even purchased WindowsBlinds and I am normally a strictly free program type of guy. Go get a copy of WindowsBlinds at their website (http://www.stardock.com) also be sure to check out all of the screenshots of some of their interfaces.
There is also a great community of users who can help you with using WindowsBlinds and give you loads of great information about the program and how they are using it.
