No doubt this is a great piece of software.  I am very tempted to get it except for one thing, I don't use all the software from Stardock with thier numerous options and functions.  I have no idea how I would work in using Winstep. 

 Life and it's many decisions.

It's not quite apples for apples. So it's hard to make that kind of comparison. Font Browser has no comparable StarDock product. You might be able to accomplish what NextStart does with DX and Rightclick....but I'm no programmer. It is fully compatible with Object Desktop & OD+

I'm looking mainly at Workshelf........think of being able to imbed a normal dock within a tabbed dock as a "submenu".....just one of the many possibilities.

It's worth taking a look around the site and checking out the youtube video.

I own Winstep and love it.  Buy it now jsut because you might need it someday . . you will.  And the deal can't be beat.

I wish I could Zub but being on a disability income,the economy and just upping my WC and Stardock subscriptions makes adding another yearly payment impossible. Add in security software, expenses are getting to a breaking point. Not bitching, just explaining. I know I'm not the only one in this boat. c'est la vie.

Thanks Zubaz!  

People, you are being given a one-time chance of purchasing $74.85 worth in software for only $19.95 during the next few hours.  Have a look at this:

NextSTART: $24.95
WorkShelf + NeXuS + Desktop Widgets: $29.95
Winstep Start Menu Organizer Pro: $19.95
Total for individual applications: $74.85

Winstep Xtreme (includes all the above software): $39.90

Winstep Xtreme 24-hour promotion: $19.95 (you save $54.90)

Your purchase of Winstep Xtreme entitles you to 1 full year of free updates and any new product additions to the Winstep Xtreme suite released durint that period (as it happened recently with the brand new Winstep Start Menu Organizer Pro).

Any updates you download during that year are yours to keep FOREVER. Once that year elapses, when you see a new version that you like enough, you can purchase it for only $19.95, which is a fraction of the original $39.90 purchase price. This purchase in turn will entitle you to another year of free updates and so on...

Note that this is not exactly a subscription as there is NO PENALTY whatsoever for letting your 1 year of free updates elapse. You can spend 5 years without upgrading, and, when you finally decide to, you still pay only $19.95 for the new version and another year of FREE upgrades.

Welcome aboard, WebGizmos!  

No, the trial version and the registered version are one and the same, the license key simply allows you to use the software past the 30 day trial period.

You can download Winstep Xtreme from HERE, if you haven't already - please follow the instructions on the registration email only AFTER having installed the software.

angus, it's really a great program. I just renewed and it's worth every penny and more! Mix and match skins along with WC using different parts of it for different purposes and looks...the two are a great blend and compliment eachother beautifully!

Welcome Webby!  I have been using Winstep for several years now. And one of the best things about it is that there are a lot of skins that match windowblinds skins, and were made by the same people. Cyclops comes to mind, as well as EZMax, I think? And there's many more! Winstep Xtreme is one awesome piece of software! Especially now, with the addition of the start menu organizer.  Thanx Jorge!

I do hope some of the really talented folks like WG do start skinning WinStep. The future's bright! WG- Jorge will set you up with anything you need.

One thing I failed miserably to mention: Jorge is a truly great guy. He responds to every question sent, though almost never makes home service calls.

Sweet, Jorge. Looks a bit like "Theme Manager" for WSX (WinStep Extreme).

Just keeps getting better. Does this mean apps like browsers will be 'skinned' also by WSX?

This is awesome! Does "A taste of things to come" mean that the next thing we know it'll be cooking dinner too?

 

You guessed it: ChefSTEP Extreme!

Isso é maravilhoso, meu amigo!
