6.2.2008New Windows Vista Wallpapers Released
Since the final stages of
Vista's development, many
have been wondering why no
official Windows Vista branded
wallpaper had been included,
unlike in Windows XP and
earlier versions of Windows.
Today,
Microsoft unveiled a new set
of "Windows Vista Ultimate"
branded wallpapers on the
Ultimate
Extras site.
There are two
wallpapers available, one of
which features a large version
of the start orb, while the
other features the new
"flare" design as seen on
the new Windows Vista
packaging. Both wallpapers are
available in a wide variety of
sizes.
So, maybe Microsoft finally
heard us... or maybe they were
just keeping it a suprise?

06.12.2008Vista RTM to include animated wallpapers!
The most recent in a series of
rumors about what was
previously called Desktop
Aurora says that the
long-awaited animated desktop
wallpapers would appear in
Windows Vista's final release
under the name "Motion
Desktop", but Aurora
wouldn't be the only animated
wallpaper to be included with
the operating system, but
there would rather be three
different ones.
While Aurora is obvious, an
animated cherry blossom tree
would also be part of it,
along with another one that's
still unknown as of yet.
The versions of Vista
that will include the new
wallpapers are currently
unknown, along with the
customizability degree for the
user.

Stardock is pleased to announce that the DeskScapes 2.0 preview version is now available. DeskScapes allows users of Windows Vista to have animated
wallpapers on their desktop. It runs the Stardock created .DREAM format which can contain videos as animated wallpapers or dynamically generated
content.
What makes DeskScapes special is that animated wallpapers can be run that use hardly any system resources (obviously
this will depend on what animated wallpaper is chosen). It integrates seamlessly with the Windows Vista desktop background dialog so picking animated
wallpapers is much the same as picking any other desktop wallpaper.

18.04.2009Animated wallpapers no longer just for the Vista elite
Animated
wallpapers have been one of the “Extras” that Microsoft has touted as a selling point for customers of its priciest Windows Vista SKU.
But now Stardock is bringing animated wallpapers to the Vista masses.
Stardock, a Gold Certified Microsoft partner, worked with Microsoft on DreamScene — a desktop-display feature that
allows users to make looped, full-motion video their desktop wallpaper (as opposed to using static images only for background wallpaper). After a
number of delays,
Microsoft finally released DreamScene in September 2007.
Stardock helped to create much of the initial
wallpaper content for DreamScene and then went on to release DeskScapes 1.0 for Vista Ultimate users interested in enhancing DreamScene. With
DeskScapes 2.0, Stardock has decided to make animated wallpapers avaialble to users of Vista Business, Home Premium and Ultimate users. The Standard
edition of the product will be available as a free download; an enhanced version with additional features and “premium” content also will
be availbale for $19.95.

13.11.2007Get Yer' Windows 7 Stuff
Adaptation is something not one of us enjoys doing; changing your 'style' to make something work is something we do every day; it could easily be
avoided.
Microsoft has worked extremely hard to make Windows 7 adapt to YOU, and make it work how and when YOU want it to. The last step
in the magical transformation of Windows, is the ability to theme without patching system files. When the interface feels right, working and playing
becomes much more fun.
"Give your PC a personal touch" says Microsoft:
They now provide free downloads of themes,
wallpapers, and certified gadgets all compiled by Microsoft staff.
By clicking on a theme, it will be downloaded and installed, changing
familiar things such as the wallpaper, sounds, icons, and the Aero glass color.
The gadgets are split into two categories: the regular
windows gadgets, and the emerging Sideshow gadgets. From traffic maps, to a PowerPoint remote control, they've got a decent selection in there. The
best part? They're all Microsoft-certified.
Hopefully in time, they will allow further customization of the themes especially, without
patching any files. (Maybe this could be some sort of extra in the best edition?)
For now though, we'll have to live with a wide range
of colors, matching wallpapers, and gadgets to go with it. It's a step in the right direction; let's hope it takes us somewhere.
