Spring MyColors Desktop Tour

Put some "Spring" into your desktop

Thursday, June 26, 2008 by Island Dog | Discussion: OS Customization

Although Summer is here, you can still put some Spring into  your desktop, and this MyColors theme fits right in to the much warmer weather going on.  This is a theme designed for MyColors, and to find more information about MyColors, you can read through a walkthrough or view a screencast with more information. 

Visual Style and Wallpaper

The Spring theme has a vibrant colors that reflects pretty much everywhere.  I have been running some darker skins lately, and the bright colors were a welcome change.  The colors are not too bright either, and working with it on a daily basis wasn't a problem at all.

Spring Visual Style

The wallpaper is simple, yet such a beautiful design.

Icons

The color continues with the icons, and the ones with the flower designs are probably my favorite.

Gadgets

The warmer seasons often have some unpleasant weather sometimes, so the included weather gadget can keep you updated of the current and upcoming conditions for your area.  This weather gadget is also expandable into a mini-mode to give you even more screen real estate if needed.

The Spring MyColors desktop is available for both Windows Vista and XP.  If you are a subscriber to Object Desktop then you are eligible for a discount for MyColors themes.  For more information visit the Spring MyColors theme page.

I've been running this theme for a week or two and absolutely love it. The graphics are top notch, the design is pleasing to the eye, it's bright and cheerful, and it's very useable.

Not just America...the entire northern hemisphere. The guy who made this skin isn't even an American.

Giz...MyColors are just packaged wb and ip skins in a self-contained theme manager (has OEM wb&ip). You can apply it through windowblinds and iconpackager.

I know Bebi....but I'd just rather not install MyColors. Nothing against it...its just that I can't do anything with encrypted skins for extras...and I already have WindowBlinds installed for WindowBlinds. I'll just have to do without it. No biggy!

I have to agree with you on all points, including the hue of the gadget.  I wonder if the color of the gadget is adjustable?

Color profiles sucks sometimes, there will be an update to the weather gadget so it matches the rest of the suite. I think there's somewhere around 140 individual icons crammed into the pack.

Who do I have to bribe to sell me an unencrypted Spring suite for WindowBlinds?
