That's a freaking cop-out. $70 for 'Ultimate' OBJECT Desktop couldn't include OBJECT dock?
I believe no it cant, If memory serves me OD as well as CurXP were both created outside SD and bought under agreement, the creator gets royalties for each sold. So they can not bundle them together with ultimate or any other package deal. It's been a long time since I had to try to remember the full story. (was like 6 years ago or better since I asked this very question) Just like why they dont offer master skins with bundles.
SD does generously offer a Discount on the items tho, coming off of thier side of the purchase price.
As for the OP:
Windowblinds is the application that changes the way Windows look's. (Mostly Explorer).
Iconpackager is the application that applies custom icons.
DesktopX is the application that runs the widgets/gadgets. (clocks,weather displays,calendars,etc)
These combined with other Stardock skinning programs, make up the MyColors desktop theming application. Basically MyColors is WB,IP,DX and other popular SD applications all rolled up in to one.
MyColors is the new one click way to customize your desktop with pre built suites. Many folks did not want to have to get to involved working with different applications to achieve a custom desktop look. So SD decided to make an easy to use desktop customization application, to apply the various skins needed for that fully customized Desktop look. Hence MyColors was born.
Theme manager is sort of the base for Mycolors, (It was built before Mycolors was concieved.) While My colors allows you to apply MyColors Suites * typically purchased* tho they do offer some free ones. Theme manager allows you to build your own Themes from the various skins at WC and or apply the free themes already assembled at Wincustomize's suites library.
I hope this clears up any questions you have.
