Fortunately, we have plenty of those types of designs here on WinCustomize. Lets take a look at some of the best ones to try! <

I admit I should be using more keyboard shortcuts aside from just the most basic ones such as copy and paste. I was browsing Windows Central and they have an article which lists all the essential Windows 10 shortcuts. They even have them broken down to help you narrow down any you might be looking for. I'm going to go through it and find some of the most useful that I might use. Here's their list: <a href="https://www.windowscentral.com/best-windows-10-keyboard-shortcuts"

I received my order from We The People Holsters recently and I just wanted to pass along their info in case anyone else is looking for quality holsters for their firearm. Great quality, and best of all....American made! I wanted an OWB holster for my Glock 19, and they also gave me a deal on an extra mag holder so why not. They have a wide variety of styles for most handguns, and the holsters can be

We are approaching Independence Day here in the U.S., and I wanted to point out a few skins that you can download. Some of the coolest ones I like are the fireworks and U.S. flag animated wallpapers.

Just wanted to drop another reminder that we have greatly improved the tag system on WinCustomize. It should help people find skins based on those tags that are searched. You can enter these tags when you upload or just by editing the skin. Add tags for colors, locations, holidays, themes, etc. This will not put your skins back in moderation, so feel free

In one of my last blogs , I downloaded and tried out ObjectBar on my Windows 10 laptop. It was a fun experiment, and I enjoyed reading your comments on whether we should try to bring back ObjectBar. Since that got such a good response, I'd like to take a look at another app that was quite popular many years ago. It's one of my personal favorites: <a href="https://www.stardock.com/products/right
