Winstep Xtreme has just been added to Cnet's Download.com. I'm going to re-direct the main download link to them in order to boost its position in their tables.

Being new, it still hasn't been rated or reviewed yet. Do you guys mind dropping by and saying something about it, please?

Click HERE to go to the Winstep Xtreme page at Download.com.

Thanks in advance,

Done...

Was trying not to be a fan boy so only gave it 4 out of 5 when I consider some issues newbs might have, namely.

Preference UI is confusing at first with so many options - luckily you're already working on that.
There is a lack of skins/themes out there compared to other docks. Add to that that wincustomize has all the old skins which don't always work and many can't skin nexus will only confuse people on what to use.
Lack of gadgets. What you have is great, but people will want more. Particularly if using Windows sidebar or google desktop - they'll be used to a lot of gadgets (which raises a Q I will ask in a thread later ;))
And finally, the 64bit windows issues with the systray.

To be honest - I can live with all of the above - well, maybe not the systray ;) but thought it better to list 'em.

Guys, unrelated, but (and although it's going to be released today I'm still working on updating the web site) please go check out the new Nexus video on Youtube and let me know what you think:

Don't forget to click on the HD (High Definition) button.

Vid is excellent! Why not make an "Instructional" larger, slower vid and embed it on the Home page, Jorge?

Just a thought.

Wasn`t sure were to post this, so I posted it in here.

The guys over at sevenforums.com are compiling a list of "FREE" software that works with Windows 7, so I asked them to add Nexus to that list. Should get the word out there about Nexus and hopefully bring some people over to the full Xtreme package.

Rocketdock was there so didn`t want you guys to miss out :)

gave it a four (with a glowing review however) only because it doesn't support the development of third party modules otherwise it would've been an easy five. if you have to use windoze, winstep certainly makes it much more bearable. the best ui replacement i have used in recent years.

Nice write up spazdaddy :)

In all honesty I dont think it needs those third party modules, it does everything I want it to do plus more compared to other similar apps. Definetily the best UI replacement.
