I received that email with coupon to renew my OD in July too. So I did. But my OD yearly subscription was due to expire sometime in August anyway. I think the discount email was a bit confusing, I totally missed out the 2009 date and I would have just renewed my OD for 2 years at that time but I saw no option to do this...only the standard 1 year..

The 20% off was a good deal..I wish it had been a 2 year option..I would have taken it.

Yeah, I renewed on the 6th and got the "coupon" on the 23rd. I thought it was sent BECAUSE I had just renewed. Timing is everything.

Thanks Philly that worked but it only gave me 1 year. I bought 2 years worth I'll email Stardock and see what they say.

So let me get this right...as long as we have an updated renewal of ObjectDesktop we get the Magic skin? Mines updated till Oct of 2008...or does it have to be 2009? Can't afford to renew twice...to many medical bills at the moment.

Well there is this thing we call "participation"

[Definition: take part: to take part in an event or activity]
Thus there are some members who take part in being as supportive as possible for the out come of many projects offered to members here at Wincustomize/Stardock. In doing so it helps pay the bills and make things better for those hard working developers/designers. That are constantly trying their best to give everyone here at Wincustomize the best there is...

There has been many times when WC/Stardock has needed a little help with paying the bills and has asked if members would up their subs a bit to get things going better. So we did and we continue to do so. That and I would do it again if asked too!

A while back I wanted to know if I could get a discount for uping my sub for 2 years and at the time it was a "no" answer. But soon after that there was a 20% off deal being made for just one year. Well I jumped on that... but now all I need is another year to even up my subs for WC and SDC. Which here soon I'll probably just get another year again to even things up for my subs here at Stardock. This time not even thinking of chipping in to help out with the bills ... but just to get even with my subs is all.

Truth of the matter I plan on sticking around for a longtime and if they need cash to help things work better... then I'm here to help out!
We call it "participation" They call it whatever they want too! But it helps skinners and the people that are members here at this website to get more by giving whatever is needed to get things worked out. Worked out cost money those people do not do this kind of work for nothing and heck ya - they want to make more money just like you do too!
So just think about for a while and see what comes to mind when you take a good hard look at this website and all the really good people that are members here too!

I hope I have not offended anyone by reply here - if so - sorry!

I agree, has Disney written all over it.

From what I read Web, you need another years subscription.

well I finally bought 1 more year subscription which makes me Elite. LoL
25% off what a good deal. Thanks Stardock

Isn't Magic suite available yet?

I am assuming that it will be made available when WB6 is released, which is in less than two weeks.

It's been so long, I almost forgot about the suite....hhmmm.

anyone with a sub that extends past two years automatically becomes an elite user it's basicly stardock saying thanks for the support & here's a little something for you

I bought 2 subscriptions without any discounts. I'm good until 8/09 I hope that makes me an Elite Subscriber.
