WinStyles 1.5 has been released.

WinStyles is the program pretty much everyone uses to put together "suites" of skins, themes, icons, walls, etc.

It lets you create and apply entire suites in the click of a button. It's been used by companies including Nintendo, Microsoft, nVidia, ATI, Touchstone, Warner Bros, Pixtudio, The Skins Factory, and others to create their suites.

A suite might contain a visual style, an icon package, a media player skin, a wallpaper, and a cursor pack (for example.

Version 1.5 has a much streamlined interface. You can now make .suite files that contain files that are both local and on the Internet. For example, if you wanted to create a theme with your own DesktopX theme but used a particular WindowBlinds visual style from WinCustomize, you could have the DX theme packaged and have the .suite include a link to the WB visual style. When a user applied it, it would download the parts it needs and then apply them along with the parts that are part of the suite locally.
