As we near the end of Day 5 of the WinCustomize subscription drive it looks like we'll be at just over 200 by the end of the day.  This means we'll be a little off-par for the month to make our 2000 new/renewed subscriber goal.

Earlier, we talked about the incredible WinCustomize direct-browser and the system tray applet that users get when they subscribe. These programs provide the ultimate way to access the gigs of content, posts, etc. that are on WinCustomize.

Another cool feature that will be coming up in the coming months will be exclusive WinCustomize subscriber skins.  We'll be releasing skins, themes, icons, wallpapers, etc. that will be only available to subscribers for 60 days.  Skin authors with Master access or higher will initially be able to release skins in this fashion as well.  Top skins based on subscriber downloads will be what is used to determine uploads so that skinners who choose to make use of that feature won't be punished.  Eventually, we hope to enable skinners to be subscriber-affiliates, that is, users who subscribe from their particular skin will get a 20% royalty on that skin once a base # of subscriptions are collected.

Stay tuned!
