It has been two years now since any further software development
was done by TGTSoft on its products, the last release of StyleXP was in June of
2006.
In my opinion and for all intents
and purposes TGTSoft, who had its start in 2001, is gone.
No more staff, no more technical support, no
more nothing.
To the best of my
knowledge there is no one working at the company at all.
Emails to the owner go without being answered
and telephone calls to known numbers only yield a small child’s voice saying, “Hello,
you have reached Daddy.”
The last email
I received said they were working on a fix for Windows XP SP3, and that was ages
ago.
Nothing has been developed for
designing .msstyles files for Windows Vista by TGTSoft or any company at all.
Porting of the .msstyles into SkinStudio is
no longer an option in SKS 6.
With the
death of TGTSoft comes the death of the .msstyles format, which forces me to make a large and decidedly sad decision.
I have developed themes for Windows XP and the .msstyles
format since 2001 myself, and fully supported TGTSoft up until now, but I can
no longer continue to do so without support from the company.
I also develop Windowblinds themes and have done so for
almost 3 years now, and with the death of TGTSoft, I will only being developing
Windowblinds themes from now on. I will
continue to offer my .msstyles on my website until such time as the format dies
completely.
My first full Windowblinds theme, Shimmer, should be
released sometime in July 2008.
