We are proud to herewith finally bring panagenda MarvelClient Skinning Edition 2.0 (also referred to as GYWAM 2.0 - Give Your Workspace A Makeover 2.0) to life - for FREE (click on the screenshot to download):


Note the system requirements: IBM Lotus Notes 6.x, 7.x, or 8.x (as of today; Notes 5 on request), any language, and setup / install type supported by IBM; Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, or Citrix / WTS.
A note especially - but not necessarily limited - to Notes 8 users: Textured Workspace must be enabled (which in Notes 8 it is not by default, hence the pastel look) --> User Preferences --> Check "Textured Workspace"; for bookmark maniacs, skinning also works with the virtual workspace (display bookmark folder as workspace).
Background image kindly provided by Ed Brill.

A gallery containing the fantastic skins of all skinning volunteers to follow shortly - we would in general very much appreciate, if you would share any customized skins you create with us, so that we can make them available to the community - naturally including appropriate credit (if not fame).
We will also add instructions in just a bit on how to create your own skins here (= on this blog) - Updated: Now to be found here.

In case you are also interested in further Lotus Notes client management features:
The skinning feature is naturally also included in panagenda MarvelClient Enterprise Edition, a solution for central(ized) Lotus Notes Client Management.

MarvelClient is the only Lotus Notes client management solution that works with the original Lotus Notes login dialog and applies changes immediately during client startup in as little as just a few hundred ms - no need for end users to restart their client again to apply changes that were downloaded just now, and a solution that is virtually unnoticable for end users.

MarvelClient Enterprise Edition allows to centrally manage (abstract):

• Workspace pages (add, move, clear, delete, color, (re)name, ...)
• Desktop Icons & Icon stacks (add, position, remove, (mass)change, ...)
• Replicator page entries (add, position, set details, remove, (mass)change, ...
• Replicas and local databases (add, (smart) remove, enforce, ...)
• Bookmark folders and Bookmarks (including formula bookmarks; add, remove, position, (mass)change, ...)
• Dedicated ECL Management (way beyond ECL Refresh)
• Masschanges for any size of consolidation, recertification, and migration project - up to 1,500 changes per second make sure that end users that come back from e.g. a four week holiday don't have to go on holiday again waiting for a many changes to be processed, that may have piled up during their absence in larger projects.
• Realtime control over which servers users (and their client ;-)) may/shall connect to
• Realtime control over which databases may be created or deleted by end users
• and more.

Thanks for stopping by!
