    why would we want to pay money to get a program thats going to be free ???

    you could always give us acess for free to the beta so we could give you feedback on it and help testing ...

    There will be two versions of a DeskScapes. A free version, and an enhanced version that will offer more features, and subscribers get the advanced version. You don't "have" to subscribe, I justed wanted to point out you can get very early access to things like this.


    That's an advantage to being a subscriber, very early access ;)

    I just noticed I was in beta for this software. Hahaha.
    I installed it couple weeks ago, so I can use a .dream file.
    From personal experience, the program runs pretty well, I have Vista Ultimate and it seems to be able to "Integrate" itself with the dreamscene, but the supposely next version of deskscape will allow other Vista OSs to use the func of dreamscene as well.
