    Hello, im very impressed by your persistent to making this program bugless and light as much as it beautiful and friendly.

    the trail seems very dissent. though i notice a very annoying bug.
    when switching desktops some times the Background of the first desktop Pops up at the new desktop,just for a sec.

    i see it is happening more when “Desktop Cube Zoom” is at “0″. and especially when the wallpaper at the new desktop is with bright colors.

  2. Hi,

    Thank you very much for your kind words.

    Which version of the trial are you using? If it’s not DeskSpace 1.5.8.2, can you please download it and try it out (you’ll get another 14 days to test DeskSpace as well)?
