Editor's review of SkinCalc

This piece of freeware provides few functional enhancements compared to Windows built-in calculator, but it sure looks a lot nicer. True to its name, the application's main claim to fame is that it offers calculators in five styles and colors. You can download more skins from the developer's Web site, but a larger bundled selection would be a plus. Though four of the calculators are almost identical to your PC's calculator in terms of functionality, the Pro skin offers a few advanced mathematical functions. Unfortunately, some of the designs can be confusing to operate. For instance, the RedGlass skin doesn't have a menu buttons so it takes a while to figure out how to change to another skin. Math students or whizzes will need a more powerful implement, but average users who want a more exciting-looking calculator will find the price nice.

  FREE, Really FREE Calculator with many skins

  by: alwaysok on 03-Jun-2007 04:46:16 AM

  Pros: Well, it's your basic desktop calculator but you can have a variety of skins. It will also do conversions for you. No pop-ups, no ads .. just free and easy to use. You can have it be transparent on your desktop or just keep it closed until you need it.

  Cons: Not a thing.

  Great design

  by: iricigor on 28-Aug-2006 12:33:15 PM

  Pros: Very, very nice skins. For the authors: Include screen shot in description!

  Cons: It would be nice to have more skins included in original download. Some skins are confusing (no skins or menu button). Advanced options are hidden in some skins. There could be more advanced operations. For the first run it requires administrative privileges, even it does not requires them for installation!

  SkinCalc beats WinCalc!

  by: gangsterls on 13-Aug-2006 07:50:15 AM

  Pros: SkinCalc replaces the windows calculator perfectly, with the added features of customization and even more skins online! As simple and straightforward as Windows with a better look that goes with my background! Completely free too!

  Cons: Bit tricky with the skins that don't have a menu button. Took me about 30 sec before i found that right clicking could open up a context menu where you can change the skin.

  Oustanding calculator, The fade feature is awesome!!

  by: eodgator on 14-Dec-2005 11:38:48 AM

  Pros: Small both in size and footpint. If you choose certain skins it will fade when it loses focus. You can also choose to keep it on top which is another great help.

  Cons: It could have more functions available.
