Sure, like NT2002 said. Right-click on DX systray icon. Switch to Edit Mode if you're not. Select New Theme.  It will open a new theme with nothing on it at all. Save it before you import any new object and you'll be able to just open that blank theme every time you need it.

1) You do have Windows XP, right? Just checking because some people think that Windowblinds will make their WIndows 98 / ME system look like XP. 2) If you open the Windowblinds Advanced Configuration panel, under the User Overrides button, then in the XP Overrides group, make sure "Always usethe XP taskbar defined in..." isn't checked with "Disable XP style taskbar" selected. If that's not it, try uninstalling/reinstalling Windowblidns. [Message Ed
Sure we do, and we get to rate as many times as we want too!     Nah! I wish.   We don't even get to see who rated on our skins the way we can see who rated how much on any other skin.
Well, depends if you're talking in the biological sense or in the theological sense. Biologically, Nature has it all figured out: the meaning of life is to reproduce and therefore ensure survival of the species. Look at the animal life: usually, in nature, the shorter the life of an animal, the more offsprings it will have at a time: Long lived animals usually have only one baby, while shorter lived animals have many more.  Another consideration is the chances of survival of the n
Well, while we're at it, Desktop X can do it too: https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=3&SkinID=3643 But  haven't tried it. I'm really curious what impact it has on system resources... Will have to give it a go some day and see.
I dunno, just a though. Maybe the said program only support a specific icon size, or a specific number of colors for the icon. Now, ICO's can include icons for all sizes and different number of colors.  Maybe the ICO's you are trying to use don't include the actual icon size and/or number of colors that the programs are expecting to find. Just a thought. Otherwise, no clue. Good luck.

besides I've never had I.E running at the same time as Avant, what's the point? You don't need to have IE run seperatly, IE is the browser you are using with just a different shell aroud it. It's still IE. But I never had any crashing problems with IE though (although I did have some big issues with AB - see next paragraph). Beside
Yes, while English language countrie uses the QWERTY keyboard, most French countries for example use the AZERTY keyboard. Their name come from the first 6 letters on the first row. Indeed, as Jafo explained it, the QWERTY keyboard was invented in 1868 by Christopher Latham Sholes. Its particularity was that it displaced the most frequently used letters in the English language at opposite ends of the keyboard, in order to prevent the typebars to cross over and jam too much.
Slim Browser, My IE, Avant Browser... there are many choices of tabbed browsere using IE. BTW: It can't crash less than IE, because it IS IE. If IE crashes, it crashes with it.
Photoshop is the best Free/Shareware solution?
the .xp files are additional skins settings but exclusive to XP computers, as opposed to the .ini file that touches skinning features common to all Windows versions. .sss are more skins configurations files, and so are the .toolbaricons and the .animations.  Open them in Notepad, you'll see, it's just a .ini with a different extension.

I delete your post because of the profanity in its title. It may be German, but it's still unacceptable. Regarding the content of your post: Google translation: Sadly if driving out people from the side by one it with unnecessary maneuvers from the Download holds and thereby the chance lasts to you a singular desktop to have taking. I'm not sure what exactly this means, but it sounds like somebody else just reached the 50 Megs quota... Frank: t
The GIMP is definately your best choice.  It's not an easy program, but it sure is powerfull. It's free and open source: www.gimp.org
It doesn't even look like a Windows skin. The Title of the window is not even on the Titlebar... I'll go with DWatson, I think it's a separate program that uses its own custom interface.  And I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually a DOS or maybe a Unix/Linux based application.
If it's for a web site, then Internet Explorer doesn't support transparent PNG. It will show you light grey where it should be transparent. Your ONLY transparency solution for web pages are GIFs, but then you're limited to 256 colors in your image, and only 1 color of transparency. In other words, the edges will be jagged, unless you anti-alias it with the same color as your web page background color.
Wow, thanks gary. Fuzzy Logic: I think I understand... Netdetect isn't the live update program, but it checks if you have an internet connexion every 5 minutes, and that NetDetect software needs to run with the user password... If I understand correctly.  And that would be why Live Update doesn't want to run as a user. Makes sense.  I'll try it. Can't now, it's not for this machine, b
Really?  Just the user password, not the admin password? Cause Live Update won't work if ran from the user account. I must log in as Admin. I'll try it anyway. Thanks.   BTW: while I'm at it, does XP let you restrict certain programs for certain users?  A friend of mine asked me that question. She has two kids, an older and a younger one. Her older boy plays a lot of shot-em-up games, but she doesn't want to let her younger one play those games. So, is it possible
Usually nowadays, software like PSP or PS do it automatically and seamlessly, but before you used to have to do it manually.  It's a matter of creating an alpha mask in your chanel, then saving the file in 24 bits PNG.  The alpha channel is important, as that's what determines the transparency.  I don't know if PSP supports chanels or not, but that's how it should be done if the software doesn't have an "export as transparent PNG" option.
after installing the new service pack from Uncle Bill Didn't your mother ever tell you not to accept candies from strange men?  
No, I mean, give it permanent permission so it can run its automatic update unattended... Is there a way? Thanks for answering though. [Message Edited]
Running Windows XP Pro, logged on as a user (not an Admin), how would I give permission to Norton Anti-Virus Live Update to run the live update automatically, without having to log out of the user mode mode and log back in as Administrator? Anybody knows? I been wondering that for a while now. Cause it's a real pain.
You should try Windowblinds again, it's much more flexible. For example, with WB you could have the titlebar buttons on the left like it should be on OSX, while you can't with the msstyle format.
With Icon Developer you can recolorize icons very easily. https://www.stardock.com/products/icondeveloper/ [Message Edited]
