I had a problem with Excel 2007 using the latest Beta of WB it would not run the window correctly unless it was in the full window mode if I minimized to any size excel just would not function properly with the latest Beta of WB, I had two (2) options that would solve the problem 1. Install the latest Non beta Version. (which I eventually did) or I could have excluded Excel from being skinned which also solved the issue. Since I wanted Excel skinned I chose to run the latest certified version

You know what you obviously have me confused with someone that gives a crap about you opinion. he has his moment in the sun, I was commenting on the choice and the group that made that choice. I still think there were far better May Screen shots to choose from. It does not reflect on the person who won. I disagree with the choice it does not mean I think the winner was not qualified to win, it just means I think there was better out there.

Sorry, I am going to stick to my guns, I will not post negative comments on any skin I will only star rate them. If the designer cannot accept negative comments they cannot improve their work. I guess it is only human nature to surround yourself with "YES" men and women. This is why many people, companies and politician fail, they have no one to tell them that the "Emperor has no clothes on". I saw many a unit in the service fail because no one had the "Gonads " to tell the commander or

Well I guess I will only post problems on the forums, as one seems to get denigrated for posting and possibly offending a member of the Stardocks mutual admiration society. I will use only the star rating system from now on and no longer make comments on walls or WB or any other item that I think is terrible or not to my taste. I will give and comment on items I like to join the majority in the Stardock mutual admiration society.

Again we all have opinions they are like arm pits we all have 2, Yes I manipulate a wall I may recolor it, I may ad an object to the wall. I have changed the look of my Winstep by creating different PNG files to get a different look and feel to the quick launch button and task buttons and OMG the start button and start bar. I manipulate and change the colors in a Skin using SKS and WB. I may even change the font color or the font using SKS. I personalize the desktop to my preferences in color

I only post to show what can be done with a little snipping of various skins take a little from one and place it another. Take a wall recolor it, take a PNG from one skin and use it in another skin I usually on the screen shots just post the screen shot without links. No links no consideration. I did not post a May screen shot to become a winner. I will continue to post my screen shots but in the future I will ensure that I include no links to the items that are shown in the sho

Ya know JuniorCrooks is a nice guy from what I've seen and I think that OldMsgt you should be ashamed of yourself for taking away from his moment. He might be a nice guy and most likely is, I do not personally know him. My statements still stand. There were many more screen shots in May that were far better, I just selected one as an example. I could have easily picked at least 10 different screen shot from the May selection that

Excuse Me!! I did not come and post on this board for a grammar lesson. Disagree with my opinion that is acceptable criticism, but comments on the grammar are not. This thread is about the selection of the May screen shot. I am sorry, however I post what I feel, if it does not meet the criteria of the mutual admiration society of the forum that is your problem not mine. "I calls it as I sees it" here would have been my selection ht
