That I'm not sure about. You might find some information on it here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[ln];302806 It all sounds perfectly legal to me though. You might just want to email Microsoft support and find out the procedure for tranfering a license.

Ok, now I'm sure. XP Home can be upgraded to XP Pro. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/howtobuy/upgrading/matrix.asp
It depends on whether you purchased a full version of XP Pro or an upgrade. If you bought a full version, then you should be able to give your XP Home license away. If you bought an upgrade, then you need to keep your XP Home license. The full version of the XP Pro CD is capable of doing a full install or an upgrade, your choice. However, I'm not sure if XP Home is capable of being upgraded to Pro.

I've got one for you, Pat. The SkinPlant skin pack news post on the home page says it has 1 comment, but it really has 18.
Hehe, xpthemes.com is actually owned by Stardock. It's basically an alternative front end for WinCustomize that is more novice/search engine friendly, I believe.
The icons I used in my Quagmire screenshot are Noia Bogart by Carlitus. I can't find the icon package online anymore. The individual ones are available here: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/588761/
Thanks everyone! balls: It is designed to fit with your icons set at 32x32 or 48x48. In order to use larger icons, you'll have to edit the width of the user pane and the places list in SkinStudio. It's just a couple of settings though, no need to modify any graphics or anything.
We have just released an all new premium WindowBlinds skin pack. It includes four high quality WindowBlinds skins called Doppler, io, Minimus, and Quagmire, which are available exclusively from SkinPlant.com. You can learn more and see the full pack here:http://www.skinplant.com/library.cfm
Try this: 1. Go to your WindowBlinds folder. 2. Delete the skin folder for the skin that won't install. 3. Delete the .cat file(s) from your WindowBlinds folder. 4. Reinstall the skin. 5. Open Display Properties and see if it is in the skin list now. That usually does the trick. The .cat file (there is one for each user account on your machine) keeps a list of what skins are installed. Sometimes, if things go haywire, it stops keeping track and
Hehe, you guys are great. I'm glad that somebody noticed. Just to be clear, it's a 4 pack of WindowBlinds skins. They should be available Sunday or Monday.
The dialog background takes its color from the Button Face setting in the Colors section. You can also add a dialog background bitmap if you want something other than a solid color.
SoliD_NuTs, three people asked you for more information so we could try and help, and you didn't respond to any of us. It might not be only you, but without more info, we may never know.

What paxx said. Happy birthday, Koop!
Do you mean you made the menu bar double height? That is where the MDI buttons appear. I didn't think that was possible either. I'd like to see a screenshot.
You can do it with content margins, three_4me. Take a look at this skin: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/2650228/
Hmm, could be that I just always use black menu text, so I never noticed if the normal state changes or not.
It depends on which favorites menu you look at. The favorites menu on the start menu does respect menu text color settings. The favorites menu on the IE toolbar is always black, however.
There is no secret. The text on the Favorites menu is always black and there's nothing skinners can do about it. The only way to make it readable all the time is to use a light colored menu background and a light colored menu highlight background.
I've been considering Fireworks MX myself. We recently bought the StudioMX 2004 suite here at work, and it looked like it might be a great skinning tool. It's encouraging to see someone as talented as grayhaze is using it. At the moment, Photoshop and SkinStudio are my tools of choice. I mainly skin WindowBlinds, but I do a little bit of everything really.
SysMetrix and all the DX mail objects I'm aware of only support POP3 mail servers. Hotmail uses a different protocol. I know Outlook Express can check Hotmail accounts, so it is possible to access it without using a web browser. I don't know if the protocol is available to developers outside of Microsoft though.
This one is a DesktopX object. https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?Library=3&skinid=1221
China Town by BoXXi came to mind right away. I'm sure there are others too. https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?Library=1&skinid=3024
