Yup, I do the same thing, I type in something a little outrageous, -2000 or -3000, this sends it far enough off the screen that you don't see it at all when the please wait dialog appears on the screen. - nice screenshot, can't wait to see the finished project - what's the name of your wb skin?

[quote]Hell, we get better support from Microsoft themselves, and that in and of itself is sad. [/quote] Who better to support the operating system than it's creators?! Of course you get better support from Microsoft, XP is their product - kind of a weird statement to make. Although I feel for you that you are experiencing limitations using the 64bit version of XP, this can't be the first time you've run into problems with software not working on that platform.

You need LogonStudio Vista if you're running Windows Vista. The download link for LogonStudio Vista is the following: http://www.download.com/LogonStudio-Vista/3000-2347_4-10696253.html?tag=Stardock The download link for LogonXP (for winxp users) is: http://www.download.com/LogonStudio/3000-2344_4-10328444.html?tag=lst-0-1 If you're in the LogonStudio Vista skin section of this site, there is a link to purchase (?)

wait a minute.......if i make bootskins for windows xp, wouldn't it work on vista as well? No, the software is different because it's for Vista, I doubt that bootskins made for winxp will work in Vista - in fact I've heard people try to install & run the existing bootskin app with disastrous results. Based on how LogonVista works, I'm wondering if BootskinVista will work the same way, no way to change the progress bar or progress bar placement/length/gr

none of above Abba yup, "Dancing Queen" would make a great title for that blind! Seriously though, I think that doing a windowblind skin based on a music group/theme would be a great idea. I've been thinking about it myself after I recently watched a documentary on Metalica. Definitely a type of theme that doesn't get done enough (or

I found that messing with the topwindowframe height also messed up my quicklaunch & system tray icon sizes, don't know if this is what's causing your problem but I thought I would mention it. It happened to me when I was trying to make a very thin top windowframe, I mentioned in another discussion and some other people observed the same problem as well. Don't know why they're related but it might be something to check out at your end.

um.. press CTRL ALT DEL look for the program your want to close and click on it then click end progress Actually, you can use either CTRL SHIFT ESC to directly access the task manager or you can use CTRL ALT DEL but you forgot to mention that if you use CTRL ALT DEL you will then have to click on the "Task Manager" button and end the process or program from there.

- couple things, you're using the windowblinds name as part of your site name (which is just a moonfruit subdomain name you've set up with them). Isn't the windowblinds name a product name and therefore aren't there trademark/copyright issues in using this name as part of your own site address - wouldn't you have to ask stardock for permission to use their product name as your site name even if you are promoting the new windowblinds 6 product. The reason I ask is because your site has google a

(I have patched my uxtheme) - i haven't heard of this before, is this necessary for the proper install of wb6, I installed it recently without any problems and I didn't have to patch "my uxtheme" to do it either. Can someone tell me what the uxtheme patch provides? ... maybe I'm wrong but I thought proper protocol was download the update via stardock central , it's always worked for me
