Or, if you don't set your tabbed dock like Dave said above, you could always just mouse-over the tab you wish to activate and click on the tab.

Reply to What would you like to be skinnable in WindowBlinds that is not currently? in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Currently, the text for headerbars and buttons can be recolored, but they use the window text color for certain apps like Firefox (buttons) and Thunderbird (headerbar). It would be nice if the text color settings for these things would stay consistent with the skinners settings. BTW- thanks for this thread. It's a great idea!

The taskbar and buttons underwent a slight redesign in order to keep with a consistent look. I fell in love with the window close buttons after I finished them, so I applied the same styling and lighting effects here.

At a stand still with my customer projects for the moment, so guess what I did tonight? You guessed it, I skinned! Made a lot of progress, too. Right now, I'd say I'm about 90% done with XP / Vista light.

[quote]lookin nice, reminds me of Vienna,[/quote] Everyone gets their inspiration from somewhere. [e digicons];)[/e] I of course am using it now, and IMO it bears resemblance to Vienna only because it's dark & glassy. Vienna has a lot more gray. I'm using more blacks. Though I drew some inspiration from Rapture, to me it looks totally different. Part of why I decided to do this is because I cannot find a dark glassy theme that I think is absolutely perfect for my tastes

Reply to Themed Skins, why some WBs get them and others don't in Community WinCustomize Forums

I also think some of this may be due to the WB skinner forming a team of skinners who can collectively create a suite. For instance, vStyler has his team who always come together to make matching skins for his blinds. I pulled in a few people to help with Carbon Fibre GTV, but I don't have a "team" per se. If the WB skinner doesn't have a team, or doesn't pull others in on purpose, then it's really up to others who like a WB and have the time to produce matching skins to contact the a
