I am planning to redo all of Nuvems themes at some point with new plugins (with his permission of course) as he is too busy to update them himself. I will be starting with Turbo Deluxe tonight (hopefully). His themes are too fantastic to stay in the current state.
Leangreen shows the XP startbutton and quicklaunch just above the non-XP taskbar in the screenshot.
If a theme is set up correctly a change in resolution should not cause any problems. Basically if you create a theme in the smallest resolution it can expand tyo the largest. However if there isn't physically enough room on screen for the objects you will run into problems. Multi monitor support is still being looked into I believe. OB can certainly do odd shaped menus and could cope with most of that theme. The menu's however would not be lined up as you have it in that pic
CPU usage depends a lot on what objects you have on the desktop, whether they use alpha blending and also whether they are animated. It alos depends on whether your CPU is doing all the hard work or if it can offload some of it to the GPU (ie it has hardware acceleration for alpha) for per pixel alpha. I'm on an Athlon XP 1700+ with a Radeon 8500 and DX is stable at about 8-9% CPU when using ThredzX which has a fair bit of animation and alpha blending.

Mandrake 8.2 I believe. It was the only distro that had support for my Speedtouch USB Modem in the kernel. I really didn't fancy messing about with recompiling the kernel as my first task. Also has support for my WinTV card. With VMWare and XP I can use PSP instead of the Gimp which I just can't brng myself to use. And VNC means I can attach to it from almost any machine with a web browser and java support (although I can do that with XP too).
One main reason for going the linux way is cost. I work for a university and most of the students only use the computers in the labs for Email, Internet and word processing for their assignements. If those machines could have Linux with Star Office or something similar instead of Windows NT, 2K, XP or whatever windows incarnation we are on it would save a lot of money. As the university is investigating the possibility of this I have installed Linux at home (Mandrake Distro) to find o
This sounds like incorrect DLL's or something to me. Have you tried removing and reinstalling component manager? If possible drop into stardocks irc irc.stardock.com channel is #stardock. Then you can talk in realtime to the developers and maybe sort something out there and then.
Happy Birthday!!!!!!
Alos think about how you felt when someone copied your skin to an msstyle without asking you.
You could always explain what you are doing and send him a screeny of the redone images and see what he says. It's always best to go to the source when dealing in these matters.

/me remembers starting a hud look theme in DesktopX. Was that you who suggested it at skinz.org? That green hud idea was what inspired Minimalism 2000. Not green but could have been. Not sure if I still have the images or not for the original one as I think my hard disk died after starting it.
Do you have something called CommonNames installed? This has a buggy hook which does not pass on messages to WB correctly. Uninstall it and the problem should go away.
What clock and where from?
Personally I avoid cut down versions of software and usually avoid nag screens. Convenience of paying for a piece of software is the main reason I buy a specific piece of software. I live in the UK and have no Credit Card. My Dad has one which he lets me use very occasionally. (Usually once a year to pay Stardock ) If I had a credit card I probably would buy a lot more. I can use my debit card for most sof
oops. that last one had a http : // (without spaces) which also turned into a link.
put an email address or a web address in. eg [email protected] = pjpowell @ clara.co.uk (without the space) and http://www.pjpowell.clara.co.uk = http://www .pjpowell.clara.co.uk (without the space)

I presume GreenReaper means CommonNames must be UNinstalled.
That should have been 'I prefer a skin to look nice than to have lots of features at the expense of looks'
I have to say that making Gilla colorisable would not have worked adequately with WB the way it was when the skin or the contest were started. WB did not apply colorisation to the [colours] section correctly until very recently (and as far as I know still has some issues). I have no doubt if WB supported it correctly that malform would have included that feature (since he asked me about the very same subject). To me I prefer a skin to look nice than to have lots of features (Of course if it h
I think that smartbuttons dll is an older one which does not support changing it. I haven't found how either.
What graphics card? It's most likely display drivers. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q235618 has info on it. Try changing back to standard VGA and see if that fixes it. If it does then you need to change your drivers. Either upgrade to the most recent or downgrade to the last official non-beta release of the drivers.
Mine's March 19th. /me feels like he's repeating someone else.
C'mon. Are you gonna stand for that? EXILE! EXILE! EXILE! EXILE! /me runs away from the oncoming melee
