I don't see much point of all the articles analysin pre-alpha products as it where the real deal, even though they do include "I know it's not released yet". In the same way I promptly browse on the moment I see someone start of "This OS is better than that OS...". Too many opinions, IMO.

hmm... I had a look at it. I noted that after DesktopX is done reading the nessesary files and registry keys for the startup it kept opening, querying and closing keys related to the desktop wallpaper as well as opening, closing and reading information from the wallpaper file it self. (And I have not set any wallpaper in my current DX theme.) It seems a bit odd. I might try different themes and objects and see if there is any difference.

You might need to rebuild the icon chache. I think you can do that with the free TweakUI tool from Microsoft's PowerToys. Try that or search for utilities that can rebuild icon caches.

Hmm. I got to try this. Wonder how it's like. Find it a bit odd to see a "professional design tool" from Microsoft. Now don't get me wrong, I like Windows, I think it's very good, but a graphical design tool from Microsoft just seems a bit odd to me.

If they are taking on the professional design m

I really liked MikeB314's WB skin Tronnix . However, as I am sure many of you noticed, the listview headers in Thunderbird became hard to read because they do not automaticly use the correct colour. I knew that Firefox and Thunderbird uses a XUL sheme for

Thanks for the piece of information Daiwa. I tried it and it worked just fine. All thought I noticed that the font sizes in that section and the ones in the rest if the skin where treated differently. In FF the text becae really big. But the solution was to duplicate the font and reduse the text size of the new font. -cheers!

Hummings aren't all that bad, all though you're right in beeing suspicious of new humms. Something a friend of mine should have been before the humming suddenly changed to a "Pang! Rattattattattatta Clonk Rattattattatta Ping Bonk Rattattattattattatta". I was there when i happend and it really is one of the last things you want to hear comming form your computer except for perhaps "Pop! Fszzzzzzh...." followed by a tiny stream of smoke.
