Reply to What happened to all the skinners? Anything new in the works? in Community WinCustomize Forums

Personally I've become very bored with trying to completely finish a WindowBlinds skin. I don't use the Windows taskbar/systray, or startmenu, so I really don't care to skin it. I'm have a hard time finishing skins as well. I like designing them, making concepts in PhotoShop, but actually assembling them ju

I haven't seen anything that makes me want to upgrade to Longhorn. I've got all the eye candy and added functionality I need with my ODNT subscription and I use a lot less resources. There's a lot more to Longhorn than meet the eye. It's just not what you usually hear about.

Well, it could be that precisely BECAUSE somebody doesn't like the way the OS works or looks that he would want to customize it. But changing the layout of the GUI won't have any effect of the inner working which make up for most of the OS... Basicly any OS these days can have their GUI changed.

In WindowsFX, under the Shadow setting, there is a checkbox labeled: "Use shadows defined by the current WindowBlinds skin". How can you define a shadow in a WB skin? I could not find anything in SKS, and I have found no other documentation...

I can't recommend DesktopX for kiosk machines since it lacks basic features like being able to lock a layout to prevent users from dragging icons etc. around and messing up the layout =\ Are you refering to the IconX feature?

Even though I'm most likely to keep with Firefox I'll update to IE7 asap even though it might not be an required download. This is because IE is more than a browser, it's a whole platform. You got an array of programs that use the IE control, you got chm help files which uses the IE platform and you got HTA application which uses the IE platform. Loads of stuff other than just the browser rely on IE.
