At this point we're really talking about 2 different populations, the vaccinated and the unvaccinated. This little graph says a lot. U.S. hospitalizations, Blue line is unvaccinated, green line is vaccinated. Putting social responsibilities aside, which I do not, we are all literally paying for that either through insurance premiums or taxes: <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/7/9/709321/b9141045-6dea-48db-b427-93700e9a8ac5.jpg" alt="" width="701

[quote who="Victechnical" reply="8" id="3828728"] Can you say more about how to do this? I went into WindowFX settings and changed the Start Menu animation (open and close) to the default, but the snow globe is still broken in the WindowBlind Red Christmas skin when WindowFX is enabled.

[quote who="Victechnical" reply="4" id="3828647"] Yes, I am using WindowFX v6. I turned it off and sure enough the animation problem went away. [/quote] In case it matters to you, I don't believe you need to entirely turn off WinFX, you just need to turn off the Start Menu animations within it. That way you can keep using whatever else you have turned on in it.

Reply to Smart recolouring recolours the titlebar only in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Sometimes you can get better results by leaving "Use smart recolouring" checked, unchecking the 2 sliders on the right that default to "Automatic", and moving those sliders around. It kind of depends on how much variation is in the skin's colors. Looks like the color you're wanting to change is green, so I'd scoot the "Primary skin colour" slider over to the green section. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/7/9/709321/eb7d2d6f-5b40-498d-ad96-1c89be87238e.jpg" alt=""

If you think they are on your machine, I'd use the Explorer search I mentioned above. Open up "This PC", click on the Local Disk (C:), then type in *.dream in the Search box in the upper right corner. It'll probably take it a couple of minutes. It will show you the path it finds any in. If it doesn't find them on C:, go back to "This PC" and do the same for the next drive, and so on. It should find them unless you had them stored in "My Documents" or similar un

Reply to Does anybody know how to make Windows Title bar transparent? in Curtains WinCustomize Forums

If you want blur on the titlebars you will need to use WindowBlinds - Curtains doesn't support titlebar blur. Otherwise the quickest comparison of the two in terms of creating a skin is: WindowBlinds is much more thorough with more skinning control and capability, and more complicated. Curtains is much simpler and more limited.
