You'll need the library number and the author ID, then just put it behind the skins.asp? in the link. skins.asp?library=1&AuthorID=2663 (I left off the beginning of the link so the text would show) Using this particular link should get you all of adni18's WindowBlinds skins.

In search of a few WB users with XP ... in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I'm in the final stages of updating my Matrix skin for WB but I need to see how it works on different machines. My main concern is with the start menu and user picture area. I'm on XP Pro and log onto a domain so I don't get the user picture on any skin. Vertical taskbars are also an issue, seeming to need different handling then horizontal ones. The beta skin I'm offering up is still hosed on quick-launch buttons for the vertical bars but it's just a matter of spending the time to fix it. <

It is on my list of skins to update but it may be awhile. I don't have a lot of time for skinning lately, work has once again kicked into high gear and I have as yet to finish the update to my Matrix skin. I will push it up the list though! Merc

dendillon, just to set the record straight, Green Machine is not a port of a k-scheme but was inspired by one. And it was never pulled and reworked. When the controversy started I pulled it just to get the maccies off my back but after discussing it with some people at SD I reposted it. Also, the k-scheme was by William Martin not William Bart. Mr. Bart and I have also had an encounter over skinning. The original version of my Das Boot skin used a title bar shape that was similar to on

Thanks guys! It's great to be back in the community, I've been lurking for awhile now. I'm gonna start off slow, just a few skin updates until I get accustomed to the new features in WB. From what I've seen so far, my old method of manually editing UIS files is going to be a thing of the past so learning SkinStudio is going to have to take priority.

Is the new version any better than previous ones? Last time I used it (over a year ago) it had a nasty habit of blowing up at exactly the wrong moment!

Thanks to Alexandrie's inspiration, I'm getting back into skinning WB. Obviously, lots has changed with it since I did my last skin so I'll be needing to harrass the guys at Stardock again. Any suggestions for an IRC client which works well on XP? TIA, Merc

The Professor has a nice white skin called White Dwarf which, although may not be a perfect match for i-pad, is very clean. It's a real sweet skin but may be a bit dated as it was created a long time ago. Just a thought!

I've been hangin' out in the fringes for awhile now - work has been extremely busy and we have a few people who have been called to active duty making it even busier! Hopefully I'll get a chance to do some new skins soon, but for now I am just enjoying all the awesome new skins that are being created.
