Was that a cheap shot? Now I'm depressed. No sleep for me tonight - I'll be up worrying about being one of the "old guard"...

Well, I guess my way of thinking was similar to idea of "why load Microsoft Word when all you really need or want is Notepad?"
A good looking site with some great looking skins.
Sorry, Mike. I guess I didn't explain myself properly. Actually, I've been using WB on and off since v.50, and while OD did release a version called WB Basic (which really wasn't what I meant, but hey - the name sounded enticing ), I guess I was just addressing the issue of whether Stardock had considered a stripped down version. And when I meant skinning the taskbar, it wasn't just XP I was talking abo
Just curiosity more than anything, and I suppose this question should have probably been mailed to Stardock, but anyway... Has there ever been thought given to a "lite" version of WB? And when I say lite, I mean a very minimal version of WB. Not a uis1, but a full implementation of WB that ONLY skins the windows themselves. No StartBar, no XP extras, no menus - just the windows themselves. The

Listen to Moshi. MorpheusX and Misery were so far ahead of their time that they still look like they could be next weeks new releases.

And then he was a Journeyman again. Let's see: your title + 1.00 US will probably get you a cup of coffee anywhere but Starbucks...
@ Moshi! You never know - MS may come up with a patch to extend the Styles system, or it may release an SE version of XP. Anything for another sale...
Actually, it means the same in the US, Dor. You've just led a sheltered life. That, and Jafo has a naughty mind...
So what are you saying, Crumbut? Don''t come back till you''re older?
Ahh... and I managed to find 131z on the web...
heck, I still USE eFX...
But if it appears to be more stable, and use less memory than a new version, why not?
Why is that a weird idea?
OK, let the rock chucking begin... Seriously, is it still possible to download WB 1.3? Hey, what can I say? I like to play with toys. I installed an old version I had laying around (build 356), but I just wanted to find the last released version of 1.3.
Grim: I don't see them. Even after refreshing, I still get both mormegil and ddr as 0 uploads...
Darn! I swear I posted an answer to your question from work yesterday, but its not here now... Anyway, computer wise I use: New Hermes Vanguard Engraver (uses it's own proprietary software) Mimaki 24 in. plotter with Flexisign Pro software for the vinyl and sandblasting mask CorelDraw... what else <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" border=
Darn! Me wants to look - me loves vectors... DDR = Dead Dreamer = Misery? Now thats cool...
Name it. Everything from name badges to billboards. Plastic and brass engraving, vinyl, sandblasting, traditional paint, hand lettering, goldleaf, and I'm a part-time pin-head. Everything but RIPping (sign maker-skinner joke)
Oh, and Paxx -what's the sign industry? Look around - you'll trip over it when you walk out your door. See the gold leaf lettering on the bank window? How about the graphics on the side of the tow truck that just drove by? And that swinging sign over the "Curio Shop" door? Or that big banner that they hung on the side of the school proclaiming themselves "Regional Champions!"?<b
Just caught this. Yeah, been in the sign business for about 10 years now.
