you can browse the libraries here and download a theme you like. aftert you download it, if its a *.docktheme file just double click on it to apply otherwise if its a zip file, the .ini file wihtin goes into the themes folder, the icons go into their own folder in the images folder, background files go into the background folder, and any docklets go into the docklet folder. <img src="http://images.stardock.com

using parts from other skins is a little shifty... unless you modify each part so that it no longer resembles the original skin, its best to stay away from that. the best way to go would be to start from scratch and create your own graphics, you may use other skins as examples or inspiration, but at least this way the graphics are yours. if you're only creating the skin for personal use however and not publishing or distributing it anywhere, such as here on wincustomize, this would be ok, and yo

icons come in separate themes than windowblinds themes. sometimes an author might create a theme of icons to specifically match the windowblinds suite, and sometimes they just match their windowblinds theme with an already existing iconpackager theme. in either case, ask the authro what theme he used in the preview and then look for it in the iconpackager library. <A HREF="https://www.winc

i just tried it, at first what you said happened, and i kept on clicking at the line at the bottom until the taskbar came up. Then i unlocked and then locked it again, and that seemed to fix the problem, although it still doesnt work well at times, its a bug with windowblinds, perhaps you should report it to stardock to have them find a fix in the future version. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smi

and this also brings up a question about fate: is our future already defined? in that case, in a negative pov, it would be like watching a tape on rewind, but since it's already there and everything has already happened, noone would be able to do anything to change what would happen in the future. The same goes for this guy in antitime, as he is also a part of this timeline, even though he is going thourgh it backwards, everything has still already been predefined. <A HREF="htt

I believe this has the same issue on OS X. yet when a really good dark skin comes

i like that start menu btw have patience with toolbar icons... they're a lot like creating regular icons, and since ive started making toolbar icons, ive begun to appreciate all those icon skinners out there all the more <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle" ALT="Powered

well... i guess you could do that for toolbar icons, and it probably would be perfectly acceptable, as they fit in with the rest of the skin and such, but perhaps a few differences in the iconpictures might make the icons overall more useful (you dont need to draw a different icon for each, but just to differentiate bewteen different icons a bit, maybe recolor them, or align them differently (rite now, maybe rotate the back icon so that the arrow points back, and the forward icon so that the arr

for transparency in sysmetrix, you need to save it with transparent areas in 'magic pink' , which is rgb 255,0,255 if you want to add translucent areas, such as a shadow, etc., you can use a workaround wich is supported in the newer versions of sysmetrix: u create a background file that is all white, then you create another png file that is going to be ur real background wich has your translucent parts (this will be actual transparency, not magic pink). then, under sysmetrix configurati
