I &quot;had&quot; not touched a drop of alchol for twenty five years, but I decided &quot;two&quot; years ago to enjoy a glass of wine with my meals or when I&acute;m having a ruff day to get through due to personal reasons, I hope I said that clear enough for you two to understand what I said lol......... but if that&acute;s to heavy for ya, I&acute;ll quit with the wine jokes lol

I believe Jerry has a nanoblind skin here at Skinbase. I think he did ;) He used to have one at deviantART too. Not sure if it&acute;s still there....

NP.. I&acute;ll give you another call, but I will not be using email or messagers until I sort out my firewalls and complete my new XP install, restore backups, scan for viruses.. and then scan some more. It could take me a week just in case anyone needs to know. 8)

where is Frogy when you need him... oki, while we are discussing finer points of WB skinning, lets talk about other WB usefull/useless functions and plugins. <BR> <BR>I have my clock visible at all times no matter what shell I am using.. so I personally don&acute;t see a great need for clock plugin to be included in the skin <BR> <BR>There is also the WinAmp plugin which gives you remote control over your WinAmp. If you already have such plugin installed with your LS shell then you don&acute;t need it.. but most folk don&acute;t have this option, so I wonder how popular that plugin actually is and how often skinners include it. <BR> <BR>And then there are animations. The best form of eye candy and often used as part of a &acute;highlighting&acute; of the active window. Not many skinners know this, but you can include animations on all 4 sides of the skin. I think I attempted that with my nanoBlind work back in the days when my pooter couldn&acute;t even render the animations properly.. hehe ;) <BR> <BR>I like transparency regions in the skin, for one rather usefull function. Because I often run LiteStep as a shell and work in full screen mode, when I right click on my desktop (through the transparency region in the skin) I get my LS PoPup. 8)Transparency regions however slow down your system especially when you try to drag the window. Still ,lot of skins are made with the neat use of transparency. <BR> <BR>Any other thoughts on the functionality of WB?
