ok so i revisited my mediamonks litestep theme when i realized i could finally rebuild it the way i had originally intended. now each panel is its own draggable box that snaps to the others. xlabel is my savior! showing three separate screenshots which display horizontal, vertical, and miniature modes:

Nice idea! (Y)  ;)

Once you have created the Toolbar you like, with all the programs you want initiated off of it....Save the file to a floppy, then it's very easy to install it if you have to reformat or work on your PC. I have my toolbar saved in My Docs. If I reformat or do HDD work, the second toolbar is brought back with just one click off the floppy. ;)

no, I meant that I changed to Windowblinds, using it now although I never liked it before, but I must say that WB is as good as using msstyles!

Well....That's great there Ray, we're glad you consider Blinds equal to MsStyles.. :D :cool:

Some WB skins use less resources than the msstyles. e.g. the WB theme I am using in my screenshot above. The newest 4.3 is really better than in the old version 3.xx days when it was a resource hog.

LOL!!... I hear ya.

I'm not going into the multiple advantages of using Window Blinds...I've never really concerned about the minimal resources it uses.Just buy more machine.. Pump It Up...2 3 Pump it up!!;)

I've been using Blinds since it came into existance, not once has it ever caused a concern within my resources..Although, as ya say there Frease, the older versions grunted a lil.. LOL!! I've also owned and continue to updgrade my TGT Style Soft (Just For The Fun Of It) ;)

Cheers Bud :cool:

    • Finally we can whole-heartedly recommend the AMD 9070 GRE thanks to this discount by Sayan Sen Earlier this month at Computex 2026 AMD released the Radeon RX 9070 GRE for a global audience. We reviewed the GPU and it scored 8 out of 10 for gaming and 7.5 out of 10 for productivity including things like AI performance. The card launched for $550 which we thought was a bit on the higher side, though currently you are getting the chance to get the Gigabyte Gaming variant of the GPU for just $500 thanks to this discount (purchase link under the specs table down below). As such we can finally whole-heartedly recommend this GPU. The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specs of the Gigabyte Gaming RX 9070 GRE OC is given in the table below: Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Gaming Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB GDDR6 GPU (GV-R907GREGAMING OC-12GD): $549.99 + $50 discount with promo code in mail => $499.99 (Sold and Shipped by Newegg US) This Newegg deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified. This is a first-party seller link (at the time of article publishing); ensure that you also purchase from a first-party seller link only. If you don't like it or want to look at more options, check out the previous deals that we have covered, OR you can also visit Amazon US deals page.
