Sorry...I can't edit my previous post.

I think this is a bug in WMP10 with this WB skin.

Superb skin. I am loving it besides the fact I don't have glowing titlebar buttons. I downloaded the latest 4.51 version but they still don't glow. What's going on?

It says: Download 4.5.1

[EDIT] I see, 4.59 is the latest version, but only for OD subscriber...

KoL, are you going to add animations (copy - del - move)?

Virtually every WindowBlinds skin I have ever used has a problem with skinning that bar. I think it is an issue with WindowBlinds itself.

The skin looks great. I think with the thick borders that it looks better than the .msstyle version!

Very nice. I'd love to see a thin taskbar version.

Nice! The thick borders and the glow effects are great. :yes:

Even the MSSTYLE version suffers from that problem. In fact almost all VSes and WB skins have a problem with this button. Blame Microsoft for not giving us an option to get rid of that bugger. ;)

Yep I think the problem is Microsoft, not WindowBlinds or msstyles. I dont know why they add that ugly button there :no:

Yes, but the problem is greater with WindowBlinds. Granted this is pretty nitpicky, but in WindowBlinds that button looks cosmetically much worse than on a .msstyle (I can't be more specific as I don't have WindowBlinds installed right now to look at). Also, in WindowBlinds when you turn that title bar on it resizes Windows Media Player, which is my greatest annoyance.

[klop]

I dont see the glow effects on my computer :blink:

Probably because you can set metrics and dramatically change things in WB which could cause things like that to be drawn a bit smaller or whatever which could cause things like that where an MS Style pretty much just makes the same assumptions that the native interface (classic) makes. You kind of have to make a choice between being able to do more or being totally compatible.

I am totally in love with the glows you used on the buttons. Wow. It reminds me vaguely of Vladstudio's themes, but this is even nicer and the entire look is much more refined.
