It has been quite a long time since my last skin...Time goes by so fast and I have to say life is like a box of chocolates. Hard disk failure, mainboard crashed and Blog space down, I got much bad news in the past weeks...

Finally, I get back to skin and now introduce you the skin I have planned at least 3 months.

I got the idea when I installed Win Vista 5270, and with transparent elements, I hope you can enjoy this skin!

Love the startbar/menu seriously tasty, although i think the min/max buttons would of looked better without the scalloped bit ?

or maybe just a tad bigger and maybe with glow effects of some sort. I never understood why so many skinners cram the 3 min/max/close buttons so close together and then make them, so small. this one isn't as bad as some, but it makes it harder to hit the right button if you are in a hurry and running high resolution.

This skin is awesome! However, I do have two issues. First of all, I have a weird bug where the titles are misaligned with the title bars:

I tried seeing if there was anything I could edit in Skinstudio to correct the problem but I'm a bit new to the program and haven't seen anything.

The lesser issue is that I have quicklaunch in its own toolbar at the bottom of my screen (My Desktop). However, it is not transparent. It is white, and I would like it to be transparent, if possible. I didn't see any options for transparency/translucency (like for the taskbar). As an alternative solution I tried modifying the .bmp used for the background to match the color of my desktop. However, while the colors did match, I was left with a white border around my toolbar that I haven't found out how to get rid of.

Any help would be much appreciated--thanks!

the way that its recommended to 'fix' is to change your font size to 20% up from default. that fixed it for me.. i wish there was a way to have it just 'work' w/o having to mess with font sizing.

I had that first problem with the skin too, I think I fixed it by altering one of the content margin values (top, bottom?) for the PerPixel Caption or PerPixel Text Background.

Sorry I'm a little vague, it was back in April.

Sweetness, it worked! I also did try the font manipulation, but all the sizes are negative... And after altering them WB froze when I tried to apply the skin. Thanks for your help though--still working on that white toolbar.

Same problem, that's why i stopped using it, but besides that its a really nice skin.

    • 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: Specification Value Boost Clock Up to 2920 MHz Game Clock Up to 2340 MHz Stream Processors 3072 Memory Clock 18 Gbps Memory Size 12 GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 192-bit Memory Bandwidth 432 GB/s Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Max Resolution 7680 × 4320 Max Displays (Multi-view) 4 Card Dimensions 288 × 132 × 50 mm (L × W × H) Recommended Power Supply 700 W Power Connectors 2 × 8-pin Display Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b 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.
