really? is it any buggy?

I'm a new poster here...but I kicks it with this transformation pack, and so far I haven't found anything to whine about...yet :whistle:

But I gotta say that this pack rocks, and even though I haven't tested the previous versions, I still find this one quite stable.

looks good, installed fine on my computer but i think i found a bug (not much off a bug, just a bit annoying), all the balloon tips on the taskbar, the ones next to the clock, all appear but they all show behind the taskbar

apart from that, good work!!

I'm pretty sure that's a bug in Windows, happens to me all the time no matter what visual style I'm using. The tooltips always come back after a reboot though.

    • It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
