A great wood skin, Jebland. The wall link gives a 404 error to me too. If you could please put a current, working link to the wallpaper, I'd like to have it! 
Font could be bigger, but I can live with it. Great job!

Thanks, everybody. I am working on an update to add the bits that couldn't be skinned at the time that I made this skin, but can be skinned now. The wallpaper is a Propaganda tile that is open source but the site is gone. I will try to include the tile in the new update.
Update should be ready in a few days!

Very good skin. Perfect for the wood lovers out there.
Window frames show attention to detail, "burned in wood" look by font choice is also excellent (although the width of font causes some text wrapping issues).
Scroll up size might be one too far, and the task pane of Windows Explorer is unskinned.
Overall, excellent first skin effort. Attention to details shows and the rating reflects that.

Good UI design. It's usable, which is the 100% acid test for me. Text in all windows is clear and readable... and it looks sweet!

Thank you so much for this upgrade. This is my favorite wood blind. Can't wait to load it up!

Man this is a nice looking set. Am using the icons and the wall, looks great. There's is an oddity which I don't think I've ever seen before: Using Firefox v1.0, all the menus and right click context menus are showing just the left side of the menu frame, there's no content (or bottom menu frame). Works fine in IE and everything else that I tried xplorer2, explorer, IE, OE.
Just tried it on Thunderbird and the same problem occurs so maybe it just Mozilla stuff? Don't know.
Just tried it with Sunbird, menu content was messed up but the entire menu frame was showing.

love the skin. I am having some issues with it 
when in a window, if i click on a window in my start bar, it wont pull up the window. I have to minimize all windows then pull it up. Also, id love if you could add being able to max. the window by double clicking the title bar in IE.
but! i *love* the skin!

Thanks werewolf. I appreciate your taking the time to comment. I only use IE and OE and have never seen that behavior. I'm sorry it's not working right for you. Please try loading it in SkinStudio, go to Personality/Menubar and remove the attribute for Menu Border (MenuBorder.bmp) and see if that helps.
This is an obsolete setting I left in there because I thought it might be needed on older versions of Windows. It that fixes it, I will update the skin. Thank you for your help.

Iramy, thank you for the comment. You can change the behavior when you doubleclick the titlebar. Doubleclick the Windowblinds icon in your system tray. Go to User Overrides. Click on Advanced Settings. The first set of options is Doubleclick Settings. Just choose "Maximize Window" and all your Windowblinds skins will exhibit that behavior. As for the other issue, I don't know what could be causing that.

Thanks jebland for the tip. I tried what you said and nothing really changed. I have included a screenshot so you can see what is happening. It might actually be the right side of the menu which is only being drawn.

This is so bizarre. Does it do that on all three styles?

werewolf,
I installed FireFox (well, I hadn't screwed up my computer in a long time so why not). If you load SkinStudio and go to "Fonts for Classic widgets" and delete the setting for System Menu Fonts, that fixes it. I put that setting in so the menus would show the dungeon font. I guess FireFox just threw up at having a custom font. Sorry for the problem.

I have the same problem with Netscape 7.2. Other skins do the same thing.
You need a cursor to match your theme. I find that "Gold Cursors" by J J Ling works well. Simple, without a lot of animation. Curious to see what YOU would do.
A wallpaper that is more "woodsy" would be nice. Perhaps some type of grain or a marquee would work. It would be hard to keep the grained visual elements separate. Your selection meets that requirement well.
Keep creating!
