I uploaded a new sysmetrix and quicknote for this great skin, but I don't know if it will get approved. But, it matches this theme very nice I think. I hope all us Corona fans will get a chance to see it.

Joshua,
I think the problem is your operating system or your windowblinds version. It works perfectly and looks flawless for me. This theme was updated for WinXP and windowblinds v4. So, if you don't meet these criteria you may have such problems.

By the way, for all Corona fans.
I've uploaded three sysmetrix and three quicknotes for this awesome theme. A fourth is coming tommorrow. The names are GroovyBaby, Corona, Corona II, and coming tommorrow, Corona IIv2. All of them have matching quicknotes in the sysmetrix folder.
For MrGupps - You didn't say which operating system or WB version you are using. Like I said, my version using WB4 and WinXP is perfect.

Somehow I also encountered the problem in installing this theme as Shani Lyric indicated. I have the latest version of WB 4.00b[b] and am not quite sure if this is the problem (I was sure that 4.0 working fine with this skin). The 4.00b[b] shows nothing on wbload when trying to install this theme. Weird.

David you didn't say whether you were running WinXP and WB4. Do you have a US version of windows too? I don't know about the international versions. Also, after you install the theme it won't load automatically. Personally, I can change from theme to theme with out any problems. But, you have to load the theme properly from display properties. If you double click it and then go to display properties it should be there.

I guess a few people will have problems but that is system dependent. Other programs that do the same function might conflict. That is why I don't run Aston Desktop or 3DNA or other types with windowblinds. The dll's might conflict too. I tried Aston with Windowblinds and what a mess I had. Aston changes the shell entirely and I don't think windowblinds like that. No one clearly states what the problem is they are having.
WBLOAD is just the exe. It doesn't show anything about the theme. If you want to see the theme go to display properties. Maybe some people are trying to run object bar with it. You need to give clearer explanations. I don't know if this is the proper place for troubleshooting individual problems.

ChasUGC,
I did run WinXP(SP2)/WB4/ObjectBar/ObjectDock on ThinkPad. Yes, I also invoked WB from Display Properties ("Appearance"). The XP Cornoa will NOT be able to find/install from here anymore (nor does it work from WB Advanced Configuration window by "install skin from disk" option)
I am not expecting to solve the problem here (still wait WB4 to become more mature on the later on version). All I want to do is just reporting the glitch that I have found. Since I'm also a big fan on XP Corona, there is no doubt that I like to see it installed in most of WB platforms.
I don't know that you meant of US/Int'l version of Windows. There is only one version of XP as far as I know.

I have read, but the skin looks ok to me, if does not looks like screenshot it's because you are not using right version of Wblinds, so it's not my fault.

Chen and Lin,
I wish more people would comment on this skin. I don't know how it looks on a thinkpad. I suggest that you try to redownload it. Sometimes you can get a bad download. Also, you may have installed WB incorrectly. It is strange that the only two complaining have chinese surnames. Where did you get windowblinds? Maybe from one of the chinese hack sites? Maybe you got a bad hacked version. This skin has been downloaded 113,000 times and only a very few complain about it. I think you need to look closer at your systems or source and don't blame this skin. 113,000 people can't be all wrong. Like I said, this skin looks and performs perfect for me.

Update- Maybe I am wrong about the hacked version. No offense intended. If I am, maybe you installed WB 4.0 over the top of 3.5 or maybe your virus scanner messed up the install. Try uninstalling it, removing the directory, turn off running background programs and maybe even defrag your hard drive and then try to install it. You will get the cleaniest possible installation that way. Good Luck.

I just updated to the most recent version WB (4.00b[b].002) from Stardock Central (ergo - definitely NOT a hacked version) and XP Corona would not load. It did appear in the skins list but when I select it I have no window properties at all. The only way I have of closing a window is ALT-F4. I tried to redownload it and now it simply doesn't even appear in the skins list.

I fixed it. I uninstalled and reinstalled. It still wasn't showing in the list so I went into the folder. Inside the folder I found not only the 'XP Corona' folder but also a folder 'xp_corona' that only had a partial set of files in it. I deleted both and reinstalled the skin. Everything works great now!
