Very well done. I really like the colors and the layout. The only problem I have is I use the scroll effect for the programs in the start panel, and I get a black background. Thanks!

'Fairyy~' - I've never attempted to make a compact start menu
so if you could share your tips, tricks & advice I would be forever in your debt. 
Thanks again.

Open wb config ..highlight the skin you want to edit ...click on " edit in skin studio "
When the skin comes up in the preview ..to the left of the preview click once on " Xp Taskbar " Then in preview tap the " start panel User Pane " Now..to the right of preview where it says " Attributes " highlight the line " Size of the user pane " Below preview image you should see the Values in the silver banded area. Your going to change the " Width " normally I start off by trying 250 but on your blind that was too small ..i used the figure of 276 ...then go up top to " File " Save as " then name it Neon xp-Comp ..hit ok ....then shut wb config..reopen and apply the Compact and see how it looks. If its not small enough or still to large just go change number again..but just hit " save " then apply blind again and check. Hopefully these directions made some sense. Im not good at explaining.

Thanks for the reply 'Fairyy~'.
It all makes sense & I understood everything !
!! ( I only had to read it once as well 
)
I've got a funny feeling my next skin might just have a compact start menu.
Thanks again for your feedback & advice.

I have a problem. I installed it on my computer, and it worked fine. Then I got proffesional edition of XP on my computer. I had to format my computer. Then I reinstalled WindowBlinds. Next Neon fire, I noticed that the start button on the buttom toolbar would not show up. Neither would the _, square, and X buttons on the top of a window. It did this to alot of the skins I downloaded. Can you tell me what happened?

sorry 'Time Out Boy'. I have no idea why XP Pro is doing that to Windowblinds.
I've always used XP pro & never had any of the problems you've stated above.
Every once & a while the tansparency fails but all I do is re-boot the PC in it seems to fix itself.
Maybe they can find you answers in the wincustomize 'Support' forum. These guys are normaly pretty hot on fixes & bugs,
Sorry I couldn't help more.

A friend and I have been working on porting this to Trillian and we were wondering if you would grant us permission to do a public release.
