iyiniyin, I don't believe a single person, even at deviantART, has commented on the paticular issue I have with the skin. You can't grab the transparent part with your mouse and move the window. I do a lot of window moving when working with graphics and multiple apps, so this is very irritating. I know you have a "grabber" on the top left to help with this. Now, if you could make the top bar semi transparent to allow the mouse to grab any portion of the bar, there would be no need to even have a "grabber" as we see on the top left of each window. Would a semi transparent border achieve this? I'm sure you must have tried that...maybe not.

Tadad offers a skin with thin horizontal lines in the border, which allows you to click and reposition the window. This seems to work only half the time because I seem to miss grabbing one of the horizontal lines when I try to grab and move the window. Here's the link: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/22194544/ Does all this make sense to you? If this can be fixed, then a definite 10/10! Great skin never the less. - Webtrance

TO add to Qx9's comment...It looks like the original VISTA skin seems to not have a complete transparent border but a "FUZZY?BLURRY" type, Maybe though's that had actually seen the MS Vista may comment on this! STILL This skin by iyiniyin is a really winner and I bet after some updates iyiniyin will make even better!!

Looks good,but I too have the font issue, and have had no luck finding the Ariel Unicode MS font - sigh

So I removed it, went back to the skin I had been using, closed WB, then reopened it, choose this skin and the font issue disappeared

Roger that. I'm sure with XP and WB limitations, it's probably impossible to make the border translucent, with just enough color/fill to grab. That's alright though, it's just takes getting used to...to grab the upper left part of the window. This is still an awesome skin! - Q

Looks great. I think the transparency is less appealing on some wallpapers though, espeacially those with large areas of white or black. It just looks like a window outline. Looks awesome with the wallpaper you've chosen though. So where does one find that wallpaper you're using.

Here's the thing... I've been using Kol's skin for the last couple of weeks, and it is indeed a work of art.
And... I've kept looking all over the web, and I mean EVERYWHERE, for the Aero Glass effect, whether it's a WB skin or not.

No, this isn't a perfect replication of Aero Glass, but it IS by far, the finest emulation I've come across to date!

I did have to change the default font to "Segoe UI", in "User Overrides", but that did the trick... I already had the font on my system, 'cause either it came on my PC, or it installed when I installed Kol's theme. No biggie...

What I've really gotta say, though, is that this is one heck of a creative effort! It took real smarts to figure out how to get this effect to work in WB 4.6, and you've done it!!!!! That's really why I keep coming back to this community... to see who's coming up with the fresh ideas!

So, give yourself a big pat on the back here, for a tricky job EXTREMELY well done, and I'm sure we're all looking forward to seeing what you come up with next! Congratulations!

Right click the taskbar, deselect "lock the taskbar", then left click it and drag to the top of your screen.
