I love the skin its great! Glad Windowblinds 5 came out for those who haven't purchased Object Desktop as I was finally able to purchase it. I was using the free version and I did have to purchase it in order for the newer transparent type skins to work correctly. Note: I was glad to purchase it as I'd always wanted to in order to use the 'colorization' option. I'm loving playing around with my new 'paid for' version. Oh, I wanted to ask if anyone has any suggestions on good icons to use in Icon Explorer for the transparent skins. I've got a few I like but would love some new ones. Thanks!

hey, this skin is wonderful indeed. i had a few quibbles. i don't really like the borders, but i don't have WB5 so they're not transparent, so i removed them. no biggie, looks how i want it now. however, i have a HUGE issue, why are my windows minimizing to the system tray? active windows are fine, but every window i minimize now goes into the system tray instead of staying in the taskbar! what's causing this? it only started after i applied your skin. other than that, i love it and i'd love to keep it, but this issue has really been bugging me! thanks!

ah ha! ignore my last comment, i was able to edit it so the windows minimize normally, not to the system tray.

ok, sorry for posting again but i had another question. there's some places on the start menu where the arrows for another deeper menu show up, and some places where they don't. they never show up in the first level, but in the second level under programs they do. they show up most of the time under control panel, but within the control panel menu they don't show up. see attached pics.

Glad you found out how to restore "normal" minimize
About arrows : I noticed that also in the "Favorites" menu : some items have the arrows, some others don't... I guess this is a small bug in WB, as it happens also with other skins than mine. Stardock guys will probably fix this soon as they always do.

No plans about WinAmp for the time being... But if you'd like to make it, tell me and I'll send you a permission (and my blessing !)

Absolutely love this skin - well done!

However i'm not too fond of the 'herringbone pinstripe' which runs through the scroll and progress bars, any chance of making these clear ??

Does the fact that I'm running the shareware version have anything to do w/ it?
Im getting Object Desktop for Christmas.

Sorry! Font too big!

and yua I was playing around w/ the aura taskbar and i worked fine! The borders for it and along w/ dogmax work great too

I don't think it has anything to do with the shareware version...
Try uninstalling the skin (make sure "A Touch of Glass" folder is deleted when it's done) and re-installing it again. Maybe this could help.
btw : The systray minimizing thing goes with non-transparent version of the skin.
