We all know that WindowBlinds 6 can change the overall look and feel of an OS. But you can take it a step further. I've discovered that you can "skin" the WindowBlinds software itself. The entire UI is made up of PNG images located in the "UI" folder. This folder is usually found somewhere in the "Public" directory in Vista, and "All Users" in XP.
There are about 15 images in this folder, which makes up for the majority of the WindowBlinds UI. If you want to use your own images in place of the default ones, I suggest renaming the originals to >filename<_2.png. (Notice the "_2" at the end.) Rename your desired image to the original filename. (i.e. "Background.png".) Here are some things you should note:
->Transparency does NOT work. It'll only make the UI darker.
->Having a missing UI file will make that portion of the UI pitch black.
->It's best to make the images you're replacing to be the same resolution as the original. The images don't stretch.
It's hard to explain all of this. I encourage you to play around with the UI files and come up with your own original WB interface.
