I wish the next version of WindowBlinds would......

Just do two new things...

1. Let you use a separate graphic for the startbutton on the vertical taskbar

2. Let you use a magic pink mouseover for the "All Programs" instead of having to fiddle with making the graphics "hide" the mouseover and just being tricksy about it.

Toolbar sizers have been skinnable since WB first came out.

Hippy, I think he means the black arrows when the taskbar is partially hidden. Same as the black arrows in the drop menus.

I'd like to see the little glyphs on the task pane skinnable.

I'm talking about the music note, etc. just to the left of 'My Music', Picture Tasks', etc.

the unlocked toolbar vertical sizer


Unfortunately it is skinned, but it takes its graphics from the horizontal taskbar grippers

no graphics,just a solid color,...would be great if it used the vertical taskbar sizer.
and what pictoratus said...and the throbber(tho I finally regedited mine away)...a window background for all those windows that dont have shellstyles(especially a window graphic with borders and margins for drop shadows and stuff)

I'd like to see the next version of Windowblinds make me coffee and a bagel in the morning and do my work for me while I spend all my time skinning.

A new tutorial would be nice so I can figure out them XP Bars and Chunks It's always nice to open up a new version of SKS and go "WooHoo" a new feature...er...what do I do with it, except Delete the unknown...didn't skin it before....no need to skin it now.

MDI buttons....use magic pink and transparency...they don't show in tooltips or PSP8....uncheck transparency then the background has to match the menubar, which means, your tooltips have to match as well or they look dooky (thanks for this new expression I added to my vocabulary, IR )

Maybe make the text a different font on the Start Panel(More Pr. & Places). Very Annoying the way it is, stuck with the same ol same ol. Also on the User Pane, be able to control the position of the User Name just a wee bit better, like the way it used to be.

I wouldn't mind seeing adequate translucency support on the start menu too.

Translucency in the taskbar and titlebar would be good too.

1) Make the menu content margins work.
2) Being able to skin the arrows in the More Programs Menu. Or at least change the color of them. Black is boring and sometimes invisible.
3) Allow TGA or at least have the magic pink to work in the menus. This way we can have some shape to the menus. Square is BORING.
4)Fix my most recent bug in the Start Menu animation. I WANT TO RELEASE MY SKIN SOMEDAY.....


Oh, and Thank you.
