Whoa! That was madness!

So, when is the next craze? WFX2.5 anyone?
Odd thing is, I'm actually more excited about new Stardock product released than getting presents at Christmas these days.

Btw, a big thank you to all the people at Stardock for the great work they are doing.

I get that way from a new Windowblind. I actually clap out loud. What a dork I am.

Agreed, thanks to Stardock

I'm very anxious for some WindowFX work... there's still major compatibility issues with a number of programs (constantly have to exclude apps), as well as problems handling drop shadows with rounded corner windows.... I'd love to use it, but it's simply more trouble than worth at present...

I suppose you'd have to disable shadows in WFX when you use a WB skin with shadows. I only hope that we will be able to define nonclickable areas in WB5 so you don't have to move the cursor to the edge of the shadow to resize a window.

While talking about WFX and WB skins that allready got shadows in them, it'd be nice with a property to set in your skin that would disable the WFX shadow automaticly.

WindowBlinds 5 takes that into consideration by making the entire left, right, and bottom window frame images grippable. That way you don't have to hunt for the very edge to resize a window.

True, so I notice. But I still wish for such an option to be implemented.

And I thought I was the only one that would hyper-ventilate when a new beta release was available!

Well, there's been a while since such a big update so I've had abstinences.
(I'm surprised that dictionary.com didn't say "Did you mean..." when I typed "abstinences". I was sure I wouldn't be able to type that correctly on the first try. )

I think alot of us around here were hyper-ventilating during that 'endless, eternal, neverending' wait for WindowBlinds to go up on SDC. Ok, hyper-ventilating is one thing, but come clean, who else went into convulsions when that 'update window' finally appeared? I was trembling that much with excitement, trying to connect with the download button equated to hitting a jack-in-the-box on steroids with a peashooter from 500 paces.
