WOW.....this is not tough love, Frogboy.  This the skinning equivalent of make up sex!  More skins, more ways to change those skins....I had my doubts about whether you could deliver, after feeling like the customizers had been taken for granted and ignored, told to wait...good things were just around the corner, and then months would pass, but you've certainly changed all that in the last week! 

THANK YOU!

I'm going to have to render out some much larger textures for use with this., seeing tiling would drive me nuts, but in theory as long as it works correctly, ie: wraps to the WB element without the texture affecting or applying over any strokes, dropshadow or glow, I'll be happy. :thumbsup:

 

btw Brad, not sure why but you images open up in a new FF tab for me, but not enlarged, yet when i close that tab and look at original, its there.. enlarged correctly. Not sure if you knew or why it would be doing that.

A maybe completely dumb question : Does this also mean we will be able to use aero for per apps instead of classic ? I have this one business-essential app (PPS software) at work that crashes when WB is used and I try to resize a window within the main window. Works great with default aero though...

This is what I have been waiting for! Can't wait for my new HP Pavilion dv8 to ship in with Windows 7! An idea: Maybe Stardock should create a separate free app for this (maybe called AeroObjects) that caters for this function only. Just an idea... :) :) Thanks for this - its awesome!! :)

OH I just tried this, I was soooo hopeful, but alas, it doesn't display the app properly at all if you select one of the stardock aero skins :(
