WindowBlinds & Longhorn Beta 1

WindowBlinds & Longhorn Beta 1

Skinning Longhorn..

When the Longhorn beta arrives, we expect to release an update to WindowBlinds to support beta 1.  The only issues we know of is that the new Start menu has an edit field in it and the toolbar icons are handled a bit differently.  We're working on that.

..As for people who have been applying unauthorized MSStyles, they're out of luck. Those msstyles will not run on Longhorn beta 1 unless they use them via WindowBlinds.

In my opinion, they prey on people's ignorance.


That is afterall an accepted business practice.

The world would have been spared x-million Luna recolours, though....hardly a 'bad thing'...

Yup, only we'd have only the various Mac themes to play around with.

Let me throw in my 2 cents then on why a user (one with no stake in WB) might be excited:

Interesting that neither of the people who I asked why msstyles was a problem, had an answer for me. But the one the guy who has the most to gain by its absence (and who I didn't ask) was able to come up with an answer.

I'm just sayin'.

Which seems to be why this topic was created.
