Deleting skins in WB5...and where's my system tray icon?

I might've missed it in the FAQ's

from WinCustomize Forums
Okay, guys.

So I'm "testing" WB5 on a laptop (activated and all...this system is one that I can wipe and rebuild quickly should it get infected, so I'm willing to let it play online a bit more), and I've got a question about WB5:

What happened to the system tray icon? The settings say it should be there (in the settings, the box has a check in it, but its grayed out). Is this something with the beta, or what?

WB5 looks nice and all. I can't say I'm too fond of transparencies, but they work pretty well. Nice to see some classic skins being updated for WB5. There's still bugs, it seems...help is always appreciated.

Thanks!

What happened to the system tray icon?

The icon in the systemtray was from the WBload.exe running on WB4.X and earlier versions.
It's no longer used so therefore no icon.

Sorry...I've been out of town on a family emergency. Couldn't get online.

Hmm. That sucks. I liked having the icon there to change skins. Made it nice and easy.

Thanks for letting me know!

I don't see why they couldn't develop a separate app for giving control from the systray. Lots of programs that run as services do so.

Don't worry. The systray icon will be back!
In what form or function I do not know - we'll just have to wait
