[quote]32 bit mode is fine, as long as they run i don't care. but i remember wb6 wouldn't run at all in vista x64 at the start. so thats what i'm trying to avoid. [/quote] its worked fine for me since the pre release beta they had.

[quote]i understand those 2 are now working, what about the rest of the OD suite? [/quote] Sound Packager works, SKS6 beta works, DeskScapes and TweakVista. There are a few others that work. Not all are native 64bit (some in 32bit mode, like SKS6 for example).

I think it would have done better if you guys had more exclusive suites/themes available. These are nice but most of them have been around awhile...

Yeah the beta version on SDC works on x64 without problems, only drawback is its in x86 mode because there is no native 64 bit addition. :) (Meaning it uses 50% more memory than it would if it had native x64 support)

Everything they sold was overpriced anyway, im not surprised this happened. Even with shipping costs things on NewEgg and alike where cheaper.

Perhaps for XP users it is, I just don't get why people use "20% of people who come here use Vista" as an excuse. People have posted the numbers of visitors an

Look a that, the tabs in IE are flat out ugly, the nav bar is bright green and you cant even read the text on the folder location, what is acceptable to you clearly is not to me. Oh and I don't mean that part of the sound, click on the icon, not only does it have a nice big black like to the right of the trackbar but their is no frame around it like Aero has. I have tried it, downloaded it when the new version was up, it was applied a whole 3 seconds. And I agree with you,

[quote]Is it that parts of the WB won't work or more technical then that? Again it looks pretty darn good in reply #264. [/quote] You arent seeing the explorer (unskinned, ugly) and IE (default tabs, yeah they fit well). Yeah it looks nice with a taskbar, start menu and window frame, but you don't see anything else there do you?

Reply to Evolution of a Masterskin...Slider XP in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

[quote]Hmmm, interesting that you can find alot of new skins being made, that although not specificly made for Vista, will run on it. Take alook at reply #264, seems to work. What might be the limitation. [/quote] If I wanted to use XP based skins I'd use XP, not Vista. There are certain elements that look ugly as it is with WB6 (thumbnail previews, volume mouseover, system clock), I don't really need to add onto it.

[quote]good job 80% + of WC traffic is still on XP [/quote] And? That 20% isnt exactly a "small" amount of people you know, and that number will only get larger over time. To be honest I never really expected this theme to be fully Vista compatible so its really not too shocking that its not happening, just disappointing.
