  It's official....I am now a WindowBlinds Tutorial atheist.  Having waited, expectantly, the imminent return of Frogboy's Official WindowBlinds Tutorial to rescue me from my sightless struggle to execute everything promised AFTER the introduction some almost 11 months ago, I have lost my faith, and accepted the fact that creating a slick WindowBlind skin is some alchemy that is possessed only by MasterSkinners and people who know somebody who know somebody or something...but I'm not numbered among the chosen. THAT will teach me to get excited about "good things to come."
