Or better yet, how about putting it right in Skinstudio so everyone will know.Reply #7 Friday, February 20, 2009 6:48 AM
It is marked as vista only in SKS. It should be showing a little icon to the right of the text.
If an item has no icon then it is probably all OSes, if it is the XP logo then it is XP only and if it is the Vista orb then it is Vista only.
