Awesome skin! It takes custom colorization perfectly, and just a great everyday skin! Thanks for making this! Question...when I mouse over a menu item, the highlight is a lime green color, not orange like the screenshot...is this because I colorized the skin? How do I adjust the color?

yeah - you can adjust the colour using advanced HSL colouring in wbconfig such that it only effects the green hues and totally ignores the orange mouseover type elements

HSL colouring

the important bit here is on the right of the attached image, where you set the colour to change and the colour range - you can use the colour picker to grab the basic green of the original frame, then reduce the colour range to exclude the orange

Ah, thanks so much for the tip and image...didn't think to use the advanced HSL section.

I wasn't able to get the orange highlight, but instead got a light blue, which is better.

Love the skin........but I've got an issue in XP Pro SP3. It's the only skin that does it and I've uninstalled/reinstalled it several times........my taskbar is invisible and shows black in the Windowblinds Config preview.......

Update.......I found some wb4 files in the skin directory with the date/time stamp from when I installed the skin.........once I nuked them everything was fine.

I think wb4 files are miniscule bits of Neil Banfield's DNA.

You know I switched around a couple times since getting this one. However I have switched back, I really think it's the best skin I've used.

Try "Prowler" and "Zing!" Michael.... Honestly, I enjoy them the way I once enjoyed Capsula and Capsula 2.
