Well, this looks great! Only thing is, I downloaded it and it is a zip that needs to be changed into a wba. Then, the same taskbar shows in all 5 styles. But it won't even load for me. It blurs the screen like it's loading, but it don't load. A friend got it to load, but says all 5 styles have the same taskbar and start panel. I hope this isn't the intended result. ![]()

Oh thank you SO much for making my Windows 7 taskbar have depth instead of looking like a piece of Scotch tape! That sweet little gradient does so much! Oh and I love the glossy buttons, too.
BTW -- you're taking the Grinch right out of me with this skin.

haha thanks K10w3
RedneckDude, the skin is for WindowBlinds 7, as for the zip problem, I could not find a way to fix this, it only happends with Explorer, and if I do force the WBA extention it will install it instead of asking to save, I thought people would not like that. just rename the zip extention to wba and it should work ![]()

I did change it to .wba, it installed, it wouldn't load. I deleted it, redownloaded it, and extracted it. I moved the extracted folder to the windowblinds directory. Rebuild list. Loaded it and it loaded this time. It took me 3 tries to get it to switch to another windowblind. I am running WB7 on Windows 7.
Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining, nice skin, for free!! I just thought you might want to know.

Jim, I didn't have any problem installing it at all. I just clicked the download, the tooltip asked me if I wanted to apply it, I clicked yes, and WHAM! I had the Holiday skin glorifying my desktop! I was under the impresison that WB7 will accept either .zip or .wba format.

Very nice, thank you and Merry Christmas.
As for the wba / zip... the simple solution would be to zip the "Holidays.wba". That way when unzipped you would only have the one file.
