Hints about what? The programs needed to use them; or which skins would we recommend for download?You need to be more specific.

About half way through Monkey Island, move the pointer around the right hand side of the screen. Something will happen.

Don't walk off cliffs. Humans can't fly.

Guess what number I'm thinking of. Okay, I'll give you a hint. It's 6.

Brilliant Grayhaze,

I tried that walking off cliffs thing and you are right humans cant fly. Will have to wait till I get Monkey island before I try that one.

On behalf of WinCustomize I apologize for all these nitwits giving you a hard time. For their ill manners we will begin public caneing tomorrow.

Now on the serious side. Yes, if you can be more speific as to what type of tips you are looking for I think we might be able to squeeze of few real tips out of these people.

jafo - hitchhiker's guide?
griffinme - wkrp in cincinnati?

spiketagger - if you modify one of the default skins, be sure to use 'save as' and pick a new name.. or choose -not- to update defaults when installing updates to the program [this is a recently added option for stardock installs.]

From the Big Guy himself. Still one of my all time favorite single episodes of any show.

To avoid that funky outline when you click the expand systray button don't use transparancy with the button in the skin.

Another graphics related hint: After painting in Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop remember to wash the cursor carefully (I use soap and water) or you'll get colorstains all over your desktop.

Griffinme: If you want to be really crafty about it you can make the edges non-transparent, but all the rest can be transparent.
