only thing(s) that wb doesn't skin on my computer, and i never added them as exclusions either, are (AOL) AIM Triton beta & AOL Explorer. they seem to have it so that they use their OWN style, and can't be changed. but, AOL itself does take on whatever theme i use.

When will you fix the bad thing with buttons that don´t resize when text is to long to fit.


That is a result of the skinner selecting too large of a font for the buttons. Most buttons don't resize based on the text. The text should be resized for the buttons.

I have asked the same thing to Steve Grenier who have made the Mac OS X Tiger skin. He says that in Windows XP for instance, the buttons rezises to fit long text, and that this function is not implemented in WB. And if I choose a font that fits with all buttons and all kind of messages (that Windows XP without any problem fix), then the text is so small and condensed that it is hard to read anything for that reason.
So I think that there is a problem with this. Download the mentioned skin yourself and see what I mean.
Could´nt be to hard to fix,if they want it, I hope!
Best regards,
