You're welcome. I went to your gallery and discovered that I have most of your skins, especially the ones that are made for Vista because I have Vista and I try to avoid XP skins for the *reason* to prevent crashes on my computer, not becasue I don't like XP skins - I have seen many XP skins that I'd love to have but just can't. My favorite skins from ur gallery are 1. Blue Knight, Panels and Pipes! You do an impressive work for a retired farmer... very cool, indeed.

Somebody finally got the Vista folder backgrounds right! Good work! Roughly 85% of the "Vista Ready" Blinds are NOT Vista-Ready...This one is...

Some text is non-readable - completely masked. Such as pop-up info.

Tailsgirl, Browny49 & Drzues - thanks for the comments. Fromeye2u - thanks for the comment, regarding the non-readable text, I know the drop down menu for the back & forward buttons in explorer & IE7 are difficult to read but are readable on mouseover, the reason I left it like this is because I was making a dark skin, I could have changed the menu background to a light colour, but to have done so would have affected a lot of the menus & the overal feel of the skin. I could not find a way to change the text color to white, I have looked at a lot of blinds produced by the top skinners & have not found any with light text on those particular drop downs. If there are other areas where the text is non-readable, could you please let me know, so that I can change it

The light font are quite common on many of the skins I've uploaded. I guess it seems prevalent. Hopefully someone can point you in the right direction. It will be great as it will make it a little easier. Maybe you can ask Stardocks for some advice on this font issue. Otherwise, continue the terrific work!

Hi Paul Laroque, I posted about changing the text colour in the forward & back drop down menu on Vista explorer in the forums & received a reply from vStyler to say that he did not think it is possible to change it, so I will change the background to a lighter colour.
