    cool, thanks for the tip. but i'll probably stick with the default buttons for now. :)

    i have been curious about the WSB program before, but i wasn't sure what its limitations were. it might be something i would consider buying in the future--but i would want to be aware of its limitations before deciding.

    so i'm curious, were you able to do all the changes on this skin with WSB [aside from graphics editing]? or did you have to do some manual "hacking" for some of these edits? was making the title text stay white when maximized doable from WSB, too?

    I did all the modifications with WSB there is a little bit of a learning curve and WSB has its own forum with location maps and so very knowledgeable people VistaStyleBuilder - Index but to see the maps and much purchase WSB in the purchase information will allow you to sign up. Some of the limitations are there is some black text in some drop down menus in Windows Explorer see screenshots that cannot be changed there is also some black text in some property windows see screenshots. There are some areas in the control panel and the clock that are in system files see screenshots they cannot be changed with WSB. I also included some screen shots of WSB that show you where I changed that text at in a couple of those screen shots it shows images that can be edited and then some areas like the left side of Windows Explorer is a fill color the right side is a fill color to.
    So there is a lot you can do with it some is image editing some is fill color you can change text colors text fonts in places and even add text colors in some areas and other properties that I have not even begun to check out.
    If you load up that dark theme that I posted the link to you can see what can and cannot be changed by comparing it to Aero.
