be able to have a background on the All programs list that isn't just a solid colour (this may already be there but i haven't looked hard at skin studio yet)

I would like to beable to see Office and MSIE 8 as skinable much like firefox has it themes.

I would like to be able to skin dark backgrounds on everything. No more hard-coded white... or any other colours. The Win7 Explorer sidebar, Calculator, MSpaint and Wordpad are huge offenders.

Just make it possible to make truly dark themes.

I am sorry to say that will never happen.

If an app has hardcoded a background colour into itself then chances are it has also hardcoded other things assuming that background colour.

I would like to be able to skin the file transformation animation in Vista.  I don't have Win 7 yet, but have it ordered for when it comes out on Oct 22, at which time I'm sure I will have more "wants".

I would like to see the ability to move the Vista/7 details pane to the top so I don't have to hack my files for that ability.

That has been implemented for a while.

I understand 3rd party apps we have little control over I am more interested in getting explorer fully skinned... so...how about for a start.. at least the left nav\folders and right Preview pane at least. Having a bright white area of an explorer window basically ruins every dark theme unless they are hidden, in which case navigation is hindered. Translucency in those panes would be a godsend too.

Neil I am going to add a Win 7 version to my current WIP, I haven't even finished XP yet, let alone Vista... so.. I will be adding a lot to this thread I imagine but nothing for a week or two.

Thanks for taking the initiative to listen mate

The current beta build of WB7 is Fantastic! I see loads of improved features and I love the new interface. So Thanks for the updates!

As far as feedback, I have been a long time Object Desktop Ultimate subscriber and I will always be. With WB7 feedback, two of my programs have the same bug that has not been fixed with whatever WB version I use. Internet Download Manager and Teamviewer never get properly skinned. The popup window border (IDM) changes to clear after i apply any skin. I know these are 3rd party apps and the devs might not have much control over these, but the standard interface with the Aero skin applied looks as if all the windows are skinnable and look normal. Meaning, no extra buttons or things like this. The windows that are not being skinned are the download progress popup Interent Download Manager window (seems to be an error with the minimize button that screws up the whole skin on that window) and the main Teamviewer window. Both programs have the same skinning error as the outer window  borders come up transparent and do not skin. Both programs I use and have been using for a long time and would love to see them somehow get skinned.If anyone can look into this and test these programs I would appreciate it.

Dunno, one of my scripts is breaking the pics I posted, here is the direct link.

My wishlist..... I would like to be able to change the color of the font within Windowblinds instead of doing it in SkinStudio.

It would be nice to see Internet Explorer gets skinned. At this time only the title-bar gets skinned, the bars bellow the title-bar are still the default vista.

Ditto on that......the one and only reason I still have IE7 istalled. IE8 doesn't get skinned

Another vote for IE8 skinning.

Would very much like to see full proper glass skinning (skinning the aero glass stream) instead of only the borders. msstyle hackers do this with their skins, one would hope that Stardock could use their expertise to go one better...

I would like to be able to change the colour of the text ("Folders") on the folders bar in the Vista Explorer.

How about this?

When you tell WB to apply a different skin to an app, that app also gets the skin's colors. Or, if you make an exception for an app, that app gets the default colors instead of the skin colors.

-Change size, color of folder bar font

-Explorer tree view (left pane) background able to have color changed.

-Would be nice if there was a way around the command bar text on explorer to not use "Window background" color.

-IE8 Doesnt seem to skin with current WB. At least not entirely.

-I actually would like some "redundancy" in SKS its self. Specifically Id like it if im in the start menu section of SKS for example, then EVERYTHING that can apply to that area is listed in there, regardless of whether or not it is in another section of the editor already. I find myself having to jump around alot in the editor for some areas.

-Doubt you can do this since its probably all Mozilla but better Firefox skinning support.
