nice, but why does the text on tabs - in the display properties windows for instance - truncated with "..." when not selected, and the text on the selected tab display over the tabs borders? that's never a good look. just looks sloppy. but everything else is top-notch, honestly.

well, i gave skin studio a shot last night and well, it just takes too much right-side-of-the-brain type of talent. needles to say, i have none of that.

hm, i don't think i could afford to pay anyone by the hour. a flat fee of $50 for a good skin is certainly possible though. oh well, i was hoping it would sort of catch on as a good idea. i wasn't neccessarily thinking it had to be branded as star wars really (to be honest, i'm not a fan of text on skins at all), just sort of cloud city-art deco looking. that way, it could have broad appeal to it. maybe i really should give it a shot myself then.

i thought i'd try OB. i'm guessing this is a relatively feature thin theme, because upon installation of OB, some of the other ones included full task bars and start menus, as well as panels on the side of the screen. the toon one seems to just be a right-click for the desktop. am i right? so, in the description of it in the OB theme manager, the author pretty much just kept the description from "Simple v1.0?, right? it read "A 'simple' theme combining program access, taskbars, and more in
