Skin selected apps only

Best Aero style for Vista - method to skin only selected apps

from Stardock Forums

Vista. I'd like to have everything running on Aero and have only particular applications skinned with WB.

Since I can't apply original Aero and make exception rules to use another skin on these applications (WB disables when I apply Aero), the only solution is to apply Aero-like theme and make exceptions. So here it goes: what is the most Aero-looking WB theme for Vista? [1]

Or, alternatively: how to apply original Aero and use WB to skin only selected applications? [2]

If not: is there any way to make WB theme from original Aero files? [3]

Or how to do that anyway? Please help.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so what I may think is a great Aero type skin, you may not like. You should visit www.wincustomize.com and search there, perhaps use 'aero' as a search term.

WindowBlinds has a way to exclude certain apps from skinning, but no way to have it skin only 'some' apps.

You can not edit or alter the Windows Aero theme, as that is locked by MicroSoft.
