The  Max / Min / Close buttons are invisible no matter what skin is applied, but this also happens on the default thunderbird skin, i am sure it is more a thunderbird issue rather than WB itself. This also happened on TB 33 and an update fixed it, broke again when TB went to version 34

You must be running a beta version of Thunderbird.  The current released version (31.3.0) skins just fine.

Das mit Firefox wurde gar nicht verbessert, eher verschlimmbessert. Wenn ich in WindowBlinds einen Style aktiviere und dann Firefox starte, stürzt mir der Firefox dauernd ab.

Just tried updating to the latest version of WB. Unfortunately, still having some problems with firefox. Semi-resolved when I revert to default theme but when I try to apply a persona/theme, only two buttons show (full screen and close program - and they're somewhat off). Minimize screen works but is invisible. I tried resetting to the default theme, uninstalling WB and then reinstalling but no luck. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Custom firefox themes could cause issues as they are custom.  But the standard theme should work.

Albert, it is my guess with the numerous problems with 8.09, they decided to pull it from the downloads.

WB 8.09 was taken down due to multiple issues.

 The "newest version" or latest update of any software or OS isn't necessarily the best one.  Updates often tend to break things....in all the newest ways.

BTW, If 8.09 has been pulled and you have 8.06, then you DO have the newest version.

Version 8.09 was indeed pulled back.  There were issues that were not seen initially that needed to be addressed.  Another beta version will be released soon.

Sorry for the confusion.
