WebBlinds a thing of the past?

from WinCustomize Forums
I like using WebBlinds along with WindowBlinds but I see that there are hardly any WebBlinds skins in the library. Why is that? Do people just not use them a lot or are they incorporated into another program (WinStyles, for example)and I just need to "pull them out"? (I don't like to use the entire ObjectDesktop program.) Are skinners just not that interested in WebBlinds? Or is it the users? Is there a newer program that people like better and that's why I don't see many WebBlinds? Maybe I am a thing of the past!

I am always checking to see if there's new webblinds, especially for the MSIE buttons, so I can change them to match my skins. Some of the skins that don't have webblinds support don't look right with the default buttons.I am also always checking for throbbers. I hate the boring default ones, and like to customize as many features as I can. maybe the skinners will take note and post a couple new ones.

Seems like most of the *.wba files work with WebBlinds. My favorite is Alien Technology (DavidK) though I haven't figured out how to get the colors green or blue (comes up in silver)in WebBlinds like the WindowBlinds has.

Actually, it seems to me that WindowBlinds almost replaces WebBlinds on XP anyways. WB skins all the things webblinds does (except for toolbar buttons and throbbers), and does it better. I think Stardock should make webblinds into something like Y'z Toolbar. Atleast then it will have *some* sort of use. But anyways...one useless program out of 23 ain't bad!

I noticed that the webblinds uses the skin from wb too, but it's the throbbers and buttons that don't change.
