[quote]The one thing you can try is uninstalling MyColors and reinstalling to the latest version of the software. This could clear the issue.[/quote] Did talk to Travis at support, I had to uninstall windowblinds, and reinstall. Something to do with the new My Colors and windowblinds not playing well together.

[quote]Goo , I have a DX theme for the Magic suite. I doubt it will get uploaded tho. I can send it to you directly. Jim [/quote] I cannot do this as I wasn't thinking. It will still need to be approved first.

[quote]OR make your bar to auto expand height or width to 100% instead of in Pixel [/quote] Oh... So if I set it to 100% and create it at 1024, it would automatically expand if used on a 1280? Hmmm....
