(all good suggestions...but as pictoratus pointed out...other progs delete fonts that were previously in use no problem. the issue isnt even just about the skinner...the end user cant be expected to jump thru all these hoops for a simple skin update.) Well, in the first post two differant problems were raised. One is providing a finished product for the end-user - this is clearly windowblinds responsibility. The other was more of a on-the-fly type back and for

I'll give Stardock something constructive to work on. As it stands right now the name of the skin folder and the uis file contained within have to match exactly for the skin to work.

Hello IR Brainiac and vStyler - got the answer for all of you - get KnotVista, never will need to change a skin font again. Seriously, what is needed is for more of a meeting of the minds between those educated in skinning and those educated in computers. I started using unlocker the first time a font stuck on me, because I knew about unlocker. I liked "SystemForceJapan" icons so much, I made them my default icons, by using a program to place each icon into shell32.dll. Now I c
