Great update komalo :)

By the way, is it possible to change the title border font? For some reason it's rendered really awefully over here. Any tip(s) would be much appreciated. Windows XP SP3, also running strokeIt mouse gesture app which, on a side note, seems to misbehave(?) alongside your app and cause windows to be a little jumpy when moved with the mouse (any ideas on this?) Back to specs.. Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS, single LCD monitor 1680 x 1050, Microsoft's Powertoy Cleartype Tuner installed, , Core2Duo, 4gb RAM, SuperAntiSpyware, XWindowsDock v(most recent release)..

I hope your exams went well; thanks for the release.

For the title border font Try this :
right click on "My Computer" choose properties switch to "Advanced" tab and click on "Settings" button in "Performance" from the list check

or
screen properties>appearance>effects check the second box and use Standard

the "Smooth edge of screen fonts" checkbox and click OK

i will look now in the strokeIt problem

AVG Free says "Hook DLL.dll" is a Trojan Backdoor Generic11.AJFF

So, I just used Hook DLL.dll from version 0.2 and works until now.

I was just about to report this. I got it on avast. Hook DLL.dll is a virus. No way in hell I'm installing this until that is gone.

EDIT: I could use it if I get the old Hook DLL.dll, can someone upload that please?

There is the older versions link in the first post, you can find in those files a previous Hook DLL.dll file. However, we don't know if they are 100% compatible, the only one who knows that is Komalo.

I tried the previous version, same virus there, and versions before it will probably not work so I won't even bother =/

Border Skin is a free portable software designed to bring effects to windows, is was designed first to skins the windows borders by skins composed of png images, but now it is on its way to a fully new surprise.

[b]Author[/b]
Mohamed Kamal

[b]Requirements[/b]
.Net Framework 3.5

[b]News[/b]
currently border skin is designed to be an effects program which means you can run aero snap separately without running border skinning, the settings gui is not fully updated to reflect the new program structure, but it will be updated soon after finishing the problems first, you cannot say it is stable for now but i am sure that you will have fun when trying it, and sorry for not making a screen shot this time, but i was kinda on hurry.

[b]Version[/b]
0.2.5

[b]Change Log[/b]
Fixed : Tray Icon appearance settings wasn't saved and applied
Fixed : Error on closing a window
Fixed : window icon is not rendered correctly with some windows
Fixed : navigation buttons are updated lately showing wrong state (disabled or enabled)
Fixed : some windows still have windows xp borders even with

Added : fade animation on buttons hover
Added : Aero Snap feature with basic look
Added : right click on window icon show windows menu
Added : Double click on window icon closes window
Added : Automatic windows Borders restore when terminating program process (like from task manager) so you can hide tray icon safely 

there are many other but i just can't remember (i don't record my change log on fixing something, i better start from now on :) )

[b]Still Solving[/b]
Maximize Problem
title is transparent on mac skin
explorer skinning option is currently not working

[b]Future Plans[/b]
new settings window
Aero Snap with glass look
Aero shake

[b]Older Versions[/b]
Here : [url="http://komalo.deviantart.com/gallery/#Border-Skin-Older-Versions"]Link[/url]

please post your reviews and bug reports, i always check the comments but i only reply on Fridays because of school

Hi Komalo, is there any way you could identify which skins (in the collection mentioned) are compatible with the current release version?

well most of them specify which version it works with, but the problem that most of them works with 0.2.3 only.

Are there any skins that you know of that are 0.2.7 compatible at this time?

I like the improvement in the OSX skin that comes with the app. I also like that it doesn't have shadows built in, because I can use YzShadow with it and it looks quite nice ;)

Oh, and one thing, explorer's close button does not seem to work, I get around it by right clicking the titlebar and selecting "close" so not a show stopper. The animation effects are beautiful as well. The close buttons for other windows work just fine. Also, you've managed to get the breadcrumbs to follow QTTabbar's tab navigation, very very slick!
