**** question - least resource consuming appearance style?

this is pretty boonish, but the last time I was aqua skinning was around may 05, so it's been a while for me.

anyway, I had a pretty thourough skin going back then, but one thing I did notice was it definely slowed down my comp (1gig cpu 128meg ram).

Now I have an a lot faster computer, lock stock and loaded with RAM, but I still want to have as much performance as I can out of it, even if I do skin.

In the past I've used StyleXP and WindowBlinds, and maybe something else that escaped my memory, but the question on my mind right now is, what swallows the least ressources, and yet still gets the job done thouroughly?

I guess optimally I'd want something that isn't always in my systray, and just does what it does without having to be on all the time

EDIT: wow, boon is a cussword? I'm sorry then, make that beginner.

Style XP uses the least amount, but it can only go so far. If you have a super fast computer, windowblinds shouldn't have a big effect on your comp anyways.

Windowblinds 5, because it is integrated into windows theme engine, does the job well.
