To all our friends and members, I am glad to announce Skinartistry is up and running again.  Thanks to all of you that have encouraged us to bring this community site back into service.

Come and see how we've progressed!  http://skinartistry2.com/news.php

Hats off to the coders! OB2 seem much more stable and a pleasure to use. Now would be a great time to separate the "RightClick" skins from the "ObjectBar" themes.
Hopefully more people will be submitting ObjectBar skins, and it would be easier to navigate with the two apps having their own categories.

Skinartistry has a name for their mascot. After you fine folks made your suggestions, we put it up for a vote, and the result is "Sam". Details of the voting can be seen on the site

A big thanks to Po'Smedley for creating and allowing us to use this for our mascot.

Drop on by and say hello to Sam, he loves the attention!

Skinartistry is in full swing now, and due to popular request has opened a second site strictly as a workshop. This is a place where someone can recieve some real help with their skinning skills.

Their project can be reviewed privately, or publicly by our select staff of administrative skinners and tutors. By having a "private" review, those who are just starting out in this hobby don't need to worry about harsh criticism, only positive feedback is provided. For those with a little more experience, can submit their work to a more open crowd for opinion.

More information is availible at Skinartistry here: http://skinartistry.com/news.php

Or at the Workshop here: http://design.skinartistry.com/news.php

Thanks to our loyal members, and popular request, Tom (aka Bones2112) is bringing Skinartistry back to the community. All the great things that made Skinartistry the place to visit for skins, news and interviews, or help and how-to will be there. All of the original content has been saved, and added to with more to come. Added security has be put into place to keep everything up and running.

So stop on by and say hello!

You need to uninstall version 4.95 before installing the latest update. In my case, I could not boot up after using StardockCentral updating WindowBlinds in the usual fashion. I had to go into safe mode to uninstall WB5. With a fresh install of WB5 (4.96), no problem.
Once installed correctly, it works like a charm! It just keeps getting better! Thanks Stardock.
