Default WindowsBlinds skins for dark Reaper themes

hi,

has anybody found a usable one, I've searched almost one hour and found only http://www.wincustomize.com/explore/windowblinds/7144/ one, it looks ok for me (dark and orange like Neutron) but who know maybe there is a better one>




thx for the help

ps. Neutron otherwise brilliant and uses less CPU than Alloy2 (so can be replaced)

Hi xbitz_,
I use Commalas windows theme he posted here when I work with Reaper for more than a few minutes.
Also AugerJ posted a very interesting link here that leads to devianart where you can find lots of Windows themes.

What I do not understand, and I feel like an idiot at this point, is why I have to install windowsblinds for that?
What is the advantage?
Seriously, can you explain that to me like I'm 3 years old, please? I don't get it and I'm afraid to do s.th. wrong.

It is totally simple to load a theme like Commalas. And if you don't like it as your everyday theme, switch back.
I discovered this recently and was so excited that I opened a thread for it in the "Q&A, Tips, Tricks and Howto Forum" to explain how to do that here if you want to read it with no answers so far.

Hm, anyway, hope the first links at the top help though.

don't have to use it ofc. just because of Reaper, I use WB for quite long time (and this theme looks far better than the mentioned dark windows classic one) tried to find a good looking dark WB theme first

windowblinds themes ? have to buy the skinner program itself http://www.stardock.com/products/win...s/download.asp for 10$, then can download the skin files ( http://www.wincustomize.com/explore/windowblinds ), they install themselves automatically
