gm, thewayofzen, you are right.. wpaper must suit style, and stye must suit wpaper. wpaper makes style more expressive, for example some styles wouldn`t look so beautifully if they hawn`t wpaper they have on a screenshot. and one more thing - somebody is a wpaper fan and likes to get some uncommon walls in his /hdd ^__^

I agree with you there, ive seen some styles that i thought were awesome just fly under the radar due to the lack of a flashy wall to go with it.

Another questions.. how many style authors feel as though sometimes.. positive comments they get are more because of the wallpaper then the style itself. I just seem to notice.. after 119 styles that some of the styles im most proud of are bsetroots that barely anyone notices.. and i wonder perhaps if this is because the lack of a snazzy wall to draw a mouse click out of someone might be to blame... anyone else agree? when u look at a style .. i can understand it being a combination of style AND wall.. but surely im not the only one who sometimes thinks some really good styles get overlooked

im with pretty much everyone. honestly it would be cool to have a mention in the credit. but if one of my styles is a little responsible for one more person deciding to take an active roll in the community and start making their own.. its a worthy sacrifice.. acknowlegement or not.

thewayofzen: Personally, I would consider it an honor if someone wanted to mod a style of mine.

I really need to go back and redo some of the styles from when I first started.

Wow holy crap, all this still exists. I haven't been on this site in forever. I'm glad to see blackbox, and all the other *box window managers and styles and stuff are still out there. So cool. Hi everyone!

Yknow, i found it really amusing to see the 32 bit version working on 98SE. i also find it just as hilarious that this still runs even on windows 11 machines.
