Native skin
« on: May 10, 2004, 03:37:16 pm »

One thing which I miss from Media Jukebox (8) days is that neat Windows-native-look-and-feel skin it had. Maybe it's just me, but I always preferred the programs to look as I expect them to, that is, how the OS itself looks. So far I've been using PixOS (I absolutely _hate_ dark skins!), but plain gray buttons and scrollbars would be even better =)

Is there a slightest chance to see this in upcoming releases?

I'd actually like to see this as well.  I would prefer to be able to control MC's appearance by using Windowsblinds.  I prefer being able to control the appearance of all my software through just one interface over needing a seperate skin for each application.

Yep, this looks nice, thank you. I'll definitely be using this skin for now =)

However, this is not exactly what I wanted. One thing I don't like about it, for example, is that it always seems to be in focus. Also, when it's maximized, it doesn't look like a properly maximized window.

I think there are "full screen" versions of those skins that do look proper when maximized.
