I see that there is a price up for MC11, but the thread still has that big warning about unsupported....so just how close is it to beta(if that is the correct term - I'm new to this stuff, ya know) ...MC10 works just fine, but all the new stuff really intrigues me....and I tend to pay attention the warning lables (especially those in bold!!) thanks Bet

I have been using 11 since the first release... I can that I have not had ANY issues with the last few builds...
If you don't have 11 installed... GO FOR IT.... It can run side by side 10.

but the thread still has that big warning about unsupported

Good to hear...and I ain't scared...nope, no whimp here ;D

Well the longer they keep it in Alpha, then probably the more new and interesting things will get added... I say keep it alpha for a year or so,.... :o

ok..I did it...I am now using MC 11...just a question or two...am I stuck using Thunderstorm if I want to use the Library Browser (Nice, touch, that)? Black and eggplant just aren't my colors....I need my opus bright blue!!! And where can I get a Zen plug in that works?? There's nothing on the portable thread...and I already tried unistalling the version 10 plugin, and then updating the MC 11 version...and no plug in showed up anywhere and the version 10 doesn't work.....I guess I could just use MC 10 for the Zen, for now, but from reading the portables thread I thought it should work :-\

Here is how you modify the skin
Goto the Thunderstorm Skin directory.
Copy the following files into the Opus (or any other skin's dir)
CustomTab_BorderRow.png
CustomTab_Button.png
Then goto the Main.xml and open in notebook
Copy and paste the Custom Part into the Opus Main.xml
ie:
<CUSTOMTAB>
<Data InternalMarginLeft="18" InternalMarginRight="18" OverlapLeft="12" OverlapRight="12"
ImageToTextSpacing="6" FirstItemTextOffset="8" MakeFinalItemSameWidth="1" />
<Entry Name="Button" Bitmap="CustomTab_Button.png" NumberImages="4" Columns="14,?-Flex,14" />
<Entry Name="BorderRow" Bitmap="CustomTab_BorderRow.png" NumberImages="2" />
</CUSTOMTAB>
If you have any problems PM me your email address and I will send you the updated Main.xml
