O.K. I've tried suggestions from another thread (can't find it just now)....i.e. running Windows Experience Score to "activate" the transparency in WB.
My problem is demonstrated in the two screen shots below with the red arrows demonstrating the unaltered way the skin should look, and the corresponding parts of the skin as it looks after application. The skins are unaltered, in their "base state".
In the first shot, note the Start Button. The skin is "Naked" by vStyler. The variable is not the Skinner, but rather the transparency: This happens with other skins. The skin appears as it should in WB7 (latest build) but not whaen applied.
In the second screen shot, an additional problem is shown: there is a black rectangle hiding behind the Start Menu running from the right border of the left side panel to the separator line at the bottom of that panel pointed to by the green arrows.
The third problem is shown at the left margin of the task bar: The wall paper does not extend to the bottom of the screen behind the task bar. When I hide the task bar though, the wall paper descends to the bottom of the screen and when I unhide the task bar, the wall is pushed back again, stopping at the top edge of the task bar (but behind the Impulse Dock).
I'd appreciate any help! My thanks to anyone who tries....
