Exclusion List upgraded in 0.3, you can now exclude programs by process name  
and class name, and specify a skin for a certain window

Can't test it, but it's looking great

thanks , you are using ubuntu,right ? it is a great OS    
 
i just took the permission from fediaFedia to use his skin Windows Aero Beta for WB by fediaFedia
Here's a New Screen Shot

Yeah, I'm using Ubuntu (Jaunty).
 
I booted into XP, and tested your app (v 0.2). It's using about 40% of my dual-core Intel E8500 when dragging windows. Also, there is a slight lag when resizing/moving windows, but other than those two issues, it's just about perfect
 
By the way, good luck with your exams

Looks good! Nice work.

yes, i am trying to decrease the cpu & memory usage and increase it's moving speed
thanks  

Thank You

Great job! The best skin program!

Thanks

How can you type and post all that in four seconds?

One forum at a time.

Maybe he had seperate tabs/windows, wrote the message on the first tab (but didn't post), proceeded to the second tab and wrote that message, pressed send, closed the tab, and pressed send again.
 
Can't think of any other explanation.. If he really did it that fast, he is insanely fast

And for a name, I suggest Quaero (quick aero) or Fraero (free aero) or Quiro (quick aero) or Aevo. [I think quiro and aevo are the best]

Quaero exists already (quaero.com), but fraero and quiro doen't seem to be anything special.

Quiro? Would pronounce that... queer-o?

---------------

Yes.

that's correct, actually that's EXACTLY what i did  
nice suggestions but i don't know why all the people involves aero or glass in
the name , i mean that's not the only feature  

I'm Chris Angel and I read your mind

I'm Chuck Norris.
 
Anyway, yea stear away from the whole Aero and glass, since presumably we won't just be using this for Aero?

---------------

does it satisfies you if i told you i will try to add another features to it, and this
will not the only application i will make, so i will have plenty of time for another applications
 
-----------
Since i don't want to spend a week trying to find a name for the application rather than release it, here's what has been suggested :
Metallica Skin (MS) , Fraero (free aero) , Quiro (quick aero) , Aevo , GlassXP , Metallica Skin (MS)  , Glass XP
Aero XP  , XP-skin , Apptastic , PeanutSkin , TPWD (The Perfect Window Manger) , TUWD (The Ultimate Window Manger) , Diamond-XP , Glowy , GLOW (Glass Light On Windows) , WinBlur , WinDecorations , WinDecor , WinDecorSkin , SkinDecorations , SkinDecor , SkinFrame , WindowSkin , WinGBK (Windows Glass Blur) , WinBlurSkin , BlurSkin , WinBlurXP , BlurXP , Kskinner(Komalo skinner) , SkinWinnerK (komalo winner skin)
i came up with WinComposite and WinCrystal
 
And to tell you the truth, i am a little on "WinCrystal" side , so i am thinking about it as the name, if any one saw one of the other names will be more suitable
please suggest it now

Why can't you just post everything in one reply?
