ive not use photoshop for donkeys, GIMP does everything i ever need it for and more, is free, and uses hella lot less resources (not that resources are an issue for me any more but still) :D

Try this instead of stylexp, or windows blinds...

It actually patches the system files, so doesn't use up resources after the first reboot...

It looks great too, and i have been running for ages, with no problems

I think you can?

In the setup you can select and deslect random stuff?

What didn't you like?
