well i tend to agree..
rest assured no skin support will be added until all other features are implemented.. it's just an idea i wanted to throw open for discussion to get an idea of how many people would like such a thing, and it would only be implemented if it could be done without impacting performance, and as a completely optional feature, etc.
the reason i have become more open to the idea is that while working on the Cheat Sheeter app, i used this excellent free, well known toolbar component toolbar2k, and its has a completely native win feel, but does support optional skins, so i realize skins can be added in a way that will not compromise the ability to run the program in plain normal windows mode for those of us that prefer that.
