Awesome! So, I would assume that since we can now skin the start menu, there must be a way to use said menu, rather than the one supplied with WindowBlinds?

Is there a way  for someone (like me for instance) to create start menus without any version 8 programs?

You just pick the theme from the drop down in the Start8 UI.  If Start8 is set to use the standard Start8 themes then with WB running it will use the WB skin, but if you pick a skin that's not the default theme (i.e. has a theme file) then it will use that over the WB one.

Thanks, Neil.

Not working.   

You did reboot after installing?

As if you didn't then it will not work until it has been rebooted.

Good you reply here Neil 

-Can you choose NOT to have the "Shut down text" on the Shutdown-button in this finally

There are content margins on the shutdown button, so that might work, but it is not something I have tried myself.

The editor live edits the file and tells Start8 to reload the theme, so without Start8 installed there would be no way to see the results.

The content margins adjustment for the start menu shutdown button text does not work Neil. It works in Windows 7, but not in Windows 8.

This is about Start8 themes.

@ Neil: So will this MAJOR issue for skinners with the Shutdown Text displaying ever be fixed ???

ALL The skinners want/need the option to take it away

You know, it's really hard to help out around here sometimes.
