Thunderbird 31 does not seem to skin properly

Hi all,

 

I'm running the latest version of WindowBlinds (8.05) and since I've upgraded to Thunderbird 31 the title bar does not skin properly. The screenshot taken shows the skin Oren, but changing to another skin does not solve the problem. I'm not sure, but wasn't there a similar issue when the new Firefox design was deployed? Maybe it's something related?

I'm just surprised that I seem to be the only one with this issue, at least I couldn't finde any...

I don't know If there is similar topic/s at forum.

My question is do you know any program or file for more tails-sounds-special effects to CursorFX Plus. If there is some apps, it is perfect.

Meetup, Mozilla, Reddit, Etsy and Kickstarter and other big website owning net neutrality backers will be displaying the dreaded large spinning wheel (‘Please wait – site loading’) this Wednesday, five days before the FCC second round deadline for public comments.

This will be to show folks how their net will look if the FCC doesn’t pass strong net neutrality regulations.

The point being without those regulations, the web will develop ‘fast’ (higher fee) lanes and ‘slow’ pe...

I’ve had some questions come in from Facebook and the WinCustomize forums about some of the additional features of WindowBlinds regarding textures and backgrounds, so I wanted to write a post going into more detail about it.  These are all features that aren’t really difficult to use, but if you are a new user you just might not be familiar with where everything is and how they work.

If you are completely new to WindowBlinds 8, let me recommend you also take a read through th...

IXION Windowless Jet Concept–the future of flying?

A cool concept…by making it windowless, there will be a great savings of materials producing a lighter and stronger airframe.

So, no one wants to be shut in that way, without a way to look out and see the world, right? Well this baby will have cameras outside with 3600 pano view and the cabin walls will be screens…with possibilities for video conferencing, etc. Spike Aerospace has won design prizes with this revolutionary plane design.

Pretty cool!

Secrets of business: Partnerships

When I was 20 I had nothing. I was working multiple jobs to pay for college and started Stardock as a way to pay for school.  20 years later, it’s now worth 9 figures.  How did this happen?

The number 1 rule for success I’ve found is to build partnerships. This can mean your employees and it can mean external companies, contractors, etc. that you team up with. 

What does “building” partnerships mean? To me, it means, working towards their success.  This...

I dont know if this is even possible, because of difference between my language and english, but i still want to ask.

I had argument today with a random guy about whether in a sentence:

"We invite you to the first founding meeting blah blah blah..." there is a comma "," symbol between words first and founding. Actually it looked like this: "we invite you to 1., founding meeting..." 

Now he claimed the comma has to be there, i thought otherwise.

As i said, since in english it can...

Internet speed, ACT scores, correlations and intelligence.

To tell the truth, I shuddered when I read this article. Why? Because correlation doesn’t determine dependency nor causality. Correlation can  suggest a possible causal relationship, but great care must be exercised in the sampling, and in clear definitions.

For some reason, ACT became synonymous with intelligence to the people who published these findings. ACT scores indicate memory, and the ability to take tests…but not  purely intelligence. While it’s true that inte...

I have checked Stardock Central and I have the latest versions of the Stardock products I use. My OS is Windows 8.1. You can see my problem below:
