Dear Joseph, you are a creative user contributing numerous important things. Kill your actual tools cookies and register free in the forum (ask Michael Tretyakov how or read forum usage tricks), then make your profile with a pic, icon and e-mail address and url etc. and get the possibility of editing your blogs, plus get statistics and ratings. This way, I can vote for you and give you points. AND likewise, you can help other users by rating them with a vote for them you can submit.

If you want to make the blog look nicer than this, try getting a free or cheap good html or blog editor, which I have also by now. The admins here probably will let u use html code, which I did not, so it is not perfect yet, just better than my guest articles optically. Sometimes, just wait for a day after the next weekend so the admin can update things and the system time catches up with your countries system time. Do not tick remember me on this computer before having killed your old cookies. For $5, use a russian dictionary if you want to read the name of your country or understand some smiley contexts or somebodys rank etc. It is fun, also for other users! Even without the html editor you can easily update or change your article just by registering and logging in before posting, which seems free of spy and spam effects.

A russian computer dictionary is better than an old general dictionary that does not know modern russian computer language. It is not hard, and most things are English here, anyway. Or what is easier, use a free translator without typing russian by just markin, pasting and copying cyrillic into translator mask. I do not think people can give you negative ratings of many points, they can only retract their 1 vote, as it looks to me.

Also, it can make people visit your home page. Currently, my pages are so new they are still under heavy construction. But I am curious and could get inspirations on homepages of people like you, having more fun and enjoying this new forum getting more personal and colorful. It is so new, even the admin has not had time to put his personal foto in his profile, which I would enjoy seeing one day. But he is also working heavily on the next program version and marketing, writing articles and many other things.

Anything you do as a guest only is a bit less of what you are worth, and you can not update your blogs if you made them when being a guest. But first kill your cookies so that will work right. If you need support, I have put a free tutorial to click on in this forums general section under forum usage tricks.

The following suggestions do NOT work on DOS windows, but you can remove close buttons of any XP window by installing free or registered versions of stardocks windowblinds, download free skins without closing buttons, then, if WB is resident because called up or autostarted, your window shows a skin without title buttons. Window blinds allows for you to determine which programs windows have which skin, only the default windows skin does not remove x buttons. AND your actual title buttons also appear in the new skin whenever you turn actualwinman on. You might want to adjust the position of them to the new skin by button shifting in the actwinman rules for the reskinned windows. Using free or registered skin studio versions by Stardock, you can also completely CREATE your own skin with or without x buttons and put them anywhere you want, even outside of the title bar or underneath the frame of a window, or for guarding put the x button the left vertical middle outside the window frame so you do not hit it by mistake. Then apply your own skin with window blinds. And you can add customized buttons with your own menu appearing when you click that button, skins for this already are downloadable free.

BUT NOT for DOS windows. :cry:  

If I stumble on a trick one day, I will let you know

 Hello there.

I'm a Actual Transparent Windows user, and rellay it's great. It's what I was looking for for many years :)

There's only one thing remaining for to be perfect for me : a default windows rule that applies transparency only if the window is not maximized :)

 Dear user.

Thank you for your suggestion. We'll necessarily consider it and, possibly, implement it in our future releases of Actual Tools.
