      What are skins ? I mean, I know what they can mean, but how do they differ from what you want to do ? You can set their background color, or draw a bitmap on them.

        I tried with some skins.. look and feel is good. but the placement of controls differ for different OS. So i changed my mind to program the same. If there is any free skin development tools let me know. I can try one more time...

          Change the background to what? Like Christian stated, you can draw a bitmap. Or you can make the background a different color. What do you want to do? Mark
