Which leads us to the "aesthetic of ugliness" (-: which is also a "legitimate" aesthetic category. I suppose here is word about attractiveness more than about "beauty". If is attractive enough, it doesn't have to (mis)use any beauty. But, attractiveness is an even more uncatchable thing... > Anyway, it allows you to use a customised glyphs.bmp to your liking. > I'm using the same I was using with v2. Hm, glyphs are just icon part of an interface, and although the use of TB is this way significantly painless, for one's eye, it still needs more to achieve a "usual beauty" level. They could steal GUI stile of the old Netscape Messenger (looks like classy "mercedes"), or simply analyze GUI of KeyNote, which is open source software, and looks quite fine (doesn't "hurt" any aesthetic sense...or organ, if any; really, is there some "center" in the brain, or elsewhere, in charge with aesthetics?). - -- Mica PGP key uploaded at: <http://pgp.mit.edu/> once just before breakfast -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFBNeCO9q62QPd3XuIRAhweAJ930MMoDK3GJxhb4q1dEehjCiQAIgCeOzxJ Bu0610qh1nxMdIvFPf5p8qE= =ozvW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
