Designed above all to be a usable skin, Blackcomb uses the UIS1 format for top performance and compatability. Fully supports user colourisation and XP features - click the squares to reveal rollup + ontop. Includes "Blackcomb Dark" subskin. WB 4.0 or later recommended for full shellstyle support. Comments and suggestions welcome. Original concept by Michael K Ter Louw, used with permission. Control panel and logoff/shutdown window images by Ian Black, used with permission.
If you are using "Blackcomb Dark" and find that IE text is not displaying correctly, try running the iefix.reg file in your Windowblinds/Blackcomb directory.
This version has an additional set of UIS2 subskins. You should not use these unless you run into compatability problems (as they are slower than the UIS1 subskins) or unless you *really* want skinned MDI buttons.
If you wish to modify this skin or port it to another format, please contact greenreaper@hotmail.com. Permission will usually be given, subject to the quality of the modification/port (it shouldn't look like you hacked it together in five minutes ;-), and as long as you don't intend to make money out of it.
This skin was adapted from the .msstyle by Michael K Ter Louw. Permission was granted as below:

You can go ahead and port it. I donÆt have enough time to do it myself. :(
