WinFX - A windows XP enhancement.
-Make windows transparent choosing a value between 0-255 (0-invisible 254-solid 255-off)
-Mouse wrapping (If mouse reaches edge of your screen it will wrap to the other side)
-Change start button text.

Changes only occur after the window is clicked. it will stay in the windows taskbar and apply settings when needed. To exit it right click on task bar icon and click exit.

I made my own install program. :S lol
installs to C:\winFX\
The install program can also uninstall so don't lose it.

-GUI - Made in MMF2
-WinFX - Made in Autoit
-Installer - Made in Autoit

I forgot to mention:
-Set the window size slightly less than u think urs is.
-You need a good computer at least 512mb ram pentium 4 etc

@Hempuli: Try setting ur X window size 5 less than what u have it set in the program atm.

Wow... WAY simple installer, I can't even choose where to put stuff!

The program messed up stuff for me, namely:
- It made my window transparent while I told it to stay at 255.
- Mouse wrapping won't work over the whole screen, while I DID define the full screen.
- No change in the start button text.
- Wraps while I told it not to?

So overally, it doesn't do what I want; it does the opposite. Thumbs down.

Yeah, this kind of app certainly needs testing on different machines, VDUs etc. before a proper release. I personally wouldn't use it but it's still a pretty cool idea.

Seems as though you sucked it up when it came to the installers installing place. but I have vista so I don't think it'd work.

Looks a lot like a clone of WindowFX by Stardock, even the name is similar. So rather then calling this a released program, I'd release it as a concept experiment or something.
