Default GUI interface

OK, ill be a tad bit more specific.

Here are the things that differ between the screenshots and the actual interface.

1.The Tab highlight does not exist in the version i have. In the screenshot each tab is highlighted with an orange bar, like a normal windows XP tab would be highlighted. Furthermore I am missing the "connections" tab.

2. When searching for "any type" the color of areas around the dialog box is lighter in the screenshot than in mine, regardless of which "skin" is applied. The button that says "search" is rounded like a normal XP button in the screenshot however in my installation it is squared off and looks ugly.

3. While looking through a list of searches, on the screenshots it shows the icon for windows media player (assuming that this is your default player fcor mp3s) whereas on mine it just has some dinky squared off icon with a musical note in it.

4. It seems like all the text that is used is a common java text type as opposed to the standard windows XP font used within apps (Tahoma and Trebuchet).


I have browsed through the "skins" section - none of these screenshots look anywhere similar to those provided at:

IN GENERAL, i have used many Java apps, the always seem to look the same - they have an old and outdated look and feel - like using a wi*** app in win98 kinda thing. In the screenshots limwire looks to be like most winxp apps in that it follows the same styles and behaviors as a normal XP app (with the correct tab colorizations, fonts, shaded colors etc) These aspects are in NO WAY controlled by what "skin" you are using as these seem to only change the colorizations from stark blue to organe and black etc...

NOTE: i AM using the PRO version, 4.2.4

Where are these screenshots coming from??? Why doesn't limewire look like this when you install it?!?!
