Not sure if the Windows version is updated from 2.6.0 to 2.6.1 yet.

Windows is not updated. However, it's not that much of a problem in my opinion. I still use 2.3.?.

They made some really nice changes to it. Thanks!! [e digicons]:grin:[/e]

Wow, I am thrilled with the changes. The one thing that drove me nuts was the fact that everything was free floating around my desktop. Having it all in one window is a great improvement. Now I won't have to waste time clicking on individual windows to find my tools, whatever filter I am currently using, etc. Thanks for the heads up. [e digicons]:*[/e]

I`m still using 2.2 i updated to a newer version and had trouble with png transparency so i switch back!!

Does anyone know if the .psd export function has been updated? Since I don't have photoshop I can't make Xion skins. (Yes - I know I can't make animations due to no layer sets, but before I couldn't even make a skin where the play button worked.)

Windows is updated to 2.6.1, I installed it yesterday. So far, I'm loving it - the reduction of taskbar clutter alone is worth the update.
