Deb, does this support the theme changes in pocket pc 2003 version?

Not yet, Ron. Future versions may include this capability, but so far we do not have any "official" word from Microsoft on the exact nature of the updates. Keith at KAMware has been doing a good job of figuring this all out for himself, but we are probably looking at a complete re-write. If we are able to put together this major update, it will probably be offered for slightly more cost.

I run at very high resolution 1600x1200.
I set my system up to use the Windows Standard Extra Large settings. With that, your software is almost unusable. The position of the controls are weird and do not line up.

Jeffery, If you are using large fonts you should set ThemeMaker McDeb to not use a skin. In the settings, choose "none" in the skins section and you will be all set.
