Skins

Since V1,44, VSTHost's UI look can be customized. I don't know why, but the expression "Skin" has gained wide acceptance for this, so I'm using it for VSTHost, too.

VSTHost includes a skin called "DefaultSkin" in the Data subdirectory; the control file is heavily commented so that it should be easy for you to create your own. If you create a nice skin and want to share it, please contact me, and I'll put it online here.
