Hey Rocky
I found that simply adding some subtle shaded textured coloured bmps
backgrounds (I created) to my opening and menu selection forms made a real
difference, it adds overhead depending on the size of the bit map, but when
I released an update of an application with this incoporated, my clients
responded "Hey Cool" I like the new look. Not had that response before on a
new release before.
