It probably will. On that thread it says something about fload.exe loading slow (3-4 seconds).
One person said "Now if the skin could load instantly on startup, that would be nice" Mine already does that ^o)

When someone says that one of these skinning programs is "bloated" ask yourself this, "how much bloat is involved in loading a bitmap from the hard disk and blitting it onto the screen"? To put things in perspective, WindowBlinds uses less memory than notepad.
