yes i know that you can extend the size of the window, however im on an 800x600 resolution, as it stands my skin options panel is 450x315, in height my options panel just barely fits on my screen and even then the cancel and ok buttons are mostly hidden under my taskbar with just the top bit showing, fortunately i remembered which is on the left and which is on the right so it doesnt really cause me any problems but could annoy other people, i dont have enough space to increase it width wise as it will cause the same sort of problem im having with the height, therefore its no longer practical to put it all in skin options, my only solution could be that i stuff it all on an image and shrink the image to fit in the space, however the text will look really tiny and those im crediting would probably need a magnifying glass to see what ive written.

its a shame we dont have an about window in skinning, scripts could have them and it seems rather unfair that skins can't oh well ill have to figure something out on my own i guess.
