hm, i have the gimp 2.0 (windows beta), and it didn't work... but it may have to do with the fact that i worked a lot with layers which i took at least partially from bmp images, so maybe this messed some things up.

Smurth: it doesn't work when hooking modules?? oh no... that was what i just wanted to do next, just didn't try so far... :'(
maybe can you tell me your tricks...? :) i need to use skinbox, everything else would be a real big mess :(

[edited something here, then removed because it was crap :/]

you know, i absolutely want to use skinbox because of its !Bitmap bang. as far as i can tell, there's no other module like this that allows to change its bitmap on runtime, is there?
