Known "bugs":
-some times chancing skin causes some graphical glitches, they disappear if you change category
-if you use .net2.0 version from zipfile, rename TouchLaunchNET2.exe to TouchLaunch.exe to get Replace folderview function to work.

Requirements:
.NET CF 2.0
wm6 ( might work with wm5 )
qvga or vga

Instructions:
Download and install the cab file or download the zip file, extract it to any
folder on your ppc and run the exe file.

Making new skins you can look example from premade skins in the skin
folder at installation folder. Adding new just copy your skin xml file
in the skins folder.

Custom icons can be added to iconpacks folder, just make a subfolder
with your favourite icons. Name them similar to shortcuts.
Example: Active Sync.lnk needs Active Sync.png ( or .jpg, .gif etc ) bitmap file.


ToDo:
-nicer option dialog
-appToDate support
-better skin support
-bug fixes
-landscape support
-performance tweaking
-optimizing memory usage
