yeah, great work

Olivier should have a MyAES version for the Firebee, try this
(nano-tek) out on it:

I have updated the AES skinning tuts to cover both windfram's curently
available for MyAES if anyone feels like thrashing something out
http://afros-update.sourceforge.net/myaes-skinning.html

Maybe we have MyAES + XaAES themes for the Firebee by release date,
would be cool
