>One of the things that is going to kill off foxpro is that the .NET apps all look more fancy and have this new look-and-feel to them comparied to the old-tired VFP apps. Being able to toss a set of skins in the app in just a few minutes might help....hahaha

I agree here, although it is not really something to laugh about.
Indeed VFP apps nowdays tend to look a bit outdated comparing to glitzy NET interfaces, but hey that is just a surface.
If developer is a bit more agile, this can be greatly improved.

In this repect Boudewijn's VFPSkins on VFPx sound like very good idea.
