i started off using it but got frustrated :P

its annoying that i still need to use the memory using Button Facade for the Dream Layout skin, there is probably a better way of removing the ugly blizz borders so i will look for some ractionbutton styler skin when i can be bothered :P
Try using !SimpleSquare from Neal's UI to put the border on things. All you need to do in your addon is put a call like this in with the dimensions you want the boarder to be:

Code:
CreateSimpleSquareBorder(Minimap, 12, 0, 0, 0, 5, 5, 4, 5, 5, 4, 4, 4)
There is documentation in the !SimpleSquare folder on what each argument is for.

I'd rather try to use this over setting up kgPannels. (This is how i got my textures in my compilation on my minimap, Filger Icons and bars, and a few other items.
