Notes in changes.txt - there is 10 sentences in changes.txt in windows platform
(I'm not talking about revision.txt) and iirc 4 are connected with
bitmaps/design/colors of About window. But I have used wrong word. Instead of
color I mean design but it mainly apeared as color change for me.

The thread goes in the wrong direction. Sorry for bothering you. Internally (in
my mind) it is wider problem not connected with this design change but rather
with development model of POV. I'm affraid to express it with my English so I
prefer to not discutte (my thoughts are just thoughts not attacks as they are
recived :-( ).
