Unstickying..as I believe most of our membership is aware by now that WCG has migrated to BOINC for our projects :)

If you look in your boinc directory you will see a sub directory called skins. The version of boinc released by WCG already has their skin installed. It would be easy for someone to change the skin.
Wow... a Team Discovery skin would be cool.

That is why I was hesitant to switch when we started this project.

BOINC really has been so much smoother. I have not had any stalled or stuck agents recently and the ability to load a few days work is a real plus.

I suppose if one was clever enough one could figure out how to substitute that little blue pill for the BOINC tray icon.

Boinc is pretty good, though sometimes i have to restart a stuck agent.

I have to admit that I preferred the older and familiar UD client when we first started this run, but I am so glad I made the switch.

BOINC has been very stable for me on all my machines and if you are running the new multiple core processors it's awesome.

And no, lil' didn't smack me upside the head to say that. :D,
Well said. I like the fact its always being improved by the developers, and they're accessible.
