		<description>Tom,

I would need to see some screenshots of your application under Substance and other LAFs that you have mentioned. You can also try creating a higher-contrast Substance skin, since the majority of Substance core skins are by design low contrast.

Thanks

		<description>Hey Kirill,

Maybe you could help me with this one; I&#039;ve hooked Substance into my Swing application a number of times now, and everytime the result is -ahm- disappointing. 

If I use JTattoo (hifi or aero), Nimbus or even Metal, the screens looks crisp. Using Substance it always feels &quot;bland&quot;. I cannot put my finger on it, but it seems to be related to not enough contrast between a panel&#039;s background and the textfields. It most certainly does not look like the crisp screenshots on the substance website. It does not matter what skin I use.</description>

		<description>Congrats, Kirill!

New office skins look great.
But one feature bothers me - Extended tracing of EDT violations. I think it should not throw exception by default, just do some diagnostic output. Consider scenario when some third party library does one little thing off EDT and this will result in nasty crash when moving to Substance. This can frighten new Substance users while providing no real benefit.
Now I use custom Substance build with disabled throwing of EdtViolationException.

And one more thing - Substance webstart demo quickly eats all heap (64m) and becomes unresponsive after enabling animations, switching themes and playing with Vertical buttons tab.
I&#039;ll create message on discussion board and attach heap dump.</description>

I&#039;m glad to see the Vietnamese translation as well.
Hope I can integrate it soon into HiveBoard.</description>
