Of course, you probably want to go ahead and also add "BevelBitmapEffect", "BitmapEffectGroup", "BlurBitmapEffect", "DropShadowBitmapEffect", "EmbossBitmapEffect" to that file too ;-) In the next release you won't need to add these, 'cause they'll be there by default, plus the Add-BootsFunction function which you can use now, will be a permanent step so you won't need to keep running it over and over ;-) <code lang="posh"> Add-BootsFunction System.Windows.Media.Effects.OuterGlowBitmapEffect </code> Yeah, sorry about that … you just need to add OuterGlowBitmapEffect to the list of things that PowerBoots loads … the complicated but easily permanent way is to make a file in the powerboots folder called: “PresentationFramework^System.Windows.Media.Effects.Proxies.txt” and put “OuterGlowBitmapEffect” (without quotes) on a line by itself in that file.

I had to remove the BitmapEffect from line 122 to get it to work on my machine, though. I was getting an error about 'OuterGlowBitmapEffect' not being recognized. Works great on my machine without it though! Very cool!
