I tried what you put below, but now the title bar is gradientified, not
the text *IN* the title bar.. I could only achieve the desired effect by
doing the following.
setting the look to look.James
and then setting the look to
look.Afterstep
which results in a blue->black title bar with text that fades from yellow
to red.. any more help appreciated
