Here is a re-post of the announcement
To all Flexers,
There is a brand new version of PowerSDR, code named "Pretty Betty" that
has been released for testing. This version of PowerSDR utilizes
different "skins" to create multiple visual presentations of PowerSDR.
With this new feature, it is possible to create a different "look and
feel" using a series of graphics to represent the different control
surfaces on the PowerSDR console. Eric (KE5DTO), Matt (KD5FGE) and
Beppe (IK3GIV) have been collaborating for a few months now on the logic
to present the user definable presentations and the graphics to create
several very stunning skins.
You change the skins using the drop down box in the
Setup->Appearance->General menu option.
If you have SVN configured, you can download this version using the
following URI:
svn://206.216.146.154/svn/repos_sdr_windows/PowerSDR/branches/ke5dto/PrettyBetty/bin/Release
Just do a SVN checkout using the path above to a folder you create and
you will have the new version of PowerSDR downloaded to that folder.
For those who are not familiar with SVN code checkouts, here are a few
KC articles you can review.

You change skins using the Setup->Appearance tab in PowerSDR
Please note, that this version , like all versions in the
PowerSDR/branches section of the SVN tree is very much ALPHA/BETA code
and you might find a few things that do not work 100% correctly yet.
Always be care when using alpha code over the air. Please test with a
dummy load first. If you do run across something, PLEASE report it
using the Bug Tracker and do not report bug reports to the Reflector.
They will get lost in the "noise" and the problems will not get
addressed. You can access the Bug Tracker here:
