Hi!
Appologies if this is offtopic, but i would be sooo nice to have no border/padding (whatever it is).
I am using Windows Classic theme on Win7.
As i think everyone knows there is a thin white border/margin/padding (i'm not sure exactly what it is) arround every window (at least using the classic theme).
I would like to see this border GONE :), or, if it cannot be killed than at least not contain a white 1px line.

I would even pay *money* if anyone can eliminate that cleanly.

Look at the screenshot with magnify tool if it's not clear.

Display fusion has a feature that reduces padding size, however I think that feature MAY be specific to windows 8

Alternatly a quick search of google revealed this tutorial:
