Finally I've decided to release the library, just before my holidays!
I've done many improvements and fixed many bugs, but the library is far to be complete.
At this time is fully usable, I've tested with many sample applications and it works quiet well, please test and report problems you may encounter.
Here is a brief summary of what you are getting with this version:

*** KNOWN PROBLEMS ***
- FWin
Actually the fake windows system is a little tricky but works quiet well, if you
try to update a gadget that belong to a window covered by another one the gadget
will be popped up.
In the next version this problem will be fixed
At first window opening the system will save the background to a temporary file
to load it as a brush so it can be slow. This will be fixed when Hollywood will
have a command to save a portion of screen directly into a brush (AFAIK in the
next release).Sorry but I have to lock the thread: too much spam!
