Mui is wonky

MUI is infinitely customizable.  Which can be both a blessing and I curse, I suppose.  Lol.  You might start by saying what version you're using and what screen resolution you're running it at.  Also is this a fresh install or something old?  Maybe try posting a few screenshots of exactly what you're seeing?  For example: which application are you using that you're having a problem with, etc.

You can still register it here:  http://www.sasg.com/cgi-sasg/order_info?app=MUI

He wasn't responding to registrations for several years, but now he is again.

That being said, a registered version does allow additional customization but isn't required.  When you say "Nothing looks like it should", what are you basing that statement on?  Every app that uses MUI can look different.  Every person who uses MUI can set it up to look a different way.  There is no definite "it has to look this way" standard.  That's a *feature*.  

Why don't you post a few screenshots so people can see what you're looking at?

I agree that this should be started by telling the MUI version. Is it the original 3.8 or some new branch.

For a classic system you should be running 3.8 off Aminet. There's a few additional updates you can do on top of that but I'd avoid the newer 3.9/4.x versions unless you have at least an '040+graphics card.

Are you saving the settings after changing them?

I suspect he's confused between the main MUI settings vs the application-specific settings. A few screenshots and some additional information (version, etc.) would go wonders for sorting this out.
