ICK! :( Any WB skinners willing to test for me?

April 6, 2003 8:21 PM from

I hate to beg but I'm getting frustrated!

Can someone or two-someones or how many ever someones please test my skin? It's only 75% done (mostly just some minor buttons and coloring left as well as some tiling and transparency probs) but I think there is some major crud wrong with it already. Great salespitch for testing something, I know!

The url to download it is at: http://www.darkseraphim.com/AquaBlue.wba

YOU HAVE BEEN FOREWARNED!

PLEASE if you do decide to test this for me (which I will appreciate immensely) please make a backup in XP or something... YES, I'm paranoid but I've never made a WB skin before!

Hey, better safe than sorry. It works fine on MY puter but I have NO idea otherwise.

BTW, I don't want to know anything 'good' about it at ALL. I want to know everything wrong/crappy/icky about it! There is NO way I'm gonna up this thing until I can get as many funky things worked out as possible beforehand. So just let into me with both barrels!

Any and all input even 'harsh' reality is good for me!

This kind of serious stuff needs it and I don't EVER want someone's puter to wig out because of something STUPID I did.

With that said, I hope someone can brave it!

... Well, the thing is...some stuff is still funky... If you would, try using it for a while and see if you find some anomalies.... K? I'd really appreciate it!

Only if you properly batter them in an egg dip...and then a spiced breadcrumb mixture and then deep fry!

Seriously though, I'm concerned with the icky parts you found... So, I need to know...what WB version you are running? Cuz it works fine on my version but I only have 3.5a running it.

Shmoopy, I am usin WB rc 3.99e. No problems so far. I am in the process of adding some sounds. I DO like skins with the rollup, but I HAVE to have the sound from the Binary skin.

I put the rollup in because I think that is one of the coolest features of WC.

I checked and double checked my code...not sure what to think?

I'm using latest WB build w/ no probs. Only suggestion is to increase the font of name on start panel. I had to look hard for something to suggest. Look at my desktop for a ObjectBar usage of your stuff! Great job and THANX

Coolest features of WB that is.

Well, I'll keep hacking...for some reason my code checks out fine so far...but maybe some features are not cohesive yet? The strangest part for me is the start bar thing though! That just wigs me out!

Roll up works using button, but not by right clicking on bar. This is not uncommon.
