change "search field" image? in SkinStudio WinCustomize Forums

I have been trying for hours to change the "search field" image. I can make it disappear via "start menu/bottom bar/ extra settings/offset but cannot figure out how to alter the image to blend in with the bottom bar. This is really holding me back in regards to skin creativity. Can anyone please help? Thanks, Klatuu

2of 3, I started a new skin, skinned only the uis2 frames went to Edit UIS2 frames > Titlebar buttons > Actions tab and set the sounds, enabled button sound support, still no sounds. Is there code I need to do through notepad or something?

Help! I'm pretty sure the ability to assign sounds to buttons eg "close. min...etc... must be in skinstudio 7 somewhere, but for the life of me I just can't find it!

Thanks Tim, please forgive my ignorance in regards to your name. I'm half blind, do to mini stroke, and not as sharp as I used to be when I was young. Anyway, I got the user pic icons lined up perfectly, did an animated tga for the top panel, and now I've just got to do all the little deatils. When I post the updated version, don't turn red from the credit I will be giving you. You definately have some good Karma coming your way, even if that is not your name. Thanks a million, again. I

Well I managed to figure out the power button, thanks to you. But the "user pic" icons just won't move. I went to the "text margins for the top section of the start panel controls" but no changes I made there seemed to move the user pic and its subsequent icons. I'm sure my simple brain is missing something, but can't seem to figure out what it might be. Oh, scratch that, I did get it to move. Not where I wanted it to of course, but that will just take some playing with the settings. Thanks a

Karma I cannot thank you enough. I'm hip to the png tga thing, alpha trans way cooler than magic pink. I don't want to bother you too much, I know the best way to learn this is "get in there, find it, do it" but if I could trouble you with 2 more questions...Can I reposition those icons instead of disabling, and can I reposition or image change the power off/log off red/blue buton? Thank you so much again for your help. On an unrelated note, is Jafo still around?

Reply to Help converting my old skins to Windows 7 in Windows 7 WinCustomize Forums

Thanks Karma, that's probably the way to go. Although I've managed to "fix" quite a few things, starting with a fresh template and updating my graphics might save a lot of headache, and make the skin function/look better. I really appriciate the offer of help, I'm sure I will need it, especially when trying animation in the start menu. In fact, here's a question I have already. In 7, when you mouse over computer/control panel/documents etc... you get a different icon popping up at the top of

Hi, some of you may remember me, I used to post a lot of skins here, and would like to contribute to this community again. Creating a windowblind skin used to be an easy task for me, but now that I have aged and had some health issues, and Windows has changed so much from XP, it is quite a challenge to "re-learn" I would very much like to convert some of my old skins to Windows 7, but have not had much luck getting them to look right. If anyone would consider "updating" my OB1 skin, p

Reply to SkinStudio 6 Preview! in SkinStudio Help WinCustomize Forums

I am eagerly awaiting it's arrival! However, at the risk of being politically incorrect, I hope the new "ease" of SKS does not provoke a rash of substandard skins. Hopefully it will have the opposite effect and just make a challenging task less complicated.

Can anyone help an old man who has lost his memory? I downloaded a WB Skin about a year ago, it had a brain as the user icon and some animation, but I can't for the life of me remember the name. Thanks in advance.
