I know I have been here for a couple of years but hardly ever active because I don't think my art style and computer knowledge would fit here and end up pissing someone off. Anyway I am very highly considering purchasing skinstudio 6 and window blinds 6 with WB7 beta for my new os: windows 7 professional. If I bought this in about a hour for about 29.99 will I be to limited upgrading window blinds or would I have to use object desktop suite ? I highly prefer not to use ob

Answer me this then, what are the true requirements for windows 7 ? Have you taken into consideration that many programs are not ready for windows 7, that is due to the fact that Microlost hasn't made it clear enough to software and hardware makers to start fully supporting vista to make at least windows 7 have a backward compatiblity program to use most of vista's x86 and x64 programs. Also some developers like xp alot and hating vista for alot of numorous reasons which makes th
[quote who="BoXXi" reply="3" id="2056236"]Yikes! You put a rainbow on my skin!! [/quote] I didn't know that window bar and start menu belonged to you however the rest of the parts belong to me, also to Boxxi and the others I haven't released any of the skins I made here or anywhere else, pretty much I keep them to myself and also I'm not looking to cause problems or a fight here...
I like doing my skins in my own style that Skin Studio 5.0 did and if you at least screw up something wether it would be graphic wise or coding wise skin studio 5.0 would not let you make the skin work properly without you fixing the problems you made and it would at least tell you whats wrong and fix it a little and the rest is up to you to fix it up and make it work great. Skin Studio 6.0 and beyond that it's software layout of how it wants you to make a skin it's way is not gonna c
In about 2 hours I am going to use a trial of vista home premium I got in the mail last winter, my problem is that 35 of my skins are based on XP OS, and I need some sort of a way to make them compatible with vista and window blinds 6. The thing is with skinstudio 6 it can't convert the skin to be atleast enabled to work with vista and let me fix any bugs or problems I might find like Skinstudio 4.6 and 5.0 did before saving them and not risk screwing up the windows environment a litt
Hey I would like to know if this is possible to do, I know I would have to rename all of my skins parts to match XP's original part put it back on the folder which is hidden on the XP CD and finally rebuild the whole CD for it to MIGHT possibly work... I'm not going to sell the CD at all or the key, I just want to have my own personal version of XP, plus I get sick of the XP blue and green theme and having to reinstall wb v4.6 and get the skin I want on it again. I did pay $109 for it at col
I know that purrball! I have a real key for it in case your wondering.... Thanks for you help Mike that explains why m skins won't fully complete itself on windows 2000. somebody can close and trash this now.
This is one of my 24 skins Miami heat skins this is called Miami Heat 7 Part 3 (Midnight Hurricane) I don't want to host it because of one reason: members and senior skinners would probably flame the livin daylights out of me. Its not to due to copy right issues from 2 other skinners I used from.... its just that people may find it strange or not enough to their standards... in others words not looking for a fight. <img src="http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/993/miamiheat7par
This is my desktop on my laptop right now. When I used windows blinds 4 on 2000 and me a couple if years back it had no problem using a XP based skin shell and putting it either on xp sp1- Me.
hey, I'm currently having a problem getting my skins to fully display right in windows 2000. I'm using wb 4.5 or 4.6 on my 366mhz armada when I apply my skins almost everything is coverd up except my task button taskbar and the start panel... the windows frames appear correctly along with the scroll bars and such but not my taskbar. when I used windows 98 me and 2000 over 5 years ago everything appeared correctly with no problems is their some option in skin studio pro 5 where I can te
I obtained a copy of wb 5.50 from stardock a couple months back ago this year this has been the one that caused so many problems with my vista computer.... I just redownloaded the lastet trial of wb so now its not causing all of those problems that I had earlier. thanks for the help.
well I don't think its the hardware at all, minus the fairly new video card and monitor everything in my case is brand new. I just built this 9th computer last week and it hasn't given me any problems even with vista installed on it...
hi, I own a copy of windows vista I found out that windows blinds 5.0- 5.50 doesn't work so well with vista.... I have tried my many times to get it to work with vista ultimate, sometimes the configuration will open up at start up alot times it won't even bother opening up... also during the past 6 months I've been working on 6 custom skins of my own and none of them has a problem they work well with winxp pro sp2 but will not load up on vista and change the skin of my desktop.... I don't know
thanks for the software. also if somebody knows the maximum width of the start button please let me know. I know the start button can be in 40 maximum height
this is my first Miami Heat skin I did in january of 2006 This is my best skin I did last summer Miami Heat 7 Dark Furricane edition This the last one I'll show for now. Miami Heat X Earth Style for spring and summer time.
hey I'm going to start a new skin in a little while and I was wondering what is the maximum width a start button can have ? you know those windows vista orbs I have 5 that are in different colors and I wanted the skin to show all five orbs in the taskbar is this possible or would I have to resize the orbs just a little bit to make them fit well with the skin ? I plan to call this skin Miami Heat allstars. also is their a way for me to change xp login screen to my style ?
Thanks guys I almost fixed my button problem its not picture perfect but at least its alot more decent I'm sending a pre beta skin to a friend of mine and sometime this weekend after work I'll experiment more with transparent images via through (Paint Shop Pro) only. me and adobe photo shop just don't get along that well.
Somehow when skin studio save the skin the first time something went horribly wrong and I didn't notice it until I tested the skin at 1:15am in the morning when I finished 2 weeks of work creating the blasted skin. also is their good guide for creating transparent glass parts in wincustomize.net ?
Question 1 I use Paint shop pro 7-9 to do alot of graphics and imaging editing creating I talked to keikonium last night and he said in order to make some tranparent glass parts for my skin he said I should use adobe photoshop, thing is I truly hate adobe photoshop and won't even dream about touching it! Can paint shop pro X or 11 handle 32 bit TGA's ? also when making the see through glass like parts will I need to use the color purple to make the parts transparent in order for skin studio 5.1
I have a quick question I want to redesign my site for fall and winter and I was looking at my friends signature (keikonium) layout on another forum and wanted to apply the same design to my site. Instead of his clone of windows vista theme I wanted to use my Modified version of vista theme: Miami heat 2: Golden sunest. I tried to to do that theme before in Macromdeia DW 8 but it didn't look right and I was wondering if anybody new any new page design I could try to get me started. here is a pic
Thanks Night train I was able to fix my problem, it seems like I missed a few buttons to skin and make a few changes like you said, now I only have to do the same of the remaining 3 skins I need to finish before saturday night here is a screenshot of my WB skin : Miami Heat 2 Golden Sunset
Ok I took 2 snapshots of my current problem so that you can see what I'm talking about and also it will not let me delete the attributes.
Hey I'm having a small problem that I am doing right now, I did a skin called Miami Heat and I used 10% of eyeJ's iGlass 1 for the window tool bar and buttons in my skin the frame of the windows shows up perfectly after I modfied it but the window frame buttons show up only with their normal colors and don't match up with the colors frame I created which is black. when I looked at the properties for the buttons in skinstudio 4.5 it had a question mark
I have a real important question to ask you guys ? is there some type of software that will toggle between 2 skins everyday ? example, my custom skin Miami Heat 2 golden sunset in the (morning and day) and miami heat 3 blue fire!! at (night time) is this someway possible to do ? if you don't understand go load AOL 8.0 and 9.0 and go to the logon screen in the morning afternoon and night time and you'll notice how the background changes during the day.
Here is my desktop image I based a little bit on my site and my own talent this is actually a remake of the iGlass skin please don't laugh or mock this skin it took me two month's to fix alot things.... I hope you guy's like it!
