January Desktop Screenshots

from WinCustomize Forums

Well happy new year everyone. I thought I would get the ball rolling with a new screenshot post seeing how December 2010 has left us.

Here is a new take on Solid State thanks to a new texture I made tonight. I now know how to do them, YEAH! The start menu and taskbar in this shot are not transparent. It is a schematic texture.

Free Dramamine to the first 100 callers to 1-800-BUX-4DOC to contribute to the Shameless Commerce Division of The WC Mod Retirement Fund. After looking at this screenie for >10 sec., you gonna need it!  Wow.  That skin and that texture do NOT Go well together.  The Mozzy Brick one does OK though.

I thought the same thing Zubaz. By the way I cannot even get that texture to work. I posted a comment on the texture page with a link to the ss.

Indeed. Turn around is fair play. ;) :grin:

As an aside . . I turned off the textrue for teh Startpanel (just taskbar an window frame) and it didn't make my head explode.

Ok I got it to work but I had to do this. I downloaded the texture and saved it to Desktop. I changed the extension from .wba to .zip. I extracted the 2 files. I opened the texture file and noticed that the texture names where ZubraStripes3. I also noticed the tga file name was only ZubraStripes without the 3. I changed the name of the tga file to ZubraStripes3, ziped them back up and then it worked fine. I do not know how other are getting this to work because the 2 files have different names and from my experience they need to be the same. The information in the texture file has to have the same name as the tga file so it can detect the image.

I'm working on a similar project.

"The All Seeing Eye". It's a "Hybrid Dream" which I can only portray in the second shot.

 

As you can "see"... The "ZubaZ" taskbar is "hidden" o_O   ;)

@RickJP - Just downloaded Rainmeter. I'm going to have a look-see and perhaps get a feel for how to skin it. Very different from the one I played with awhile back. Thanks for the link.
