Hmm, well If I 'Import from disk', nothing happens... Niether from the zip or wba...

Err, Install from disk...

I would assume WB doesnt recognize it as a skin...

*Reword* Possibly theres an error in the .uis (or something like that) that is preventing recognition...

I just tried it with another skin that I used the un-zip feature and it worked....you have to be missing some file in this...

Youve got mail...

Ok...go to bed.... I'll see what I can do. If I can't figure it out I'll enlist the aid of one of the WC gurus.....

One more 'clue'...All the WB's that I d/load dont work... (Just got Hellfire and GT2) But already installed ones work fine...

Allrighty (*yawn*)...good luck...




Oh great, Ive still got the dishes to do...

Tom.....sent the error message to you. I don't think the problem you're having with loading skins has anything to do with this. After 'trolling' NGs and chat it appears any number of people are having problems similar to yours (not being able to install new skins) and have either retreated back to release version or lived with the skins they have installed already...which in itself isn't a bad thing (I have a ton already installed)

Got both messages and sent the one to Adam...Removed my skin last night so I won't have more dissappointed ppl d/loading it...

Download the newest version of SS Pro, rename the SS save to 'Sailors Delight' and it will install. The only file I found to have a problem is the preview at bottom of WB config.......

Ive been using the shareware version of SS, and just got the new free version...Must it be pro? (ObjectDesktop is on my Christmas wish-list)

Well yes, it does 'install' when SS saves it...But the files are really just there from when SS opened it... If I remove the folder, and click on 'Sailors Delight.wba' it creates a new empty folder called SAILORS DELIGHT in the windowblind directory...

Yrag, what time did you go to sleep last night?

Went to sleep too late....

I don't have a copy of the Standard SS (although I believe there was an update to the model today), but in the Pro when you save it , it saves it to the WB folder as an install (which it wasn't doing prior to todays Pro update). When you bring up WB config and click 'Sailors Delight' it applies the skin....I get no errors, but it still doesn't show the preview.
...give me a minute and I'll make a .wba in Pro and see what happens

...saved as a zip/wba and clicked on it. All files installed in WB folder. Hit WB config and it loaded like a charm....one thing I did not have to do this time (for whatever reason) is change the name. Leave it as is.

BTW....nice skin

Ok, got the email...Hmm...Lets see what I can do...

Do you encrypt all your emails, or just the ones with sensitive information?

If you don't see a digital signature on an e-mail from me....it ain't from me

Ok, well...I think its working, but...It turns out that in a backup copy of the skin, all the directories in the code point to a folder that doesnt exist anymore...

/m changes 'SDb' to 'SD'...SDb to SD...SDb...

Dang it, theres another wish-list item...A WC subscription....

That was the problem I found in yesterdays version of Pro and that's why I changed the name to 'Sailors Delight'. I noticed the problem when I saved it twice...1st folder name was 'SDb' and second was 'SD1'...that shouldn't happen. If you get this name thingy together (and it might be already) then the upload is good to go

You want an awful lot for Christmas...

Dont ask how that happened...

....won't say a word

A WC subscription...Primarily for the 'Edit Post' function...Comes in handy quite often...

Arrrg, how do I stop it from making the folder 'SDb'?

Let it make the folder...it shows up as 'Sailors Delight' in WB config. Apply the skin in config and it should load on your system.....
