SKS/WB/IP/IE/ETC Questions in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

1) The mouse-over text for IE/Explorer insists on being gray. Is it a glitch? If not, where's the color setting? 2) When including a default wall, I can't get it to load unless it's a BMP. Anyway to make it work with a JPG? 3) When including a default IconPackager theme, I can't get it to load. Is it because I'm using shareware versions or am I doing something wrong? 4) The Desktop icon in the explorer dialog skins at random. Bug?

If I remember correctly, there was a mini-series of comics called Secret Wars. Kind of a cross-over of all Marvel characters. Anyway, Peter Parker finds the black goo and it becomes his new Spidey suit. But the public hated it so much, they brought back the old suit, gave the new suit a brain, and made it a bad guy.

Reply to Explorer Toolbar backgrounds skinning at random in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

Well, yeah, I figured I may have answered my own question but I didn't think Stardock would program the shareware version to randomize skinning certain elements. :shrug:

Explorer Toolbar backgrounds skinning at random in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

Anyone know why? Sometimes they load up skinned but most of the time they load up flat style. This applies to all skins. I'm running the latest shareware version.

Most people around here call that "Magic Pink" but normal people call it Magenta. That's a masking color that tells WB to make those pixels transparent. If you want to use that color, make sure that you don't have the "Transparent" box checked for that particular element.

This thread ( https://www.wincustomize.com/msgboard.asp?BID=WCS&id=187649 ) was more helpful than anything else I've read on SkinStudio. The best way to learn, however, is just by good ol' trial and error. It might seem daunting at first but don't be afraid to play around. For instance, in the custom colors. If you're not sure what one is, just switch it to a bright gaudy color and apply it. You'd be suprised at where it shows up sometimes.

Reply to Object Dock Background? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

In your dock settings, there should be a slider next to the background drop-down menu. Slide it all the way to transparent.

I think the question was regarding order in which uploads are processed and the answer is nope. You just gotta sit back and be patient.

Reply to please remove in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

I'm only working on my second skin and I find it easier to use my first as a template. Probably only because I found the original naming scheme of the files to be confusing and renamed them all.
