Well, I'm pretty vocal about my feelings on it, as you know. I think the quality of skins is poor compared to the 'old days', as it were. Although when it comes right down to it, if I want a skin made the way I'd like, I would do it myself. Most people make for themselves, then upload. So there's always going to be someone who moans. (Usually me... )

60% of the Earths population speak a language other than English. Technically WE'RE the minority. And besides, this is a free forum, if you speak Spanish, answer, if not, don't post in the thread. it's that simple. It only gets messy when stuff like this happens, and now the original poster doesn't know what's going on here.
9 and a half grand? Are you buying on the black market?.......
Ok, I know for a fact that you're not new to skinning. But that's quite a good impression there of someone who is, morphium........
aahhh noooo! Don't encourage them!!
All of the programs will work with it. It's just that some elements from a couple of them won't be present. The main example would be that WB would no longer have a taskbar to skin. But other than that, if you were so inclined, you could have DX running alongside your Litestep theme, ditto for OB.
Snowman is the man to ask. He'll have a copy archived. I'll tell him to pop his head in here at some point.
Presumabley it's for a Stardock app, so you will have received your code in an e-mail that would also have told you where to put it.
You are aware of how busy those folks at Stardock really are? They can't just drop everything they're doing in the middle of a large project just to sort all your problems out. When they have time and resources available to fix a problem, they will, and they'll let everyone know. Do you honestly believe they'd ignore a problem with one of their main programs? Please.....
Very likely not. Unless someone else can put up the time and effort to get it off the ground.
Yeah, same here. I wish per-pixel was supported in more apps. Really kills a good skin sometimes when it needs to be aliased.
The circle was for example purposes. I could just have easily used an irregularly shaped object.

I think the only way would be to use WB scripting to create the animations, then you could control them.
The left margins pushes both the text and icon to the right. It does work. The right margin, however, doesn't affect the icon, and actually pulls the text to the right, on it's own. Very weird setup.
You can generally miss out 96, 74 and 64 thought.
Winamp 3 has been canned. Project is dead. I think you may well be confusing it with the new WA5 beta that came out.
Glad to help.
The way the text colour work is you set up presets, and then assign them to various sections. In your case, the skin you're trying to change most likely has the same colour preset set for the userpane and the other parts that change. You'd need assign an alternate preset for the Userpane to change it independantly.
Microsoft came up with a great program that does it. Called something like 'Windows'.......
You could use content margins to hide the text and only show the icon, although I don't know if this would decrease the space between task buttons, or if you'd have a big gap where the rest of it should be.
You've forgotten the skinners who will use the bulb from another lamp as well..........
A watched skin never boils.....
The image has to be the same height as the scrollbar. By default each one is 16x16 as that's the default Windows scrollbar height. If you're using metrics in WB, or have set it in windows display properties to be bigger, then the image would need to be bigger.
Yes it does. The helpfile explains all the elements, and how to begin creating a skin, plus the naming conventions for the appropriate graphic images.
