I live in southern Maine and we're getting hammered with snow. It's been coming down for more than 24 hours now and there's well over a foot of it on the ground. It's supposed to keep coming until tonight too. I hate shovelling, but I'm confident we'll have a white Christmas now, at least.

Humanity has lost all their ships. Zion's a pile of rubble. This is something that's puzzled me since we first learned of the previous incarnations of Zion and The One. If the machines destroyed Zion each time, then how was it rebuilt and where did the ships come from each time? Did a few humans "awaken", go underground, and begin bu

Ok, lets hear it. What exactly happened? Has Neo been absorbed into the Source? Did he and Smith cancel each other out, balancing the equation? What is the deal with the little girl? Did she paint that sunrise for Neo? What is her role? As a program, does she now serve a purpose in the Matrix? Did the Architect and the Oracle say that people who wanted to be freed from the Matrix would be? What do you think? [Message Edited]

You should be able to just double-click the apollo.docktheme file and ObjectDock will install and apply it for you. If, for some reason, it doesn't have the .docktheme extension, try renaming it.

You can click on their name and see if they've posted their email address. Otherwise, you can leave a comment on their screenshot asking what skins they're using. People should list what skins they are using on their screenshots, but sometimes they don't.

My AVIs are around 13k. I also tried Ulead, but I wasn't able to get them to work with that. Gif Movie Gear produced AVIs with the same properties as the default ones and they work. As for the red background, Windows uses that as a transparency color in some instances. Gif Movie Gear: http://www.gamani.com/gmgdown.htm [Message Edited]

I have figured some things out, with the help of Neil and Adam, the developers of WindowBlinds and SkinStudio. First of all, there is a bug in the current WB build that prevents the animations from showing unless you check the third animation option (Always use the selected animations) in the WindowBlinds configuration. The AVI needs to use MS-RLE compression, also apparently called RLE8. After trying out about 6 different programs, I discovered that Gif Movie Gear pr

Mitch, look in your \SkinStudio\Template folder and you'll find examples of the toolbar image strips. Color depth can be up to 32bit with alpha, since they can be TGA format, if you wish. There are four strips in total for Internet Explorer; Normal and hot (active) strips at 24x24, and normal and hot strips at 16x16.

How did you do it, Bones2112? What program did you use to create the AVI and what kind of compression did you use? I've tried about 6 different programs and I'm pretty sure I'm using the right compression, but I haven't been able to get it to work yet.

Look in your \SkinStudio\Template folder. There are examples of all the new images and AVIs. Just copy them to your skin folder and choose them from the drop-downs in SkinStudio. Then open 'em up in your image editor and replace them with your own.

The current build of WindowBlinds doesn't support these new features, but one that does is due out soon. In the meantime, I also need to figure out how to create AVI's.
