I just used the word "spiffy" in two consecutive posts!! I'm turning into Prince Charles!!!!! [e digicons]:(O[/e] Shoot me now!!
BoXXi
Start menu looking so much better now...... and with spiffy new seperators too!!
Well, yesterday, Cyndie (Xiandi) gave up her valuable time to help me on the start menu and some other things. So now it is looking quite spiffy and I should be able to get on and finish it now!! Hopefully it won't be too long...... :) Thank you Cyndie...... [e digicons]:inlove:[/e]
Thank you everyone!! I was trying my best to ignore it......... apparently that's normal when you get to my age :) Doc and Po....... you DO make me laugh....... :) Thanks again guys!! B[]
Thanks Cyndie, I found it eventually!! lol. I did change it, but it looked awful and screwed up too many other things too, so it'll have to stay. I can live with it....... :) AceMatrix: that's VERY cool, I like it!!
Tim.... You have never made a boring skin yet!!!!! B[]
haha..... I don't think so Morten! It's just that times change I guess. Back then it was all about screen real estate and if you made a titlebar taller than 25 pixels high people screamed. Maybe they had a point, I was running 800x600 back then on a 14" monitor, but my artistic visions didn't fit into 25 pixels so I just went ahead and made them anyway.... :) These days I run 1920x1080 on a 27" screen so those few extra pixels don't matter so much and we get great skins like V
Yes, but that is Explorer (windows). I want to change the same text but in Internet Explorer. In SKS I see settings for IE7 and IE9, but not 8. At the moment my IE text is black, I want it to look like that image you just posted. Does that make sense? :)
Hmmm that didn't work...... :(

[quote who="Snowman" reply="18" id="3076361"]Are you -still- struggling with that? Been a few years, since I helped you the first time. Ought to have learned it by now.[/quote] Thanks for pointing out that I'm useless Snowy......... [e digicons]XD[/e]
[quote who="2of3" reply="19" id="3076364"]As far as I know the address bar text is controlled by the toolbar button text.[/quote] But where do I find that? I get confused there are that many bloody buttons!!! :)
Hmmmm I've done all those things with WB skins in the past..... Animation, buttons on the side, Hover text, my BlackBoXX Ultra skin even has the titlebar on the bottom of the window!! But you know what? people don't really want them!! They might say "oh, that is different" but ultimately not many download them..... I don't mind that, I make 'em cos I like them, and because I like my stuff to be different, but I guess if you use download numbers as a guide then people do w
Oh Tim, I do have a question...... Where is the setting that changes the colour of the text in that address bar in Internet Explorer (you can see in the SS why I need to change it.) I use IE8.......... :)
Might be a bit late now, but my advice would have been to include versions with no text on them. Many people don't like text on their walls. (Although I am often guilty of it myself.... lol) B[]
Hi Tim, I've sent Cyndie a PM today. [quote who="2of3" reply="14" id="3076339"]What do those buttons on the top left do?[/quote] They blow up your monitor if you give away secrets................ [e digicons]*_*[/e]
hehe.... I think we all know where he is....... :)
Thanks guys, still having trouble with the start menu, not sure if it can be fixed with tiling margins, or maybe layers, or if I need to redesign it.....:(
Thank you Seth......... (haven't seen Brad's post) (?) Starcandy: I have already made a few Parisienne skins (do a search.... :) ) and I've always wanted to complete the suite with a WB, but I've only just got around to it........ (had a rough year).
This is the skin that I'm making while following Po and 2of3's tutorial thread, hopefully I get information there to help me make this the best it can be. Still LOTS of stuff to do yet though and some problems to solve, but i'm hanging in there! Don't ask about the buttons at top left of the window, it's a secret......................... B[]
/me drums his fingers on the desk...........
Sweet!! Lovely colours Shaunna........ :)
