The Skins Factory are unlikely to give anyone permission to make ANYTHING from their graphics. Their CEO would have a crying foot stamping fit........ lol. Hi Jeff. :)

BoXXi needs some ObjectDock advice.... in Docks WinCustomize Forums

Hi Guys.... I need to know if the design I have come up with will work as a dock background. Also, can I include the icons (when they are finished) and upload them as an entire theme? Or do I have to upload the dock and the icons seperately? I don't use ObjectDock (I don't even have it installed), So any advice about formats used and the best way to upload will be greatly appreciated. The image should be below......... (it's to match my "En-Gauge" skins that I've been making) B[]

Hmmmm I don't use trails, but I can't find a trails folder either..... I looked everywhere too! So, I can't help you with that I'm afraid. Maybe you could start a new thread and ask if anyone else knows where they are kept? Not sure if you've noticed, but when you are creating a new theme and importing the graphics into CursorFX, there is an option to change the "pressed state" of your cursors. What this means is, you can make the cursor change when the mouse button is clicked

OK...... make all your other cursors, and put them in the same folder as your standard cursor graphic. So when you click on busy and "import", it will go to the folder with all your other cursor graphics, and you can choose your "busy" graphic. Does that make sense to you?

I think it means the dimensions..... Kb size is irrelevant. There must be subtle differences in the frame sizes for it to say that. The best way to create your animations is to start with a document size of say, 50 x 50 pixels, create your animation on several layers within that one .psd, and when it comes to saving the individual frames, do it by turning off all layers except the one you are saving, by using the "eye" icon on each layer. Then go to File - Save for web- set the for

One other thing....... when you click open, AniUtil does it's job instantly, "behind the scenes" so to speak, so don't expect anything to actually happen, like it opening those files in another window, because it doesn't. It just holds on to them until you give it a name and click save....... Skinning is fun eh? :) B[]

Are you SURE nothing happens when you click open? The change in window is very subtle. If you have highlighted all the frames you want in the animation and then clicked open, you should just be able to save them as one file in the same folder. I just tried version 1.5, and its just the same except it says new job instead of process images. So, when you click "new job", look carefully at the window title, it should say "select the images to combine together". Then when you have highlig

It's hard to recommend another program when CursorFX is the pinnacle of cursor creation..... everything else is just an "also-ran". You just have to convince your friends of that too.... :)

This is what I do........ I make the animation in photoshop, each frame is on it's own layer. I then save each layer/frame seperately as a .png file in a folder that I have made especially for my cursor (so I can find it easily). when I save the individual frames I call them something like, Busy1, Busy2 Busy3 etc. I then open AniUtil (I am using version 1.3) and click "Process Images". I browse to the folder where I saved the seperate frames, and ctrl-click each one. (You will notice
