This is the last part we'll do here for the Start Menu. We're skipping the All Programs List Background, the Extended Menu Separators, and the Text Coloring. We're skipping those becuase whatever we apply to them also effect other areas of the skin and vice versa and to be honest, I'm not that far along to start deciding what colors I want where without knowing how they will look when they cross over into other areas. The part we'll do now is the Star Menu Log Off

Okay. Now we'll get into something a little harder which is the 'All Programs Mouseover'. I'm going to try and explain what we've done here and why. On a personal note, I didn't want the 'Mouseover' image for this area to 'magically appear' on the background. That was fine for the button mouseovers in the right and left panel and I think the images/sugg

The next image we're going to import will be for the Search Field at the bottom of the Start Menu. For this, we'll close the Start Menu window and in the main SKS window select ' Theme Part Details ' from the bottom left. The first area we should see in the new list is the ' Address Field ' which is what we want to

The separator image I originally intended to use was this (minus the background) I tested it and it worked relatively fine. On the left side there was one 'half' stitch showing but it didn't look bad. Tim looked at it and sent back a new image. It was just 'ONE' stitch. Since we are tiling the image, we only need one and SKS will do the rest, tiling it across the area. (You can fin

In Frame Builder, I am using two images (Normal & Mouseover). Both images are the same dimensions. Becaue Frame Builder is doing all the math for you as far as seperating multiple images evenly, etc., and being new to this, I want to be sure it does it correctly. I select ' Import Into All Frames ' and import the non-transparent image. This will put that image into both frames and tells Frame Builder the dimensions it will be working with in all of the frame

[quote who="Xiandi" reply="188" id="3078162"]Is the mouseover image the same size as the background? If so, go to the background layer and set all the text margins to zero.[/quote] Got it. Worked great. Thanks. ;) *Going to be on later than usual today to finish up the start panel. I (hopefully) just got some good news and have to run into the city. Keep your fingers crossed. This has been a freaking long time coming and I'm hoping the worst of the wait is over.

[quote who="Sir_Linque" reply="48" id="3078042"]Does it make me worse than most if I'm willing to admit that I can't really be bothered by this? If I had a button I could press that would make all of the despicable slave labor stuff go away, I wouldn't hesitate a moment before pressing it, and I'm glad to see any of the corrupt fuckers to burn, but I accept that things are the way they are and that I exploit the lives of millions of people every day as I live in the western wo
