[quote who="Frankief" reply="26" id="3073797"]No, I am saving from Photoshop as a transparent PNG and it shows transparent in icon developer but when I save the icon it saves with a black background. I can open the same png in Photoshop and save as an icon and the background is transparent. [/quote] I am trying and can't even duplicate this on purpose. Exactly how are you saving it in Photoshop?

They look great! I got Cinema4D but I can't wrap my head around working with it. You skinners working with the 3D programs make it look so easy...it drives me nuts. ;)

I have more extensions than you and no issue with the update. Have you tried the option to restart FF with your add-ons disabled to see if there is a difference? (Under Help>Restart with Add-Ons Diabled)

What a pain in the ass this was. Previous SS of Header Bar - Used rounded corners on top and bottom...then just on bottom...doesn't tell you NOT to use rounded corners. The freaking separators....geez. I can't explain what I did to get them to what you see below but all the previous versions were too dark, too wide, and awful. Maybe one of you Pro's can explain it (for the Wiki). Texture is gone (per Karen) and I think I took care of the 'Glass

I'm working on the Headerbar Controls (see below) I applied them and they show up in explorer but when I take the window out of full screen, they revert back to Diamonds graphics. Is the 'Glass Explorer Windows' graphic what I need to change to fix that? And do I need to do all 7 states? (Diamond uses 5 for both) ***AND when I try to edit the text margins in the header bar, only 'Filename' adjusts. I can't move the rest of them at all. (Tryi

[quote who="Daiwa" reply="69" id="3073160"]You sure that really happened? That there were no other issues?[/quote] I don't want to dredge up a lot of old stuff. I honestly don't even remember who was involved. I think that it was an issue of a majority of the graphics being identical in size and shape to the point that they might as well have just been recolored and such. Jafo probably remembers more of it. I'm not trying to start it all up again as it was an ugly episode.

About six years ago, Phoenixheart started a thread titled 'Rare Icon Request' which got 1907 hits in four years. I cut my teeth on Photoshop doing requests in that thread as did a few other skinners. I lost count of the icons I did. I also lost count of the Iconpackages I started or OD packs I started because of ideas I got fr
