Looks like every man and his dog wants to see the Poms get their arses kicked this Xmas So you've already booked your one way ticket to Fantasy Island? I'll overcome
I'll have whatever you're having
Thanks a lot guys. As always very helpful.
Hi. Can anyone give me hints regarding this matter? I've tried twice now and both attempts have been rejected. I am including the .jpg file as well as the .zip file when uploading the skin so I don't know what's going on. And no, the subject matter is not dodgy.
Hi, just a quick question. In order to make an adjustment to the picture of an already uploaded skin, do I just get the correct image and re-upload the whole thing again or is it something else like an update button hiding somewhere? Thanks in advance
No...it definitely wasn't you....but it's politic that the twit remains nameless... Agreed
I found it the height of stupidity/ignorance for one to end up asking ME where to get 'suitable' images to turn into bootskins since each and every site he was sourcing strictly prohibited public re-use. I do hope this was a general comment and not one directed at me since I don't remember EVER h
It's kind of working.Thanks. Trial and error I'm afraid. I'm using Photofiltre. I think I sorted out the problem though and that is I need a circular canvas, I think. I don't suppose you've got one of those have you?
Very good analogy. Got it. Thanks
But you have to try at least, or you wont ever be able to make a circle from a square!...LoL Yeah yeah yeah. I actually have over the ast few days sweated blood to be able to do this Now if you could pleas
I think I know what you're saying Scion. I can't use a team logo as it is. However I can if I were to distort it ( change colours - which is a bit silly for a team logo, skew it etc ) then that counts as 'fan art' and is OK?! Surely an image inspired by a team logo relies on the base image from where the inspiration comes from? From what you say using a base image is wrong but "inspired" work is OK. Surely this is wrong as well since the "in
Hi, having read through a previous thread regarding this issue the only thing about it that is black and white is that it's totally grey. e.g. is there any difference between acknowledging someone elses work and getting permission from them? Over the brief time that I've been coming to this site I've seen skins, if not partially but totally using someone elses work. Skins involving films and games are perfect examples with seeming
Thanks a lot for clearer up what was in the end a very simple question. Some new terminology to use now
Please excuse my ignorance but what's an 'addy' ?
Hi, How do you add a link to another website when uploading work? Is it just a case of typing in the URL in the description and it gets shown (picture of globe - link) automatically or does something special need to be done? Thanks in advance
Thanks alot for your guys help but I have to admit I've cheated somewhat. I've incorporated your ideas and have used them together wth a great application caled Bootskin Buddy. A little bit of fiddling here and there and I can get what I want. Cheers
Don't know if anyone else is getting this problem but here goes: - I keep on getting an 'en' between the password field and 'go' button on the user name frame in the real world which is not happening on the save and apply function. Any ideas on how to get rid of this Thanks
I would like to learn how to do this so if anyone can let me know how to, either by a simple explanation or by providing a relevant link on how to do so, this would be very much appreciated ( oh yeah I don't have PSP or Photoshop ). I have also seen some progress bars with images rather than boring old dots/blocks in them. How is this done?
Thanks anyway
A little late on this one I'm afraid but I don't have either PSP or Photoshop. I've followed many tutorials and looked at all the .ini files from other bootskins but still can't get the damn thing to install into Bootskin. The directory is where it's supposed to be with the .ini file and .bmp and still nothing. Is the file path correct? C:\Program Files\Stardock\WinCustomize\BootSkin\Skins Unfortunately I do not have PSP/Phot
yeah, in #2 I had said widget when I meant to say object. My mistake, sorry. Anyway took the plunge and downloaded an object entitled IE7 and had no probs with it. I guess I just got a bit confused with the title of the object. Thanks for your reply though
Welllike I said, it's just a silly question. IE7 widgets just seem to look better that's all. All I wanted to know is whether they would work or not.
do you have to have IE7 for IE7 dx-objects to work or is having IE6 OK?
Reinstall worked great, thanks. Regarding running gadgets, when downloading I just run it do I? How does the gadget then get saved?
