thank you Hankers... I did not know that.
Hello, i just changed my preview for a windowblind skin and now its gone from the windowblinds section is that normal ? i didnt highlighted the show on my personal page checkbox. But it cannot be found on windowblinds section anymore. Or is it just in moderation again to check if the preview is ok ?
Thank you All for commenting and keeping me on track on my first windowblind. Also i would like to thank Uvah for his comments, your comments made me not drop this skin and to continue. Its always helpful to have some experienced people around that comment on your work progress. I have some ideas for future skins but i want to make sure this time that everything i do is also possible -t
I must admit im one of those IE users. I use it as my standard browser- simply because its fast and reliable. And because of one reason, its not stuffed with add-on junk- the only add-ons i use Shockwave Flash, Java runtime plugin, and since IE8 i use Bingbar. That’s it, no searchbars and so on-why ? because you don’t need them and they slow everything down. I have seen many folks open their explorer and half of the monitor is clustered with searchbars we
:D true - its easy with a new computer and you ´need a lot of memory and it must be fast. I do use zbrush a lot of time when iam at home, but all the software costs money aswell... And i think thats some thing the companys dont think about. A product like photoshop for example is powerfull no questions and i bet its worth every penny. Zbrush is the same it is pretty powerfull in function but the price is heavy and if you think about the hardware you need to actually make some
Uploaded the skin today. Thanks for testing @ schleimig and Nemesys.
OK i just reviewed everything and i have everything like i wanted... Im sure there are some buttons unskinned but i think that will be ok.Not because im lazy --- what iam but because i think they flow nicely with the rest. The skin has 2 substyles each is a bit diffrent in its own way you may check them out aswell. Fixed vertikal horizontal taskbars adjusted some colors,bunch of margins and so on and so on. Now i reached the point where i think it is time to let
looks good
@vampothika i took your advice and had a look at the old wba removed everything else and installed it opened skinstudio and replaced the bottom search with my gradient bottom search exact same sizes. Its the same thing there.( I did the normal startmenu and added an extra search bottom picture with a diffrent style so that my gradient with the pictures inside and everything wont just get cut of when opening searchmode.But it seems that search bottom is used also when i hover over the pro
I think that the robot dance would be hard for him since he does not have joints... [e digicons]^_^[/e] But he can lift his arm LOL But doing so will strech everything else. Just wanted to show what i do on work when i get hungry and im bored... Sadly my Pc isnt good enough to render this or animate it, it always runs out of memory at like 6 million poly´s. Its like starting up Fred Flinstones PC when i get home compared to what i have on work. But current
Thanks guys, Danke Onklifiziert, Uvah i just came home i have everything i need so far, im also pretty much finished with everything its only tweaking colors and so on right now and do some small tiny sized buttons. But i must say im really proud of my work so far and i hope that the time i invested into this skin will be noticeable. And i hope you folks will have as much fun with the skin as i had making it.Afterall its intended to be fun. The lastly mentioned
I was a bit bored on work so i made this. While waiting for lunch break. Now gimme your lunch package or you will be terminated... [e digicons]:cylon:[/e]
Thanks Uvah =) I made a view changes since i didnt like the dirt look so much also i would have been quite limited in my options for taskbar and windowframes so i thought i do a bit more industrial theme as 2nd substyle fitting with the colors just a bit brighter i googled a bit and found some stuff but i didnt steal the things i found i spend one complete night to rebuild what i have seen from scratch.with some little modifications...( just if someone askes i have every step as photosh

I will skin everything and change the
Thanks Lightstar for your response i managed to clear my issue [e digicons]:grin:[/e] For anyone interested in the startmenu sizes and gradients that need to be perfect the size for programlist and places list : Programlist windows 7 standart : width is 230 height is 462 Placeslist windows 7 standart: width is 182 height is 497 Adjust them to match your skin ( if you have transparent Starmenu image with a gap beetween the solid background add it to the inside of th
Hi there, Im currently working on my 2nd substyle for a windowblinds And the gradient on the startmenu has to be perfect. And here it starts i ran into some trouble and i tryd hard to solve it before asking even tried using aditional layers but for this special case i need some professional help! I made my 2nd substyle and i thought playing around with margins or aditional layers would help me to get this set correct but my Placeslist is driving me insane. It
If i finished my current project i will look into this - and if i get a permission of using graphical content from Activision Blizzard ( IF ) and thats a big if ! iam willed to fullfill your request.
[quote who="Vampothika" reply="88" id="2903267"] I just hope poeple wont mind that iam not going to skin everything...since i realy love some parts of the diamond skin. I worrie a bit that iam not allowed to upload the skin like this ( since the other parts i didnt lay hand on will remain stardock diamond). So i wonder do i have to write a email to stardock to get a permission ? you should skin everything rolo, people dont like downloading a skin wi
Substyle Silver: Made some changes to taskbar for the normal style and substyle_ i will keep the first with the blue clock addon inside the wba package so people can switch it on if they like. I also contacted Stardock today and asked them if i get a permission now iam waiting and thinking about what i could change for a 2nd subsyte.
@ k10w3 - I will defenetly try that, i just finished all the taskbar explorer frames.And im pretty pleased so far ^^ I just hope poeple wont mind that iam not going to skin everything...since i realy love some parts of the diamond skin. I worrie a bit that iam not allowed to upload the skin like this ( since the other parts i didnt lay hand on will remain stardock diamond). So i wonder do i have to write a email to stardock to get a permission ? As soon as
yeah i know im still in the rookie phase of skinning but with each problem i learn[e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] You should try it also its fun. If i didnt had the cutting mistake i would have saved some days it really screwed everything up. I fixed the white searchfield popup with placeslist text margins. @ Vampothica - fixed it with setting the margins on left for the allprograms button so that it covered the gap beetween the pipe and the blue solid...of course a
Ok i just cutted everything again. now importet it all to skinstudio I feel so dumb, my problem was in the cut... Now i have everything lined up [e digicons]\o/[/e] finall and now the margins start to make sense PS: I also managed to make the searchmode functional [e digicons]\o/[/e] Now i have to figure out why the icons on taskbar ^ Photoshop for example have diffrent color when i r
Well best solution is to get rid of the starter edition An OP that calls itself OS,that doesnt allow you to change your wallpaper!!!!! without adding software that modifies your OP to actually do so-shouldnt be the first choice for a notebook anyway... In the early stage of windows 7 there was a professional ultimate version that you could get for free as student.I dont know if it is still available but you still should get a discount as student on MS products.<
First i want to thank you for looking over my mess ^^ I apllied your skin to see the results. And like always i try to replicate what you have done. The only BAD thing is that i dont get a chance to do so step by step. You said you had to recut the parts for Startmenu. I tryd to make a copy of the files Top places all programs program list bottom and sear top search bottom. But skinstudio just shows me the middelfinger when i press save. It
