/me hopes that the new proposals for 3 message boards will not distract from my proposal for an Experimental section. And yes, I am in favour of a skinning message board (like I said before), but only in addition to the Experimental section. What is the opinion of the admins about the proposal or is the Skinning message board used instead of the idea? [Message Edited]

I think the 3 message boards are a very good idea, but I don't think the Skinning message board will be the only solution for skinners. It should be an aid that IMHO should be used next to my earlier proposal that you can fiend here here: https://www.wincustomize.com/msgboard.asp?id=148503&BID=WC&page=1#toppage The start of the thread contains the reason for the proposal. In that thread see post #44 for a detailed description. [Message Edited]

Let's make it personal. I am a member of that community. I have something agains people who have a homophopbia, have ultra right extreme views and also happend to have a naive view of the world. If that is having a superior opinion then you are right.

Reply to RE: Help with my scrollbar in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

If the scroll bars don't skin and you have bought ObjectDesktop then uninstall WBlinds first. Reboot. Then reinstall WBlinds using StardockCentral (SDC). Reboot and it should work. If you already installed ObjectDesktop then check the WindowBlinds configuration. You may have disabled scrollbar skinning. Also, some scroll bars (even those of some MS programs) cannot be skinned, because they are drawn by the program and do not use standard scroll bars.

BTW: It looks like future versions of WA3 will use the WA2 IPC API. That means WBAmp and DXPlayer will be compatible with WA3 when such a version will be released at the end of the summer or sometime later. It looks like this is good news for plugins like WBAmp and DXPlayer. However, we have to wait a while and see what happens. [Message Edited]

Sorry. Currently no support for WA3 and WMP has been planned. If you want support for WA3 then try this http://www.winamp.com/components3/detail.jhtml?componentId=125421 RM-X should allow you to keep using plugins like WBAmp and DXPlayer. I am not sure it works correctly, because I didn't try it lately.

A weak point is that the plugins are included in the skin itself. That makes it virtually impossible to update plugins. A solution would be to have a central plugin folder, much like DXPLayer, ObjectBar and KeyboardLaunchPad. If WB did have such a folder then CClock could be updated and all skins would be fixed. But I don't see that happen anytime soon.

It seems that WindowBlinds 4 did break the code of these plugins. I have reported the bugs and I hope that this bug will be fixed soon. It seems to happen with any version of CClock and WBAmp (past and present). At the moment there is nothing we can do but wait until a fix arrives. Thanks for the report.

Let's explain it a bit more. The Skinning message board (as suggested by Koasati) should be in combination with a library section that works much like regular sections. There should be a large and a small preview (much like the ScreenShot section, so you can show what is going on, a ZIP upload/download facility (which contains the current update), and a comments section (to exchange ideas). That comments section is in fact a single threaded message board. Just like the other skin libraries have.

The message board may be down, but IRC is up Do not expect immediate response, because we may be busy. If the IRC server gets too crowded I may have to limit the maximum number of connections.
