Thanks IR. :) I dont have internet at home right now, so I may not be able to reply right away, but I'll look into that and see whats up.

By the way, the colors look right in the preview window on SKS6, just not on my screen when I apply them.
Using GIMP. Could you explain what the color management is in photoshop? I can probably translate that info to GIMP if I knew what it does in Photoshop.
I've noticed while I am making this skin that the colors are not right. I am using the graphics right off of my rainy, sysmetrix, etc. and when I apply it, the color is different. It's really important to get the color just right. What are my options? Do I adjust the color of each individual graphic to make it right...or maybe finish the whole blind and the adjust the color in Windowblinds? What do you recommend? I have also noticed that when adjusting the color in Windowblinds

Good luck. I wish you success. I've tried and failed a few times. Hope you make it this time! :CONGRAT:

Happy New Year Weatherbound! (some of us are still awake over here in the eastern time zone) :D
Dreams are what I would want the most. Someday I'll get a new 'puter that can handle Vista and I'll be "dreaming". :D Welcome back and Happy New Year!
I've seen so many posts about how people hate Vista. You say you liked it. How so? What made it better in your opinion?
[quote]A quick fix - change the date for the computer! Go back a day or two... SGT [/quote] This really works. Thanks! In guess we'll have to wait till everybody gets back to work on the 2nd for a real fix on the issue. Happy New Year Everyone!!
Ta Da!! [img]http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/2787/startmenusstz9.jpg[/img] Thanks for the help everybody. There is one last thing before I go to bed. I have a shadow hovering about 10 or 20 pixels off to the right of the satrt menu. It's not showing on this pic because it's right off the Skinstudio preview image. It shows on my desktop though.
Thanks Shelby, I'll do that. :CONGRAT:

Maybe we gotta wait till they come back on the 2nd. X-( I'm losin good skinning time! :SNIFF!:
Arent updates supposed to be automatic or do I gotta go get them every time?
[quote]Just tried to open SKS6, getting message about it has expired, and to update to the final release from with SDC, no update in SDC; I am an Object Desktop subscriber, subby good until Nov 2008. [/quote] Thats exactly what happened, but there was an update to Windowblinds for some reason.[quote]Didn't u buy SKS? Why would it be expired? [/quote] I did buy it and I dont have a clue why it expired.
Thanks I.R. I looked closer at the pieces and found one that was a few pixels off...sigh. Fixed that. Now I got a new problem. I tried to open Skinstudio 6 and it told me my version is expired. I went to stardock and it said I had updates. Downloaded that and it dont work. Whenever I try to open Skinstudio 6, it says its expired and my computer crashes. Rebooted a couple of times. I may have to uninstall Skinstudio and reinstall. Or maybe I'll just install the previous version.
Ok...I'm aggrivated. I have tried and tried to get those stupid pieces to line up right. I made sure I chopped up the image just right. I put them into place and they won't line up. I've been playing with the margins, and stretching and tiling it every which way I can think of. It will not line up!! I simply can't believe it's this hard. I have to be doing something wrong. Something so stupid that I will feel like an idiot when I finally get it right. Any suggestions?
