Thanks V, I'm sure I'll have more questions later. I've been playing around with SkinStudio 6 for a little while. My first start panel looks like crap. :LOL: Have to start again...

Thanks Guys!! Thats exactly what I needed to know! :CONGRAT:
I just started to follow a tut in the WinC Wiki about making a start menu. It says to create an image of the start menu and then divide it up into 5 pieces. The pic there shows guide lines that divide it into 8 pieces. The explaination of what the pieces are is not very clear. [img]http://wiki.wincustomize.com/images/6/68/SK-sptut-image3.jpg[/img] How should I divide it? When I create images from the pieces, should the canvas size be only the size of the piece or should it be the size on
Just thought I'd add that I am having the same trouble. I notified Stardock of the issue.
If you do decide to make a black shiney one, how about pairing that up with a soothing color like Windowboxx. I have that blind, and I put black icons with it. It looks great! Mixing the black shiney things and the muted soothing colors would be awesome. :D
Your best bet would be to get different icons. The ones on your desktop are probably too small. Head on over to the Objectdock gallery and see what you can get! :D [link="https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?libid=29"]WWW Link[/link]
I looked at your profile...it shows you are a visitor with 2mb downloaded. So you didn't reach your max downloads yet. :D
Easy there. Someone with more knowledge than I will come along to help. They always do. Please be patient. What are you trying to download?
[quote]I'm just getting around to trying my first Xion skin. I tried icons one time....thought I might better start with something a bit easier. So Xion it is. I'm trying to learn GIMP...can't afford those "fancy" graphics proggies right now. [/quote] That's all I use. I cant afford the fancy ones either. Looking forward to the Xion you're making!
Happy Birthday Philly!!! :D
[quote]Quitting smoking would be nice too...but I'm realistic. [/quote] Ditto. Mine is to learn as much as I can, and to exercise more. :)
[quote]BTW.... Coffee will be on at 6am est. so come on over and have a cup! [/quote] You won't get me out of bed THAT early, even for coffee! Merry Christmas theAVMAN!
aaawww, you beat me to it!
If you are just changing the icon to a new one, just right click on the icon. A menu will pop up, go down to "Dock Entry Properties" at the bottom. That will bring up a window, choose "change image" and brouse to where you have the image stored. Is that what you needed?
Thank you, Frogboy!! Merry Christmas to you and yours too! :D
Welcome to WinCustomize, deMoonN !!! You're gonna love it here. :D Merry Christmas too!
Look at the bright side (if you can), at least it didn't happen on Christmas Day! Hope you feel better soon. Merry Christmas!
[quote]OK, published [/quote] and downloaded!! Thanks, Alperium! :CONGRAT:
[quote]Not sure 3 days is enough time. I got my ODNT over Thanksgiving. Had 5 days to play, and I'm still acting like a kid with a new toy..... and now there's CFX to play with? Oh geez! [/quote] I'm sure it'll take a while to explore everything. I probably won't have time to start a skin this weekend, but I'll be having fun anyway!
:LOL: Me too! There is not enough time in the day for all I want to do. I'm usually up till the wee hours of the morning playing on the computer. My hubby scolds me every now and then about how I need my beauty sleep...I just smile and keep playing. ;)
I really thought I had a bug on my screen there for a sec. :LOL:
Thats the hard part...I want to do it ALL!! I think I will try Windowblinds first. I want to make a blind to go with my Talc stuff. I'm planning on looking into Iconpackager tonight, just to see what it does and how it's all set up. I still need to organize my docks too. I installed Plus last night too, and I have not had any time to fix it up real pretty. :D
Well.....I'm gonna go see my family on Christmas, so I guess I'll have 2 1/2 days.
Just a couple more hours to go and I'll have 3 days in a row to play!! :CONGRAT:
Shame on me for goofing off at work? or shame that I cant play all day? :LOL:
