[quote who="Wizard1956" reply="25" id="2972455"]Open Impulse (if you still have it) and go to your software tab. Right click on WB7 while holding down shift and select Verify Installation. If WB is not installed correctly, reinstall it from your registrations page. (it won't update through Impulse.) If it IS installed correctly, have you recently updated Winstep?[/quote] That fixed it! And it did update right from Impulse.

I just sent a PM to JC, maybe he can shed some light on this. I am wondering where that font color is getting pulled from because it's doing that on my WIP too, and I want to fix it if I can. Edit: Jim just tried on my new skin, and is not seeing this issue....so, what is causing it? I have never deleted any fonts from my PC.

It does this on all the blinds in my inventory except the Aero ones, which is why I was thinking it was a Winstep issue. (shrugs)

what is that menu from? what program? I have seen something similar in windows 7 while going through the Winstep configuration menus. Edit: that IS a winstep menu, lol. I get the same thing there. I think it might be a winstep issue. Have you seen it anywhere else?

For the unskinnable menus in PS, you will need to set those colors in the colors section. They are going to be the Menu, Menu Text, Menubar and Menu Highlight colors. Just set them to colors that are really close to the colors you used in the skinned menus. As far as your buttons go, I think I would need to see what you did in order to find out what is going on there. If you are willing, you can send me the blind and I will look it over and let you know here what the solution is. Do y

Well, in IE8, the favorites menu background and mouseover will not skin, but the other menus should (like when you click on 'file' in the toolbar). You menus in explorer should be skinning. Check in the extras tab for those menus and see if the "use flat menus" option is enabled. If it is, disable it.

OK, I got the lowdown on what has been going on. I'm not sure Larry would want any of it posted here, so I'll just say this. The doctors ran a bunch of tests. The CAT scan turned up something, and they want him to get a MRI to determine what it is. The problem is that he has no insurance, and the MRI costs a couple thousand to do. He has to wait until he hears whether his medicaid application is approved before he can move forward with that. They also found blockage in

I heard he was home again last night, with new meds. That's all I know so far. I just got home from work and I'm waiting for him to get on Skype and tell me what happened.

Does it really have to be that many frames? Does it have a repeating pattern on it or a pattern that is different on all sides (like the earth for example)? If the pattern repeats, you might be able to get away with a lot fewer frames...

On a side note, but somewhat related. If you are using Firefox and think that the toolbars are ugly with a particular skin, you can use the Personas add on to completely change the way they look. There are a few really good ones out there. The cool thing is that you can just mouseover a Persona to see what it would look like before you even apply it. Find them here: http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/ Obviously, if your skinn

[quote who="MallyMcGinnis" reply="218" id="2969530"]2. The plus sign correctly displays the color for all states except mouseover, and pressed. I briefly used the grey in the minus box for the disabled state, but changed my mind. However, it is still displayed on all disabled state buttons I've found (including those in Photoshop), and as noted above. They grey is fine on the disabled state buttons, but not on the Firefox bookmarks toolbar. The grey color is nowhere in my chosen color sta

[quote who="Vampothika" reply="215" id="2969469"]You need to skin ALL of those button [/quote] No you don't. Your buttons determine which ones you need to skin. If they are standard buttons, with no frills or really rounded corners, the split buttons and dropdown buttons will use the Button image. And if you follow the screeny I put up there for the button text colors, it will be fine. It's when you have fancy buttons, that skinning the Split and Dropdown buttons becomes neces

The toolbar style menubar buttons and the places button are mislabled in SKS. They are in the order that I put in this screeny. The coders for SKS could easily fix it by just changing the labels in the dropdown, not their function, just the labels, but it's been this way since I started skinning blinds.
