The default clock is a skin. Right click on it, and choose 'Sysmetrix Configuration'. Once the window is open, make sure under the 'configuration options' you have the 'theme browser' selected. You should see on the right a list of available themes. Choose one and click 'load'. Edit: Actually, I'm not finding a SMX for Lethal Industry... You sure it's a SMX you downloaded?

Looking at the buttons, I'd say lose the shadow on them (you cant really see it anyway) and decrease the distance you have between them by a couple pixels. What I did was make ita 1px gap on the left and a 2px gap on the right of the button in each frame. That solves the issue of the icon sitting right on the gold bar. When you put it in, set your painting margins to 10, 6, 14, 14 ... and your text margins to 11, 8, 0, 0. That centers the icons as much as possible. Your bu

Have you tried to set the button to tile horizontally rather than stretch? You'll probably have to play with the painting margins a bit to get it to look right. Make it look right on the buttons with the text first, then change over to the icons only buttons and see what it looks like. Pinned buttons only show on mouseover and pressed, nothing you can do to change that. Edit: After looking at the screenshot more, I see what you mean...stretched vertically, n

Yup. having the button off center in the frame is the problem. Just shift them over to the middle of each frame and you should be fine. I've never used the frame builder, so I have no clue what it does, but once you have the finished button in a .png strip, just open it in PS and move all the buttons over at the same time, that way you don't mess up the spacing.

[quote who="PoSmedley" reply="288" id="3088670"]I have too many damn versions of the buttons files as well[/quote] Not sure if you know this or not... If you have too many of them in SKS, all you need to do is 'clean the skin' and it will remove any images that are not being used and dump them in the back up folder. At the top of SKS : Tools/Clean Skin I do this several times during construction, just to make it easier to find what I'm actually using.

I think you may be looking for this: Edit Explorer & IE Shell Parts/Edit Vista & 7 Explorer Parts/Folders Bar. In the Extra Settings Tab you will see 'Background Color (Win7)'. Note: you must have an image in this section, even though you don't see the folders bar in Windows7, for this setting to work.
