Yeah netbooks are great! loving my EeePC 904HD.... One thing ID that put me of the Acer ONE was the really crappy battery life and its really hard to upgrade the ram in it... or not hard but alot of work taking apart the whole thing... whats your feelings on this? as a One user... and also the wierd placement and feel of the left/right "mousebuttons"...
nite all, time to snuggle up with the wife :)
If you have CS4 use the 3D menu sphere primitive to get 3 point lighting.
makes me think of the Ultima games :D
[quote]So i simply want to create the images at the exact size that they would display on screen when used and center them so theres no stretching, margins, etc. to worry about. I would REALLY love it if Skinstudio wouldnt require that a single panel consist of seperate iamges being imported. I dont know why on earth the designers of Skinstudio decided to make it like that. I wish I could just create ONE image of say, the entire start panel and import that ONE image. Hopefully a newer version
Looking really good! i second another startbutton to match the startpanel :)
Anytime....glad it worked out [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] ....and ill check it out :)
Haha im speedy! ;)
Welcome to the fray! Ok here is what you do :D 1.When you have your pieces sliced and done import them into SKS in their respective places 2.Go to the Extra tab and put in the size of the slice in XP and VISTA (you find these numbers at the right side of the import button) 3. Margins i usually put true size no margins on top and bottom more programs pieces as they should not stretch. but left and right side of start menu adjust margins so it looks good
The colors (not all textcolors) and toolbar background and windowframe, menus is skinned by WB.. icons and such you will have to get Firefox themes for. And you can check if you have excluded firefox in WB config. Else try reapply blind.... You can also post a screenie.....
It must be something with WB Config as it affects all skins.. and thats how it looks when blur is used instead of semi transparency in Skinstudio... you get that grey.... Check your settings again in the blur transparency tab... else try a reinstall :)

Zbrush is a 3d sculpt app (or paint in 3d) the models made cant be animated or rather they can but you will not have it as good looking as in zbrush need todo a low poly for animation.... zbrush seems very similar to Autodesk Mudbox..
Photoshop CS4 with pixelgrid
Sure but it would be great if a list of shortcomings where available so you can plan skinnning after that, as a new skinner info like "Buttonface color shines thru on pushbuttons where there is alpha in vista" And "Folderbar text in vista explorer is hardcoded" or "calculator button color is hardcoded in red and blue" as is "Favorite bar text in firefox are hardcoded black" would save alot of headache, tears, suicides and broken keyboards...

JMB1984 this app is great and if you make it one free version and a plus version with extra feats.. you deserve each coin you get! I think its a great idea. I really think this is a app that should be a standard in every os with icons and a desktop.. but also its pretty much only for organizing and hiding.. so put a small pricetag on the plus version and make everyone use it... instead of high and fewer users and branded as a novelty product.. it will deserve all the attention it will

[quote]I have confirmed it is a Vista wb bug. only classic buttonface will show around buttons.[/quote] I thought you knew this already, its been around since the beginning of vista blinds :) I wonder what the problem is? why it isnt as in XP.... any WB/SKS developer that can answer this? [quote]I am almost done, I think, with the vista skin. Now I have to go back to my XP version and make changes there...so that both blinds look sorta alike...lol.[/quote] Heh
If i remember correctly thats a vista bug thing try to make the buttons with as little borders as possible, or try to make as square buttons as possible to hide it. That you dont see it in other places in the skin is probably because they are on a light background about the same White color as around the buttons....

In sks startpanel top part there are the text option and you can change where the text is displayed (text horz and vert offset) in the extra tab check that... i often set it to 3000 to get the text away as i think it more often than not messes with the design :)
