Download and use one of chrome's skins. There are many to choose from. surely there must be one that a person will like.
Jimbo sorry. Though thing that cancer. Keep your spirits up best you can it does help. Bless you and I will ask my wife to look down on you for comfort.
[quote who="joeyinpa92" reply="9" id="3752411"] Thank You, Dave* and Chas*! Nice just to hear from You*.... I'm not trying to stir up some kind of "trouble". I'm honestly just frustrated, and BROKE! -Joey* [/quote] No worries Joey. Being low on funds can get to anyone. You just need to regroup and do the best you can. Check your PM.
[quote who="don5318" reply="1" id="3752367"] The sad thing is, there's not enough people interested in skinning; so that there would be more choices between free, and paid, in my opinion, for what it's worth. [/quote] joey: Read that quote as it's 100% correct. I'm a Master and upload free skins because I can. I'm not rich by any means but would rather see many people download then just the few that can afford it. Saying that I haven't uploaded for a few months
[quote who="starkers" reply="15" id="3752097"] I had another fall today, not that I hurt myself, but it took me a good fifteen minutes or so before I could regain my feet. [/quote] Serious. If you have a cell phone, have it with you 100% of the time. You fall and can't get up or pass out for a few hours you can at least call 911 or a friend for help.
[quote who="starkers" reply="9" id="3751892"] I try to keep the forums alive with new posts and a bit of fun, but lately I feel like I'm in a losing battle because there are so few responders. Sadly, the good old days ARE DEAD.... and the new days will be short lived because contributions are dwindling and nobody ['cept me and a few others] give a fech. [/quote] The losing battle you are seeing isn't your fault as you know. YES, the old days are gone. Very few of

[quote who="starkers" reply="5" id="3751755"] Hmmmm, seems not too many are interested in how my luck turned uglier just recently.... [/quote] Not sure that is totally true Mark.

Thank you for all you have done here.
[quote who="Liquidyo" reply="4" id="3751272"] not happening with any stock skins. Also, i added outlook and word to excluded list and does not prevent the issue from happening even after restarting the machine. [/quote] If you install any skin that has a dark Explorer background forget any Microsoft office product. When making a WB if the maker makes the Explorer what ever color it will always control Microsoft. I use Office often and no matter how dark I
[quote who="TheMouseAvenger" reply="4" id="3750731"] If I should, however, what will happen to all of my saved settings for my skin? Will I have to re-add them after reinstallation? [/quote] Not if you make a new Wb in SKS. Make sure you save it somewhere. In SKS at the top just click on "File" Go down and you will see "Make WBA package" Save it. If you want a different file name you can rename it in SKS before you make the new WB.

Why would one want to update when the window version on ones computer doesn't offer it. At least if it was available through
[quote who="Vad_M" reply="22" id="3748462"] I don't remember does SkinStudio adds this line automatically or I've added it manually. However this line is present in the all skins I have on my PC. [/quote] Vad what line you talking about. The one between the left and right side of Explorer window?
[quote who="Vad_M" reply="18" id="3748447"] After that I've tested more than 30 different skins (from different authors) on both Win-7 / Win-10 computers. NO ANY PROBLEMS. All works fine... [/quote] I have to agree with Vad. I explained how I did it. It works fine here even on Tom's skins that I tried. So I give up folks and can't see any reason to change what I'm doing.
[quote who="LightStar" reply="15" id="3748434"] I am using OldNewExplorer too Dave, but I don't see a setting for that, what is it? [/quote] May have said it wrong. No setting in oldnewexplorer. was just saying if one doesn't use it maybe that is why they are not seeing changes. For me it works on all the skins I make at least here.
[quote who="LightStar" reply="11" id="3748426"] All my skins have that image already and the same color set in the extra settings area Vad, it does not fix the issue at all in Windows 10, v1803 and higher. The explorer tree area background is still white. [/quote] Yes Tom I should have mentioned that. However I use oldnewexplorer and it does change using that. Guess most people don't use that so White it is. I have to remember again most people don't use oldnewexplorer

[quote who="Hankers" reply="16" id="3746396"] If you select the Windowblinds tab on the Home page and then select "More" you will get this page which will only list Windowblinds. https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/windowblinds From that page you can select from the dropdown arrow - Last Updated, Most Popular & Recently Featured.

[quote who="Hankers" reply="13" id="3746383"] Excuse me, Dave. Nobody said anything about not liking your comment or that it was BS. What I posted was a means to see what uploads that have moved off the Home Page. [/quote] By no means did I ever mean you said anything about BS. You are a good person and I wouldn't do that. Saying that. All I was saying if there was a 3rd column for WB uploads only you would see them for a week or more. If you have Windowbl
[quote who="Hankers" reply="11" id="3746375"] Quoting DaveBax, reply 6 I have heard this from other people. Actually from people that no longer skin for the reason their things aren't shown in cases for no longer then minutes or an hour. There is a "More" link that will expand the list of "New

I second that [/quote] I have heard this from other people. Actually from people that no longer skin for the reason their things aren't shown in cases for no longer then minutes or an hour. With things that can take several hours to make they should be visible on the main page for at least 24 to 48 hours

Very nice picture. Good for you Paul. When one is as old as we are it's good to stay active. A lesson these younger people should start learning.
