[quote who="LightStar" reply="7" id="3146040"]if you're not doing anything illegal you have nothing to worry about[/quote] It's the pinnacle of hypocrisy to violate the fourth amendment to the constitution in order to nab a criminal. What sort of example is the government setting when it's okay for them to violate their office in order to do their job? This makes them no better than common mobsters!

I hate these threads, Seth, because they make me feel so utterly powerless. Our world is turning into a police state, and there isn't anything a normal person can do to stop it.

Reply to WB Skin. Anomoly, Design, or Computer. in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Vampothika is right -- I skin for Windows 7 (the only OS I own), so I was not able to test how it would perform on Vista. You might want to try opening the skin in SkinStudio and adjusting the left margin of the Start Menu Popup Menu-->Background and/or Menu Item and see if that fixes it.

Reply to Animated frames? in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Thanks, guys. I know it's a pain in the rear, John, and I may end up just scraping it all together, but I've come to a point in my skinning journey where the rush to finish is gone and I just want to see what's possible...see what I'm capable of.

Animated frames? in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I know in the past it was possible to make animated Windowframes (AVman did it--I can't remember which skin, though); I've been trying this now and it just turned into a mess. Is this still possible or when SkinStudio went in the direction of using layers, was the animation ability destroyed?

It might have something to do with the painting margins or something with the "Glassy Areas" (Edit Explorer/IE Shell parts-->Glassy areas-->Top glass area). There's a note there at the bottom that says "also used for totally glass windows with bottom 2 pixels clipped. You can also access this area from the Per Pixel Windows section in SkinStudio.

It looks outstanding! I must applaud the ease with which you're picking Carrara 8 up. It totally intimidates me--I think it would be easier for me to perform surgery on myself than to create something in that program.

*tears in my eyes* Andy, you know I've always felt you were amazing. You are ALWAYS pushing the envelope (no, wait, you are always blowing the shit out of the edges of the envelope) where Windowblinds and SkinStudio are concerned. I know we've spoken of this before, that you've aligned yourself here with the WinCustomize version of the Breakfast Club. The fact that you haven't even been promoted to Apprentice yet, speaks to the fact that there are some

Y'all are kinda being hypocrites. You're all "oh, you're poisoning your body with energy drinks" but nobody here is a purist when it comes to what they consume. You'll drink beer, eat beef, some of you smoke. All things in moderation. "Slow down...take it easy..." - you don't get ahead in business that way. Quicker, faster, more efficient, THAT'S what gets rewarded. I'll admit it -- I'll drink an occasional energy
