Reply to Corrupted Menus in Windows Mail in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

Could well be that CerebroJD.I'll keep an eye on it and if it re-occurs I'll post here again. Actually when it was happening I wasn't getting the nice blue mouse over effects(with Adamant) in the menus,whereas I am now so yes,maybe a corrupted skin install.I was messing around with a new anti virus program around that time,so maybe that. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Smile.gif" border=0 ali

Well..... the plot thickens I uninstalled Adamant and Adrenaline then re-installed and viola...no more hairy menus.Most peculiar. I'm installing Windows Live Mail to replace Windows Mail now so I'll see what happens to that.Thanks guys.

Hi there CerebroJD,thanks for dropping by. Unfortunately my technical expertise doesn't stretch that far but thanks for the suggestion.TBH a system restore shouldn't be too drastic as it's a new pc and I hardly have anything on it yet,apart from BitDefender 2008 which I bought yesterday. Hey at least it's unique,I bet no one else has hairy menus. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Ew.gif" borde

Fair enough, but you can keep that Shane Warne I can't believe you said that ,he's probably the greatest bowler ever to play the game,and I'm an Englishman! Any Aussies I have ever spoken to think he is an absolute legend too. And yes Valhalla the rugby was fantastic. Swing low,sw

Hi,I am using the latest WindowBlinds with Vista Home Premium and I am having a problem with the menus in Windows mail.They have lines on them which disappear as I mouse over them but reappear straight afterwards.It happens with the Adamant and Classic skins by Stardock Design and Adrenaline by PixelPirate loaded but stops happening if I reload Vista's native skin or Optix,Diamond,Leo etc.. Here are some screenies: <img src="http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o312/bobbyhundreds/333.jpg"/

I don't read his posts as being unfair. Just that Stardock (and the skinners they've hired) are killing thier base of users by only having the great skins for pay. Fair point Zubaz,I get your drift and I have to agree with you that it is not killing the user base.There are too many up and coming skinners for that to happen.

maybe it's just temporary but right now all of the latest and greatest skins in my opinion are the master skins. There are some really good alternatives, but the master stuff has more appeal to me. As I said (and you too),it's clearly down to personal preference,just because you don't like a skin doesn't mean it is substandard or not as good as the old days,it just means that YOU don't like it. So are you saying that the none master skinners skins j

Jeffrey,just because you don't like this skin as much as previous offerings doesn't mean it is of a lesser standard than them.Surely it just shows that it's down to personal taste and that we all like different styles of skins. since I can no longer have the latest and greatest skins without paying additional fees You're kidding right?
