I agree with Froggy. Combos are a pain to skin with WB4, especially when you want a rounded button. You can't use a TGA because the border shows through at the ends. I refuse to let my rounded buttons go... I also have a lot of trouble with the text layout in WB4. Layout presets seem to have been dropped in favour of a much more limited, and almost impossible to handle, choice of alignment for each
You can't have any new ones left to call me Paul. I'd just like to say that whoever decided to put so much new stuff into WB4 obviously had no idea how insane it would drive me trying to keep up! I actually spent a matter of hours just trying to get the little '+' and '-' on a treeview to look pixel perfect. I shouldn't be allowed to skin... <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/jokegri
By the way, the image is low quality on purpose. Begone evil rippers.
Just thought some of you might like to know that dinksDX is very near to completion. This is a complete redesign and rebuild of my very first skin, designed to support all the new features of WB4, and with more power besides. If you want a sneak peek, take a look here: http://grayhaze.com/images/dinksDX_inprogress.jpg If I don't release this thing by the end of the week, you all have my permission to point and call me names. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/
I couldn't be bothered to continue past the second section. That's the longest damn test I've ever seen! Does that make me a geek?!
I really think you're blowing this out of all proportion. As someone who takes an abnormal amount of time over getting every detail of a skin to my liking, and having been ripped countless times upon release of my skins, I can understand how you feel to some extent. However, you're reacting like this person ripped your entire skin and the admins are just ignoring it. We're talking about one slightly similar button here.
Okay, I've taken a look now, and I have to agree with Jafo. They are quite similar, but only in the shape of the very ends of the highlight. The so-called ripped image contains a lot more shading and detail. If you look at the ends of the new image, the top and bottom shading curves are about level, while the same shading in your buttons is slightly uneven, looking more tapered toward the top. Hope this makes sense Zodiaq.
Just so long as nobody uses glassy green buttons. They're all mine. Without seeing the images in question yet, I can't comment. It's true that when you have two 'glassy' buttons there are always going to be similarities between them if both artists use a similar technique. Since I released my 'glassy' skin all those months ago I've seen a lot of skins which use a similar technique to the one I did.
Have a good one.
It was actually Amiga 4000s Jafo. It's rather worrying that God has such a bad temper. Chill out God!
Why do you always feel like you have to justify your choice of computer kona? Anyways... I'm living #9 on a daily basis, but I will make it work. I will.
I can't say I've seen any standard Luna skins in different colours, but some may support custom colours with WindowBlinds. The only place I've seen such skins is sites with MSStyle themes. I'm not about to recommend using 'the hack' though, so why not try putting one together yourself? If you've got a Luna skin to start from, it shouldn't be too big a deal to recolour it.
The people that keep posting in this thread saying they want it to die aren't exactly helping. Just let the thread die already! Um... oops.
Thanks folks. I'm 26 today, but don't feel a day over 18! Happy Birthday to you knatzz too!! As for the skin... it's almost here... almost.
Hippy Barthday!!!

I'd agree T-Man, if the comments these people made were actual opinions rather than comments like 'You're an idiot' or 'Screw you guys'. Okay, so the first one is an opinion... I don't see anyone being called a troll here who is only expressing opinions. There are a select few, most of whom have since been exiled, who use this message board as a tool to abuse others without fear of being caught.
Or toes.

That means so much to me Bangkokboy. I've never been told off for my sarcasm before... It wasn't just sarcasm for sarcasm's sake though, but rather my honest appraisal of the situation. All I saw here was very much a kneejerk reaction to something that isn't nearly as controversial or evil as the title of the thread implied. Very Victorian in fact. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/
I started out on the Notepad/Paint route too. I never released anything I did back then though.
Trolls do tend to fit into a very definate mental group, and are usually those who are lonely and who have difficulty communicating with other people in their everyday lives. They tend to hang around message boards and forums randomly insulting and belittling others in an attempt to convince themselves that they have the power to effect an emotional response. I generally feel sorry for these people, and only hope that the point comes in their lives when they stop and realise that there was so mu
And yes, I thought the use of the word 'slut' infinitely more offensive than the image itself. I'd be more concerned with a child coming to this site, seeing your use of that word, and having to explain to them what it meant. So in effect your use of this title only served to contribute toward what you're claiming to be fighting. That's irony.
Somebody already beat me to it by mentioning Britney Spears, but the one lasting impression that this thread left me with earlier was my trying to remember which actress I saw recently at a movie awards ceremony wearing a dress that revealed pretty much the same amount of real flesh as the cartoon girl in that picture is displaying. Had you chosen one of these 'hentai' pictures with cartoon images of obviously underage girls engaging in crude sexual acts, then I could understand
