The black color can't be exactly 0,0,0 (RGB). Lighten it a bit, ie. to 6,6,6 or similar. In Photoshop you can quickly do this in Selective Color (Image, Adjustments), select black and take some color out or hit ctrl+m and pull the curves a bit.

Ah I mis-read it Well, you'll need an UIFILE for that. You can take an existing skin that has those and see how it's done. You'll need to edit the code to change the colors and font. The UIFILEs are text files with code in it, you can edit them in notepad. Here's a small list: Inspirat: http

And a unit converter widget. From miles to kilometers, inches to centimeters, centegrade to fahrenheit, feet to meters etc. for anything that's worth converting. I'm thinking 2 input fields and a go button, depending on the input field, the result shows in the other.

I'd love to see this...... the existing FTP widget doesn't work for me. It goes through all the motions, but the upload never appears in the destination folder. It actually does that here too, another reason to have one that's functional <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Wink.gif" border=0

Did you upgrade from the free version to the enhanced, without uninstalling the free version first? Try and uninstall, clean the registry, restart and install it again.

1. A widget that utilizes some translation site, so you have an input field with the text you want to translate and another one with the translated text. As many languages as possible. 2. A widget with an input text field that hooks into the Narrator thing in XP to have text read to visually impared people. 3. I know there is one already, but I'd like a simpler FTP drop widget, where I select a folder on my website I can drop temp fil

Since you're not using the classic start menu, everything is just fine. Icons do get applied to the regular start menu, just not the classic. In Taskbar and Start Menu Properties, you can choose to use the classic start menu. This is what the message is referring to.

As a younger kid I had a thing for pirates, was fascinated by the myths and adventures of the life of a pirate, at one point all I wanted to play with was my LEGO pirates. Now it's Sid Meier's Pirates I got a little older and the interest for graphic design showed up, I stumpled across the expression pixel pirate in a movie or TV show and kinda made it my own,

You can also hold ctrl and hit tab to browse through the tabs. I really like the drag n drop you can do on links. If you click and hold a link and drag it a little to either side and release it, the link will open in a new tab. You could also hold shift down and click a link, same result.

Just like anything else you download from this site, you need the corresponding piece of software. In this case you need BootSkin available here: https://www.stardock.com/products/bootskin/ You apply a new bootskin with this app, and you revert to the standard Microsoft one as well.

I got it and deleted your mail before replying, so I'll just do that here. I think what's wrong are your images proportions. Each image have to be a specific size. I suggest you see what the sizes are in an already existing skin and work from that. You can also see which images are supposed to be what part of the skin. A perfect one to look at would be this: https://www.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SID=1&SkinID=3675&LibID=26
