well, that didn't take long. tutorials indicate they are for SKS5... tutorials are from WC including comments from WC customers, so I guess you're a part of SD otherwise it might be inappropriate to hijack comments, without permission. you need to check this link, honest Buttons Glows in SkinStudio by NWD and you were saying?

so I guess it is a commercial site that is using pre-existing (and a little new) work to attract users(?). it's not really a mirror site but a take off of WC and is looking to use an unoriginal idea(s) to gain advertising share. (just stating the obvious right?) I think (therefore I'm screwed) that I get all of that here but without the ads. I will look at the tutorials to see if there is anything new, but... good luck with your financial endevor. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]</p

[quote]Are you sure you don't have CCleaner set to clean those files?

I used the ccleaner program and found out something interesting (at least I think so). I maintained some webcookies and deleted everything else. figurering that this effected my browsers only, wrong!!! seems that office07 (in vista) also uses cookies to identify the recently opened files. opened up excel and there were no recently opened files listed.

thanks Wiz, I don't have that many sites that I allow to maintain cookies but it was surprising how many cookies were there from sites that I visit regularly. I need to check my security settings. I thought I have blocked all cookies with a few exceptions???

dang, I must have thousands of cookies and a majority of them are from wc. I'm gonna follow the advice and delete all cookies, start from scratch.

Reply to Trouble in SKS6 and/or WB in Customization Software WinCustomize Forums

sorry, really don't know then but I would fathom a question. are you using the gui or the code editor? might have some luck with the code editor??? if you don't have the code editor you should be able to open the code file with any text editor to edit. I don't remember the name of the file. good luck, I know how frustrating it can get.

clearing cookies enmass will require you to repopulate/restablish those sites that one wants to have cookie permissions, best to attempt to find the wc cookies and delete those only. I'm now having this problem and has since just occurred with my recent promotion.

it's been awhile but if I remember corectly the caption height has nothing to do with the roll-up. the roll-up is controlled by the left/right frame sections (verticle values). if your top value is 30 and the bottom value is 10 then your roll-up value would a minimum of 40. I can't remember if I had to add a few more increments to the roll-up or not to get it looking like I wanted it. you're probably getting a missing section when you roll-up???

Zubaz, you do realize that you're providing free marketing data to these stores. I do the same thing, don't get me wrong, but I don't think they are doing this to better serve us. I don't think their motives are altruistic or with you in mind. you're just a number to them that they can apply data to. how better to part you from your money.
