Mattisyahu1 – there used to be a button called "contacts" that would list the names of people that work or volunteer here. Now it's in the section called "About" over there on the left in the Options box. Give it a read and you'll probably get answers to lots of questions...

There's nothing in the queue... upload it again. With all the new coding for the new site, there could be a glitch now and then until it all gets perfected...
Just had a new one... clicked on a thread and it came up in a 12pt TimesRoman font. Clicked on another thread and it was normal again...
I had that one happen too but I clicked on another thread and it changed back to the skin in my profile.
oops... spoke too soon... it's happened twice today...
I love the rollup feature so much a variation on that comes too mind... Make it reduce the window to a 320x240 thumbnail with the contents still editable in the reduced thumbnail view (in other words, the window contents are also reduced so the whole app fits in the thumbnail, but you could still select and copy text, paste images etc).
That's why I'm a Vagrant... no gender needed...
Another tip... as long as you have SETI green installed on your machine you don't need to edit the graphics path or copy any of the files over. Just leave the sections as they are and the skin will find the buttons in the other directory. You probably don't need to copy the DLL either, just let it all point to the SETI directory... that makes it even easier...
btw - same thing goes for the clock... Plus, if you want the controls to be ON all the time, don't use Button 19 and just delete the "LinkedTo" line from each button and change the "Visibility=40" line to "Visibility=1" ("0" if you want them to show on inactive windows too)
wow... I have this image of T-Man sitting at a dark console all through the night going through thousands of user names trying to guess the gender and fix their titles... amazing... what dedication...
I love having the winamp controls too so most of mine have them (4 out of the last 5). Greenreaper gives you good advice. If you want, you can use the control graphics I made for my skin 'SETI green'. They have a transparent background so they'll be easy to apply to any skin. The only ones that would need modification are the volume buttons - just delete the text at the bottom, it's not all on the button graphic. Just put the same pink over the letters. To add the controls, f
I'll be glad to participate if you need another voice... - if there are donuts...
cool... was happening to me too but hasn't happened since yesterday...
I've seen a preview of the Universe suite and I think it's the best skin suite ever done. It will be well worth the few bucks and the wait.
a huge fuile?? jeesh - I need a new keyboartd
We're getting new uploads so I don't know what could be happening. If it's timing out, are you uploading a huge fuile on a dialup maybe? have you tried at a low traffic time (like right now)? What's happening with deleting skins? (and why would you want to do that?)
Real Life ™ for me is doing commercial art (which is now called computer graphics). I started in it when you worked with pens and knives and hot wax but went digital about eleven years ago. The only part I don't like is now I never have the time to do things I like to do. It's not like I'm making a lot of money either, I work twice as hard as ever before doing freelance (unemployed) work and make about half as much as I need to pay the bills... I'm slipping into financial oblivion... Makin
hehe I guess italics are possible...
Doreen, the site knows it's you, that icon only shows up for you, no one else can see it. Wow! the site seems much faster! I notice a huge improvement in speed... great job!
Probably the newer skins, as they appear, will all be made with the XP bits. If not, there will certainly be more, even most of them that are. So you skip over one skin on the list... it's not an extra step, it's the same as choosing to not download a particular skin because you're not interested in the design.
Why would anyone want to limit themeselves to only XP skins? You can select your favorite XP taskbar stuff to display with any skin and there are hundreds of great windowblinds skins that were made before XP came out (thousands maybe?). Windowblinds works with all versions of Windows. XP is just the latest (and most expensive) version. Having a seperate library is nonsense, it's like saying you don't know how Windowblinds works or what it's for. Don't forget there is also the per app set
The resize bar gets combined into the taskbar which can make for some strange effects. The best way to go is make a stand alone version in Skin Studio. You can open the imported one and add new graphics, change the button's dimensions etc. but you'll get all the WinXP skins stored with it. I had to do this to get an OB skin for SETI green because it didn't import well. After you save the skin as an OBpack you can go in manually and delete all the extraneous stuff and manually rewrite the OB
Here's a good tutorial on what you can do with OB; http://baren.comdotorg.com/objectbar/ I would think you could make that design work but if for any reason it won't it would certainly work as a DesktopX theme.
heh - Vanilla Fudge... I actually liked their version of "You keep me hangin on" all stretched out and slow. Never heard anything else by them but I did hear them play live once. They were really good musicians. I heard their producer took over the band and told them what they would play, how to dress, how to arrange everything. Forced the whole pop thing on them, which is why they broke up. Maybe that's the key... if its phony, doesn't come from your heart, it won't go very far before it just f
why do people always say that? I thought Dylan's voice was incredible, with more range and character than any other singer at that time (except maybe Fred Neil).
