object bar troubles

from WinCustomize Forums
Well, I finally broke down and decided to try object bar and I noticed that the two WB skins that have XP features don't convert to OB very well. I've seen other skins that work perfectly well so I know it has to be my skins that are the problem and not the program.

The problem is that after I made some changes, I can't get it to load into object bar. It keeps loading the same images and code as before. After several reboots I even ended up un-installing and re-installing OB, but still have the same problem, except now it won't even load in the xp features of that skin at all, it just loads in the default win xp theme. But it still converts other WB3 win xp skins just fine. I've looked at the code in other skins and compared it to mine and still can't seem to find the problem.

Can ANYONE help me at all??
Pretty please?
With a cherry on top?


And if you're really nice I might even throw in some whipped cream..hehe

what's it doing Sylva? One of mine (Seti green) had problems with the auto OB thing so I made a stand alone skin. The problem was with the taskbar graphics and I found an easy way to fix it on my machine but it was too complicated to suggest for everyone else. So maybe your problem would be easy to fix too. Can you post a screenshot of it?

The main problem is that a few images just didn't look right, and since I didn't have a way to check them on my own I had to trust what other people said. Right now I mostly need to find a way to get OB to actually "re-load" the images and code. It doesn't seem to want to update it's own conversion of the WB skin.

What skin of yours is it doing this with? I'll try loading it here and see if there's an easy way to get it to display right...

It's Rebirth.
I got the graphics to refresh finally. There is a folder in the skins directory under the windows xp theme section. I just deleted it and reloaded the WB skin and was able to see the updates I made to it.

Thanks for offering though David *s*
