After a little correspondance with Vampothica recently, I noticed that some of the files in a couple of the skins have duplicated extensions - eg combobox.tga.tga.tga.tga.TGA Can anyone else who uses SkinStudio - particularly if you use it to import/convert graphics - check whether they have the same issue? (I don't use it.) Thanks.

Looks like moderation for uploads is a bit lower priority now. Hoping to see a WB skin I uploaded on Monday soon...
Since dinosaurs roamed the earth. Last century. A long time ago.
Ah - ok.. Right - got it. It's the 'Blend' option I was looking for! Thanks for that [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]
Hi Dani.. Good to see you ;) hope you are doing ok. Thanks for that info. I noticed, and I've used, the Advanced sections - pretty used to those from WB. I will keep tweaking and see whether I can fix it. It might be useful if there was a list of valid parameters for each section..??
Correct me if I'm wrong.. Curtains doesn't support transparency for the Start Menu or vertical taskbar? Just the horizontal taskbar and frame top? Thanks..
Hi Sean, this is in two of my skins where the button backgrounds are 'full size' (ie no space around the images) - Fathom, and Calm... Thanks
[quote who="adni18" reply="2" id="3818601"] How about the position of the buttons in pixels from the top edge? [/quote] Is that a request for a new setting for that, or is that an existing setting I've missed?
Just wondered if anyone can tell me why there is a 1px gap between the top of the button background and the top of the frame, when I'm expecting the button background to fill the whole area (ie it doesn't have any gaps in the image). I would expect the button bacground would be stretched to fill the frame top completely - seems to fill to the L and R and bottom edges ok. Have I missed a setting or this a bug? Or is there an extra 1px edge around the frame top? [e digicons]:rolleyes:[/e]  
skinz.org ... started there for me
Chucked a couple of new ones in there too this week [e digicons]^_^[/e]
Oooh I do be liking those...[e digicons]:drool:[/e]
So 8 out of 9 skins on the WindowBlinds gallery home page are Master Skins. It makes me beg the question: is this slowly killing WindowBlinds? No disrespect to those designing and selling them - I've done it myself in the past. I know how much effort it takes. Maybe designers could do two releases - 'lite skin' and 'full featured skin' (not really thought what those would constitute of). At least people would get a taste of the design and it might stimulate downloads of the fu
Thanks for that Neil. No worries. Though it was something I'd missed.
Just been playing with Curtains theming and unsure how much control there is over desktop colours. Eg.. The colour of a selected block of text in Notepad, the menu item highlight.. Is there an area where this can be set, or is it controlled by Windows itself? (I know this can be done in WB.) Thanks.
I agree that I have this error in Chrome and Brave.. and for a long time. Seems random, definitely not a specific website. It's as simple as hitting a download button, getting the 'save as' dialog, then the buttons are unresponsive so the dialog is stuck (even happened on Wincusto, but not every time). But try using alt-tab to switch to a different application, then alt-tab back to Chrome/Brave (ie alt-tab twice), and the 'save as' dialog buttons return to being responsive. Saves you
Excellent. Many thanks. They will be reuploaded gradually over the next few weeks.
Thanks - found them fine. I've downloaded them now but I can't delete them as they aren't listed in 'my skin list' (maybe because they are listed as 'Essorant' author?). Could you re-delete them now please?
Oh - if that's easier to put them on the retiredmaster profile.. Whichever is easier for you. Thanks.
Thanks Sir Jafo . I was thinking of giving them a once-over before adding them, so if you could send them to me first? That would be fantastic. I can let you know my email address.
Hi, If anyone has WBA or Zips for the following skins I'd very much appreciate if you could let me have copies to tweak for re-uploading. Although I still have some of the original PSD files I have lost the skins themselves and it would save tons of time if I could get them back. Thank you..

I'm liking Curtains up to now. Kinda WB-lite. I was feeling like skinning full WB had become a bit of a monster. Also feel a little UI performance boost, Curtains vs WB? My question is, is there any likelihood of UI buttons being skinnable? (The elements that made the character of a skin to me were always window frame, titlebar buttons and UI buttons. ) No problem if not, just curious. Nice job Neil

Ok, I decided to change my icon pack today and ran IconPackager. After applying the icons I continued working, but some icons hadn't changed correctly. I'd had that before on Win7 and usually they were fine after a reboot. So I rebooted. And hit a bootloop. This was looping after the windows logo screen, at the logon UI screen, where the screen colour matches whatever the wallpaper colour is and the little dots are circling round, just prior to where the login screen appears.<
