Ok first off thank you very much to the ones that understood where I was coming from. Now yes this is my first window blinds theme, but I have been building themes for years on vistastyle builder so I know my graphics are up to par and encourage criticism but not straight up bashing. How you word something is everything and when using bold font to comment on something especially worded incorrect one takes this as a direct insult. I also know there are the "Masterbuilders" here but this is jus

I did try 10 in the preview beta version but once it came out and figured out you needed another program to fix the start menu back to a great working version plus all the other bugs. I figured I will not update until forced by windows to do so. The misses enjoy 10 but I figure if it i

[quote who="Gaspershooters" reply="62" id="3761945"] nofx1994,wow. That's really a nice skin if the weather icon does match entire suite that would be better. [/quote]Thank you.

I am trying to locate the address font color, header font color in explorer, and the actual font for the programs list in the start menu. I am trying to get all my fonts the way I want them before I continue. Thank you for any help
Here is my screenshot. It is my first theme for windowblinds and it has been a slow moving. I have yet to find some fonts for the explorer windows or the white line, but it's a learning process for sure.
[quote who="DaveRI" reply="21" id="3760759"] Not sure exactly what would cause that, but: Do you have an image defined in Edit Explorer parts \ Explorer and IE \ Explorer windows \ Glassy Areas \ Top glass area? and What do you have the OS Caption Height set at? (Titlebars and Window Frames \ Edit per pixel frames \ Borders \ Caption [Extra Settings]tab / OS Caption Height) I've never understood exactly how the "correct" number is determined, but it
Any of you older builders have any suggestions?
well got most of it mocked up but still needs quite a bit of work with the margins and such but still that damn top haha
here is from photoshop
I figured instead of starting a new thread I would just continue with this one. Here is my newest set of issues. I have started on my frames but seems to be an issue with size maybe not really sure, but you will see in the two screens one has the address bar and one does not. I have tried resizing several times but not sure if there is a size restriction that I am unaware of. <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/25/54/2554412/2285719b-2795-4c72-a88d-45388168a870.png" width="2560" height="
thank you all for the input but I went another way about it and made a background for the start button that got me where I wanted to be and got it to move like it is opening when clicked.
[quote who="LightStar" reply="9" id="3742708"] Keep in mind though, if you add transparent pixels to the right side of the start button to increase the distance to the first taskbar button, you will affect the position of the start button on the vertical taskbars too. Fantastic looking skin too! [e digicons]:)[/e] [/quote] Thank you LightStar but it has quite a bit more to go before I would call it a skin right now it is just an i
The taskbar buttons I have not gotten to yet so they are still what is used on the starter theme, but wanted to get all the bugs worked out as I go along (sorry that is force of habit in building for me).
[quote who="DaveBax" reply="6" id="3742704"] What is the actual size of your start button. in px. Length/width. Also the size of your taskbar buttons. Also the SB should have 5 btns on it and Taskbar button should have 6 buttons on it. It shouldn't look like it shows on your image. [/quote] I am using 3 because that is how I have always done it but guess with blinds it needs to be more? <img src="https://cdn.stardock.us/forums/25/54/2554412/2e9581da-
Thank you I will try this and hopefully it moves them to where I need them to be, and yes the brown is the taskbar and the start button is just a round start button.
Uvah it is actually my first windowblind theme I am working on, but it is a huge learning curve for me with how the program is setup.
Here it is without the buttons
I have looked everywhere I could think these margins are, but can not seem to locate the right area and need some help please. thank you
[quote who="Daiwa" reply="5" id="3686799"] What happens if you click on the 'View Product Keys' link? Just out of curiosity. SKS is still listed as included free (as a separate download) with the purchase of WB on the Stardock Products page for WB, but I can't find a separate download link on either the WB or SKS product pages. FWIW, the SKS product page doesn't appear to have been updated since Win8. [/quote] It just show
Thank you both. I have already contacted support about the matter and just waiting on a response.
