I am missing a File in the Future X blue SMX theme
Thursday, October 12, 2006 by armaninyc | Discussion: Beginners
If anyone has previously downloaded Future X blue (SMX) and has not had a problem, is it anyway you can e-mail me the file? [email protected]

OK ......i narrowed down the problem to this, I have both future X gold and Future X blue, I have no problem with the gold but it seems that the blue is missing the future X blue preview file.Ive tried downloading it 3 more times, and I get the same results.

If you apply the theme and then save it, you will be creating a new preview. The preview does not effect the theme otherwise.

When I applied the theme and saved it, It came up invisible, and yes I did check the transperency level.

If the theme came up invisible then the preview file is not your problem. There is something else wrong. All the preview does is show a picture of what the theme will look like when you apply it. It doesn't have anything to do with the theme working or not working.
The file that shows the graphics is called "Graphics Back1.png" the base file for that is the white "Future X Blue.bmp" file. Do not change any file in the directory! I checked the comment section in the gallery and it sounds like you may have changed some settings. Open the Sysmetrix configuration window and click on "Theme Settings" on the left. In the right panel make sure "Copy desktop background for psuedo transparency" IS checked. Above that the "Background:" box should point at the "Future X Blue.bmp" file. Then in the "Graphics" Section on the left the "Graphics Back1.png" should show up. Hopefully you've not changed anything else.

OK Lantec tell you what, I have done all of that, and now the SMX comes up completely white, except for the clock. I have completely deleted the file, and even started from scratch, I get the same outcome. Because I want this theme sooooooooo bad, I am willing to do a remote assist somehow.
