Windowsblind/Firefox theme clash

Sunday, December 17, 2006 by blackwizard00 | Discussion: WindowBlinds

I have AlienGUIse running on my laptop (xp pro), its really WindowsBlinds with a different name, i think. Basically i was wondering if it was possible to stop it skinning the status bar on firefox. When i have my alienguise and firefox theme on at the same time the firefox theme covers all of firefox except the status bar and alienguise makes thestatus bar gray. Ends up really ugly.

Solved my status bar problem! Kinda. I found this file which is my windowsblind themes version of the status bar and just painted it black. Its not d nice web effect that it should be but it a hell of a lot better than gray.

C:\Program Files\AlienGUIse\Alienware XenoMorph\Status.bmp

D only problem is that it changes d status bar for every program that uses the standard status bar. I hav d status bar hidden 4 every other program though since its only really important in firefox.

I tried taking a screenshot of d status bar with windowsblinds off. Went and copied a bit of it over the "Done", aligned it up perfectly and all! When i used it though it started stretching and contracting when the loading bar came up so i just went 4 pure black
