Colored window corners

Monday, January 1, 2007 by Cbowen162 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

 
 Hello All and have a happy New Year! Okay, Please forgive me if this post is in the wrong area, this is my first post on this site and I wasn't sure if another spot would have been better. Anyway, I've been using WindowBlinds 5 for quite a while now I have recently come up with an issue that I hadn't seen before. Almost every time I change one of the blinds, I've been noticing a small amount pink at the corners of all but a few blinds. It doesn't seem to occur when I used blinds with square corners, it only shows up on the one's with rounded off corners. Some of the blinds like K-Tek Steel, I have used for months on this computer and I also used them on my previous computer but I just noticed this about a month or so ago.

I've reinstalled my graphics card drivers, deleted and reinstalled WindowBlinds 5 as well as each of the blinds that showed the pink. I've changed screen resolutions from 800x600 to 1680x1050 with no change.

Please help, I seem to go into some pretty rough withdrawls when I'm stuck lookng at those standard Windows blinds, I think my eyes almost started bleeding one time but I was able to switch to the silver XP theme and it helped for a short while, you know what I mean. So thanks in advance!

Are you installing WindowBlinds 5 from SDC? Some of your dates are from an older version and could use updating. Try updating to the latest version from Stardock Central. - https://www.stardock.com/products/sdcentral/

That's the 5.1 trial/standalone release version

I've seen some pink once in a while on older skins
