something about the line down the middle I don't like so much. got the center line on the plaque lined up with the line on the panel - maybe if the plaque was one piece or maybe 3
do have to admit though, you guys/gals are rocking on this.../

or turn the background wood on it's side?
More wood is on the way!
Sweet!
Sending emails now to AVMAN, Mike, and Mcash with links for almost all the images Used in the wall and taskbar and and...everything. Included is a request for the Emerald texture to cut up, some more wood, and the start menu stuff if you missed it. If anyone else needs the links, let me know so I can email them to you.

I like that, 2of3. Do we get to dress the troll in a Red Shirt and set our phasers to 'thump'?

We'll include him as a special guest in our next "Wacky Trek" episode! Thought we may have to resort to photon torpedoes to get rid of the little bugger!

It looks great. Not exactly what I had in mind and maybe it can't be done.
I think I want to add a glyph or image to the state when no mouse is over it. I was looking for the Troll to loop until you clicked down with the mouse- then you see 'THUMP'. I tried messing with your settings then I remebered I had Drain Bamage. This will work. I may have screwed up the images I sent. On the 'THUMP' image, you will notice a border on each end. It looks like I forgot the border on the left on all the others. I will check what I have.
Questions;
Have I made the button, taskbar, etc., too big?
What do you think of the system tray? I just flipped the start button. Is it too redundant?
Any suggestions on design in general?
Not sure I like the resizing bar I made for the taskbar. Kinda blends in too much and doesn't do anything to accent itself or the taskbar.
Also;
In your previews..The start panel looks great in Skinstudio, but on your screen the edges look blurry and the shield looks stretched. I realize this is probably design errors on my part. DO I or CAN I do anything to fix this? (I was also wondering if the resolution was too high for the images? Would that matter?)

that sounded really bad.
I really like what you did. (I'm playing with it right now...THAT sounded REALLY bad) I know it's hard to understand my 'explanations'. I really appreciate what everyone is doing. Anywho..Didn't mean to offend or sound ungrateful.

Animation will only work on mouse over
I will play with it some
The issue is in sizing area,the image has to be stretchable so picking the exact points to stretch at is crucial.In areas that are design heavy it is harder to do examples...
user pane and log off section if I stretch the whole thing text and troll becomes distorted.I am still playing with some options do not start over yet let me see what I can do!
Thanks Noah

I think the oic in #348 should be included as a special wallpaper.... or at least downloadable...
I think that's funny as hell...nothin personal Bichur.
Although you do look nice in that red shirt.....

If there is no further input, These are the panels I'm going ahead with. I wonder if I should change the text on the stump panel to the same as the others?
I'm going to get started on assembling the different elements I got from Po to make a wall that works with these.
FYI, I'm doing both wide and non widescreen versions of all the logons (a total of 6 in the package). I'm sure someone else can knock out Vista versions if they want (will take all of 10 seconds to do)
