MyColors Theme buged..
Thursday, February 14, 2008 by Astyanax | Discussion: Stardock Support General
Just got the Sins of a Solar Empire theme and I installed MyColors on a x86 machine (I run x64). What I usually do is copy the .MyColors over to my machine to apply the theme manually. So I copied over the theme and extracted it to the correct places, iconpackager theme is fine but wb is totally fubar...: 
Anyone know how to fix the issue? Or more importantly.. When is MyColors going to be x64 compatable?

I have, just noticed something though. All the images (bmp files) have that color on them. Is this some kind of protection for MyColors themes so you can manually mess with them? The PC I installed MyColors on is an x86 with SP1 rtm on it incase anyones wondering, I also went directly to the PC and looked at the .MyColors file and the images where like that...
I hope thats not the case, I'd install MyColors on my pc but no x64 support...

Yup, it has to be due to MyColors not being installed on my PC. I just installed WB on that pc (probably just hit my activation limit too  
) and the theme showed up fine.
Uninstalled wb to use it on my pc with no fuss, but I think the only way to fix this is to have MyColors installed on x64... which is currently impossible.
I should mention older MyColor themes work fine, Boston Celtics doesn't have this issue when I manually extract it for use on x64.

Asyanax0: The theme should show correctly using WB 6.1 on 64 bit Vista.

I have it installed, the only problem is before I even extract it I took a look at the images and they all have that noise filtered look to them.

Anyone got any ideas?
Would really like to know if there is a MyColors x64 coming, that would more than likely fix my problems...
