A couple of questions

Sunday, July 20, 2008 by casualtraveller | Discussion: Skinning

Hi folks

I am stumped as to how to do the following. Apologies im totally new to this

I need a preview image for my skin.   in the windowblinds changer it just shows up as blank.

Also where do you skin the mouseover for the all programs menu?


I need rid of this blue square box

Thanks in advance if anyone can help

The preview isnt showing up because you havent skinned your UIS2 frames (the bitmap ones), Once you add these a preview will show up.

Skinning the all programs arrow can be tricky, really the best way to learn is to open a skin that has a skinned all progs mouseover, disect it, see how its done.. most of my earlier skins have it skinned, I'd advise against it thesedays though as it causes problems on non-english systems.
