Parisienne W.I.P.
coming soon....... sorta.....
Saturday, February 4, 2012 by BoXXi | Discussion: WindowBlinds
This is the skin that I'm making while following Po and 2of3's tutorial thread, hopefully I get information there to help me make this the best it can be. Still LOTS of stuff to do yet though and some problems to solve, but i'm hanging in there!
Don't ask about the buttons at top left of the window, it's a secret.........................

Mmmmm, purdy! Nice colour combination and texture on this one, Bry. Loving it, so far. Nice cursor too. What was the inspiration for this theme, if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you Seth......... (haven't seen Brad's post) (?)
Starcandy: I have already made a few Parisienne skins (do a search....
) and I've always wanted to complete the suite with a WB, but I've only just got around to it........ (had a rough year).

I can't wait to make this skin one of my favorites. Hope you work out everything and upload soon.

Those Parisienne icons and dock tiles are the mutts nuts (to use the coarse vernacular). Take your time with the WB. I'm sure it'll be worth waiting for.

Looking good, Bryan, as always!
Snowman is going to have a blast making a matching RightClick and Tiles. ![]()

Thanks guys, still having trouble with the start menu, not sure if it can be fixed with tiling margins, or maybe layers, or if I need to redesign it.....![]()

Actually Cyndie is better at figuring out these tiling issues than I am. She has at least more patients that I do.....LOL!
Still stuck on this and need me to take a look or have you gotten it sorted?

What do those buttons on the top left do?

Oh Tim, I do have a question...... Where is the setting that changes the colour of the text in that address bar in Internet Explorer (you can see in the SS why I need to change it.) I use IE8.......... ![]()

Are you -still- struggling with that? ![]()
Been a few years, since I helped you the first time. Ought to have learned it by now.

As far as I know the address bar text is controlled by the toolbar button text.

Unless you mean the searchbox....that is controlled by the window text color in the edit colors section.
