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.........................

Quoting 2of3, reply 19As far as I know the address bar text is controlled by the toolbar button text.
But where do I find that? I get confused there are that many bloody buttons!!!
Crap. I have IE9...that's a different animal.
Try these 2 sections:

Yes, but that is Explorer (windows). I want to change the same text but in Internet Explorer. In SKS I see settings for IE7 and IE9, but not 8.
At the moment my IE text is black, I want it to look like that image you just posted. Does that make sense? ![]()

By the way, the text in the address bar for IE8 is controlled by the Window Text color in the colors section....which would change your text everywhere.
I sure with IE8 and IE9 were skinnable like IE7 was.

This is an image taken from the IconPackage "Pale Leather" that I'm currently working on. I was so stunned by the matching color schemes, I just had to jump in here and show you a screeny from one of the disk drive icons.

Thanks Cyndie, I found it eventually!! lol. I did change it, but it looked awful and screwed up too many other things too, so it'll have to stay. I can live with it....... ![]()
AceMatrix: that's VERY cool, I like it!!

I've been looking forward to this ever since you did the first Parisienne items.

Well, yesterday, Cyndie (Xiandi) gave up her valuable time to help me on the start menu and some other things. So now it is looking quite spiffy and I should be able to get on and finish it now!! Hopefully it won't be too long...... ![]()
Thank you Cyndie......
