Me too, I've just had verticals installed in every room in my house..... I just went for plain white though.[/quote]
Ahahahahahahahaha. Thank God I'm wearing my corset today, or I'd have split my sides laughing.
Hmmmm, not quite as likeable.

well its been approved but it is in my gallery
oh well there goes the good feeling I had about this one reply 337, I was so pleased with it IMO I thought it was the best one, but for some obviously not.
GRRRR I am so angry at myself as I know I could have done better. I know there are others here that have had the same done to them and they would probably be feeling as I do right now, and yes I remember the talk I had with someone on here about giving up, I recon there should be another page for the walls that don't make it to the main page there should be something better rather than just going to our own private gallery lets face it not too many people go to private gallery's all the time. I know I am going to cop some flack for saying this, but I am only saying it cos its what everyone thinks there is too much favoritism going on in moderation,

Parisienne Rainmeter... done! Well almost. Got to mess around putting helpful information in some of the .ini files, so people can edit things properly. I'll be uploading it tomorrow, or the weekend at the latest.

Thanks sViz. Couldn't have done it without BoXXi's PSD's though. And it's been a good learning experience for me. First time using vector masks, and oh boy were they helpful. Plus I've done a few more readings and features on this Rainmeter, so it's been a nice advancement from my first one. Still so much to learn though.
@Uvah - Silly sod, lol

Very good for resizing stuff without any distortion. Select one of the path/shape creating tools (U) (rectangle, rounded rectangle, Elipse, Polygon, etc) Make sure you have paths selected up in the top left, not shape layers. Create your rectangle or whatever, press A to switch to Path Selection Tool, right click path and select add vector mask. Press Shift and F5 to fill with a colour, apply layer effects or whatever. You can resize down nice and easy using the Path Selection Tool and again right clicking on the path (make sure the path thumbnail is selected) and select Free Transform Path.
Couldn't use them on the inner gold layers, they still distorted for some reason, but for the background frame and Carbon pattern layers they were invaluable.

Speaking of pen tool, I finally got around to using it. Takes a bit of getting used to but once I play with it enough I should nail it pretty quick.

Okay ... so ... you play with the pen tool and I'll play with the vector masks. Somewhere along the line between the two of us something is bound to sink in. lol
