Little red close button
do not like it
Monday, December 31, 2012 by doortech1 | Discussion: Skinning
Does anyone know if the little red close button and pin image are skinnable through wb? I have a feeling not, but will ask the pros. Thanks in advance.

What is it that you are skinning? VLC? That's what it looks like. I don't think VLC is skinnable but.............da pros knows.
And what's wrong with icon packager? 
Don't mind me lol I'm just wakin' up.

not possible with any Stardock software.
you'll need a resource hacker to change these. they are in imageres.dll if i remember correctly.

vlc is the most popular skinnable software around.

Those icons are controlled by the system, so unless you're willing to hack your system it would be best to leave them alone doortech1. Personally I hate the way the "wed one" (good one Wiz!) looks too.

Uvah:
with more than one billion downloads (of course that includes multiple versions) it is one of the most popular applications for all desktop operating systems.
and it is skinnable.

it's a pity that the skins for OSX use a different format, as these are a lot better looking (at least in my opinion)

it's been awhile but I had an icon program that I thought let me open dll files, I wonder if icon packager allows that?

Thanks all you class clowns. I kinda figured. I would hack my system without hesitation, but does no good for the blind. Not life ending, was just curious as I looked at several top skins and not one had skinned it.
Uvah, nothing wrong with Icon packager or whatever it is, I just only have so much time and do not want to get caught up doing icons also.
FYI, I use vlc always and it is skinnable. I have also made two skins for power dvd, but I am the only one with those. I can not upload the files, they are 40mb or better. Not happening on dial up. Otherwise, I would share them. One is called Silky Window, The other is called Purple, yeah, I know, real creative. Took one year to do both with restorator and adobe.
Thanks again evryone.
