For Ceelorac and Jinn Fizz

Sunday, October 12, 2003 by UBoB | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I've removed the 'Orange You Glad To See Me' skin temporarily. If you want the original skin you can still find it at skinbase.org. It is in a standard .zip format there so you will need to download it and use the 'Add' feature in WindowBlinds to install it.

In the meantime, I will work on the problems with the compound skin. Check back in a week to see if it is re-uploaded.

At this point I'm not sure what the problems are. I can't seem to duplicate the problem on my system. (Once again I deleted the skin from my hard drive. In fact, I even deleted my backup copy from my second hard drive. I'm now left only with a copy that I burned to CD. After all was wiped from my system I once again downloaded the file from WinCustomize and installed it. It worked fine. At this point, I'm stumped.

Hopefully I can find the problem soon.

Thanks again to both of you for the heads-up on this problem.

motion...you have two uis files in that zip....2 different names....I dl'd it and it installed 'blue my mind' as the 'name'...but I think you'll find that it should be installing the 'orangeYGTSM' one as that has the bmps linked....all I get in a preview is a blank blue screenshot where the preview is supposed to be...

Hmmm, Jafo, I don't get it. Can't understand why it works on my system even after I erase the original folder from the Stardock/ObjectDesktop/WindowBlinds folder.

Anyway, it's getting on midnight here in Ontario, Canada and I'm starting to fade. Gonna sleep on it tonight. Tomorrow is the Canadian Thanksgiving celebration so I'll be busy with that. Won't get back to solving the problem until probably the day after.

Thanks for the help.

motion....that skin is calling up images from another folder in your wb list....so it will work on yours as you have that other folder and files.....I'm sure that is the problem...
