Windowblind not loading...
Thursday, November 13, 2003 by EventHorizon | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Well, I recently (as of today) got my 1st windowblind uploaded and have had a few comments on it that say people have had trouble getting it to load correctly. I personally have no problems with it, so (unfortunately) I cant really help them. I was wondering if someone could check the skin out and see what's wrong.

I just tried it Event, and although it DLed ok and I could add the WB through Properties, it all fell apart after that and would not load.
I am using Windows ME, and I like it.
Well, I have to like it, it's all I got at the moment.

Ok, whenever I have the skin in SS and I zip for distriuition, everything works just fine. But, when I try to open the file, it creates an empty folder in the windowblinds directory. Whats even weirder, is that I can open the *seemingly corrupted* .wba in SS, and find all the files perfectly intact. I can also load the skin with no problems from there...

The WBA is nothing more then a zip file so zip all the files related to the skin, rename it as WBA and you should be set...
