Theme manager problem

Saturday, July 17, 2004 by Latin4567 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

ok, I just downloaded the newest realese of themes manager. I was trying to make a suite to put my Longhorn evolved dx skin and voodo freak's longhorn slate windowblinds skin together. Whenever I try to load the suite file that i created, it says that i "have not ed a skin file", when i go to the advanced menu there are no skin files there but i HAD SAVED IT WITH THE DX SKIN AND THE WINDOWBLINDS SKIN, it should download the 2 skins when i hit apply >
but when i tried also packaging a wallpaper into it, the wall worked fine!...

is it possible that skins need to be in a zip on wc to be downloaded by the themes manager?

does a skins url have to be a wincustomize url to work with themes manager?

I've never used themes manager to create themes, but my guess would be that the skins would have to be in the WC libraries.

Theme Manager probably has an allergic reaction to the word 'Longhorn'.

I'm sure there is more than enough 'Longhorn' related things around already....

[call this a hint]....

Just tossing this out there 'cause I don't know if there's a difference in their ability to create themes...Are you using the SDC version or the Freeware version that was just released? Maybe the freeware version only allows you to install themes, not create them? I don't know, just suspecting that there's probably some limitations to the freeware version Either that or I'm going with what Jafo said
