Windowblinds Messes up my skins

Thursday, July 21, 2005 by scotland59 | Discussion: WindowBlinds

This is rediculous. On almost every skin I install in WB, there is something wrong with it. Like either a button will be low-res and horrible, or the start menu will be chopped up. My friends WB skins are all perfect and have nothing wrong with them. I am attaching links so you can see what I'm talking about, anyone have the same problem and fixed it already? Or anyone know how to fix this?Link

If it's all or most of the skins showing this kind of problem, then your problem may be related to your graphics card or driver. I had a similiar experience with a Sony laptop which had a integrated graphics card. The card was an ATI but you had to use the "Sony" version driver which, I'm sorry to say was not as well supported. Problem finally went away along with the laptop.

Try updating to the most recent driver for your video card.

Hmm... I have the most recent driver for my nVidia card, and my computer is custom built, not all parts are the same, so do I get a driver that is the same version as my motherboard or what?

What version of WB are you running?

It looks like the startbutton issue is a bug in the skin which has bad settings which show up when your startbutton is made taller than usual (you seen to have large fonts enabled which is why that happens)
