100% clear taskbar
Friday, November 18, 2005 by KristByrne | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I found a bug in the first beta of WindowBlinds5 that made the taskbar 100% clear.
I was using Arrow.
I liked it though.
Now that I have upgraded to a newer beta I can not dupelicate it.
I have Skin Studio and all that great stuff.
I tried to edit the skin my self and make the taskbar 100% clear.
NO LUCK.
I'm sure it is really easy to do, I have just never used the software before.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Okay, I must be an idiot because I can not get this to work.
I tried both methods.
I tried to edit the .tga in Photoshop.
I made it clear, saved it, re-epllied the skin, then it just looks white.
I tried making it "pink" for transparent, just ended up looking white.
I tried changing the value to 0 in Skin Studio, no effect.
I am usin the Arrow Skin with WB5.
What am I missing?
If you have this skin, try doing it yourself.
You can even email me the editted .tga if you want.

under the options on the right side for your picture (when you're going the photoshop route) in skinstudio make sure you click transparency and translucent.
