Yokel does it again...You just keep getting better..One small problen though..With Kernow and this one the fox sidebar background gets lighter near the top.  It's a distinctive line about 3/4 up.  Whaticall does not do this..

Kesroesweyth in the Cornish language means internet, I wander what we would all being doing now if there was no internet?

Probably living life to the fullest.

Thank you for the comment AlanWade.

scharchuk & natas2 - I think you could be right, although I must confess I would be speechless!

grump11- I do not use the default theme for Firefox, (Black Stratini theme & Stylish user styles) but I tried the the default theme with the 3 blinds you mention, but nothing untoward shows up with the sidebar background on my computer. Must be one of those anomalies that makes computing an inexact science, & keeps us entertained trying to find a workaround!

You are right, there is no end to this endeavor.  I've had this problem with other blinds in the past, perhaps it's just a win7[64].,thing. I do find it odd that the problem only just showed up in your last 2 blinds.  A man with your talents is sure to figure it out.  In the meantime thank-you for your artistry.

Thank you for the comments, chr1s65 & Ausvet.

grump11 - I have worked out the problem, I changed the gradients in the toolbar image, which is used by the fox sidebar background, as I said, I do not use the default theme or the sidebar, so did not pick it up, I will update the last 2 blinds.

S  J N - I am afraid I do not know the reason the start button should appear below the taskbar, by design it is meant to have approximately a guarter above the bar.

Could it be my res? 1600 X 900.

S J N - I made the blind on my PC with a 1280 X 1024 resolution display, & tested it on our 1280 X 800 laptop, where it works OK. I must confess I can not think of a reason why this should happen, when I move the task bar to the four sides of the screen, the the start button remains to have a part of it above the bar, as it should be.

A very sweet blind.  One of the few dark blinds I have found to be useable because of dark fonts on dark backgrounds (a Windows shortcoming).  However, when I open Windows Explorer it looks like below.  Is this a blind characteristic or it something in my Windows XP setup, and if so how can I fix it.

Thank you for your comment, Snap Hook.

Regarding your Explorer Background, it is definitely not meant to appear like that, I think I have found the problem. Can you check in the WindowBlinds config. that the correct substyle has been applied, ( on the bottom bar, "3 styles" ) if the XP style is not highlighted, apply it.

If the XP style is applied go to the blind folder ( shared documents/ Stardock/ window blinds/ Kesroesweyth ). & find the file TaskBandGroupBack.bmp & delete it, & re-apply the blind this should solve problem.

The problem is caused by a bug in WindowBlinds which applies this image into the Explorer background automatically if you do not replace it. I do not replace the image in the XP substyle as it covers up the shell icons. I also delete this image from the skin folder, but obviously my brain was not in gear & I forgot to do so.

I hope this solves the problem.

CY,

The XP version was applied and the deletion of taskbandgroupback.bmp resolved the problem.  Many thanks for some great work.
