Yes thank you!Then to make the start button taller than the task bar I set the margins to the height of the taskbar. And i set the start button to always show so it is overlaying the menu? Right. I cant make a skin on this pc? I think because my pc is so old it isnt working with skin studio? I cant get the transparency for the taskbar button to show upon apply. It shows in the preview but not on apply? I checked them to have transparency? If I have an image for a part of the skin and it has a se

Ok since no one answered that. I have seen on other windows blinds skins that i opened with skin studio that they used one single taskbar image and had it streach all the way across into the start button area and into the tray area. Then they just made an image for the star button and had it over lay upon the streatched taskbar. How to do this?

I dont know I even made an image with gimp to test it. A square 100 by 30. Added alpha chanel and Select all clear. THen inside I made a red square so that the checkared border was all the way around it and saved it as .png. IN the save options what should i have checked and unchecked? Imported to windows blinds and still showed up as black? And still png when i import it. No transparency will work? Do i have to save the skin before it shows transparency?

Reply to I am CLUELESS? in SkinStudio WinCustomize Forums

I do I push clear. Which is delte. I make the green so that i can select by color in gimp. there will be no green in the image so it will be a perfect selection around the image i want to show. I can use gimp to make the images? I am not good with gimp at all. Maybie i could? Does gimp have a brush that you can change the bias on? And a tool for makeing line straight or curved?

Launchy 2.0 Released in Windows Software WinCustomize Forums

I have heard about Launchy a few times but never though that it would serve a purpose in my everyday computing. That's becuase I wasn't shure what it was? I was browsing for wallpapers yesterday and saw Launchy 2.0 released as a recent post at Customize.org I thought I would check it out. Boy am I glad I did! This program is not only FREE, but it also uses a very small amount of system recources. &n

Reply to RAM in Object Desktop WinCustomize Forums

All i am saying is that a buyer like me wouldnt know that it is a standalone product. And i think that you should either specify in the requirements for object desktop that it only applies to the OD launchpad and that we should check the requirements for each individual program. Or you should state the requirements for the Program with the most\highest requirements and state that other programs in the list may vary but this is the highest. I was only stateing this for your benifit so that there

Ok Daiwa I tryed the spaceing for the button thing. It worked. There is space and the button is the size that i want it. I am having so much trouble gettin skin studio to recognize the transparency. Here is what I am doing. I made a square in my image program the same height as my task bar image. I filled it with green becuase green wont be used in the acual button. I made the button image inside the green with the green all of the way around it. So I have the button with a green border of about

Ok kind of understand what you are saying Daiwa? If I use Transparency at the edges of the buttons and Set the margins so that the tranparency is ON the OUTSIDE of margins for them It will make space? I will try? Correct me if I am wrong. Another question for anyone who is familair with Project Dogwaffle? Not the best program but as Default it saves the images as tga or the second option is bmp? It also has alpha options. I use the alpha to protect the other parts of the image i dont want to col
