If you want the ergonomic winamp skin so bad, open the blue one and change the colours in photoshop it would take like 2 minutes to do....

Hiya,

First off, Great theme Binary it's the only theme I've ever stuck with for longer then 35minutes.

But I have a qualm with v4 as opposed to v3.1, It's nothing big but it kind of annoys me. See Screenshot below:

- Version 4

in 3.1 I had all of the info in my systray(Date, Time, Day)

and now in 4 I cannot find what setting or whatever it is to change it.

Could someome please direct me as to where I can fix this?

Thanks in advanced

Still love this theme tho, Good work once again Binary

[edit] I forgot to add that I overwrote my Watercolor3.1 so I couldn't take a SS of that tray, sorry. If ya need one then reply and I will reinstall Watercolor3.1[/edit]

[Binary]

hmmmm thats odd because I didnt change those values at all ... What colours does this happen in? And are you running SP 1 or anything that might change the way a theme acts? And are you sure you didnt have it at 3 bar heights? as opposed to 2? wierd cause I dont remember changing any of the taskbar values.

Chris

[Binary]

ahh your right, I remember now I changed the sizing margins because of the bug where the icons would overlap the systray frame, sorry but thats the way it goes now :) I'd rather not have icons overlap, I'll play with the margins and tell you how to change them if I can find a way to fix the bug and add the date too.

Chris

[Binary]

ok here's the fix (if you want date time and day within a 2 bar height taskbar)

find the value TaskbarTray.bmp and set it's content margins to:

8,4,3,5

I may update this in v4 but I'll just up it to themexp without any info, well maybe I'll add it in the comments, but for such a slight change I'm not adding another revision number ;) I'll also try to fix the shellplayer "bug", but no promises :)

Chris

ah very nice winamp skin! thanks a lot!

[Fattie]

Thanks Binary.

Also how would I go about making my systray icons 3 rows high like in 3.1 rather then 4..

Thanks again ;]

[Fattie]

Hmm, It appears my Stylebuilder has expired and I cannot run it now. If someone could please fix what I posted about before(using Binarys values and permission) and send me the msstyles I would be much appreciative.

Thanks

is there a way i can extract the bmp files from a winamp2 skin?

i want to make it winamp3 compatible since noone here seems to make winamp3 skins... :(

[BroChaos Veteran]

well since they change how their skinning engine works with every release, i think it's best to hold off on wa3 skins, but that's just me.

[Binary]

I'll update it on themexp sometime tonight fattie

Chris

You're talking about extracting bmp files from a wmz file?

A wmz file is a zip file renamed. Just change the extension to .zip and open in winzip or whatever. :)

Binary rules ;) makes people do their own work to get what they want lol!

Good Job on the theme :)

[Binary]

Exactly, I'm no man's slave :p

I just dont see the sense in people complaining about a bug they can fix themselves in a couple seconds, instead of *****ing cause I have a life and dont update the theme quick enough for them ;), noone has done this with V4, but it has happened before, got some nasty emails in the past too, it's like some people think I'm making this theme specifically for them on a paid by the hr basis lol :D

But thanks to all of the people that report bugs, you guys are the ones that made this such a great theme!

Chris

*edit* added "some people" I didnt want to make it sound like I think everyone is like this, that experience was only with 2 or 3 people :)

[BroChaos Veteran]

right on. people forget that you could have just made this theme for yourself and never have distributed it. stick to your guns man.

[joao]

thanks binary for your hard work, i just think is microsoft had spend so many time testing and correcting the Luna msstyle maybe it could came out something better.

keep up the excellent work , i just love this theme - it has a professional look not fisherprice look ;)
