tyler: yes!!!!

Check out my skin installer! It allows you to do it the easy way! Just rename it to like classic.tbs or whatever instead of wmploc.dll and put it in C:\WMPT and run my program, click open skin, and click the skin, log off, then log on. Simple!

Hey everyone, the program progress is going along great and we expect to have a substantial upgrade soon to the WMP9 Taskbar Changer. We plan on hosting a website that will allow people to download skins for it, and what better place to start then here? Therefore I am requesting (if possible) to acquire any of the private skins that have been previewed here, but not posted/hosted. If you are interested, you may send me the either the bmps or the wmploc.dll file at:

To those who have hosted their skins already, we would appreciate it if we could get your permission before we host it ourselves (up to you), and the appropriate credits and skin name

i.e. Luna by CarbonKnight (or if you wish your name)

We hope *gulp* to have this program recognized on wmplugins.com, and download.com...

[Etc.]

You're free to use mine if you choose.

Working on a new skin based on the Silver XP theme... not for me of course, but I'm sure others will use it. Took me only an hour to do create it so far.

Feedback would be appreciated....

[CarbonKnight]

:rolleyes: Thanks for the feedback.

I'm also working on a slight update to the Luna for myself and the people who requested it.

I quite like the way the Silver looks, especially the right buttons. Too bad they don't contrast so well on the Luna, but I may figure something out. You know those two small buttons that pop up on the taskbar when you have a ton of windows open? I realized I could of used those for the right buttons, but they fit the entire taskbar, whereas the skin is slightly smaller. :( Too bad.

[CarbonKnight]

How do you go about changing the text color in the Taskbar player so that it's not that unsightly green?

[Deron Dantzler]

Looking foward to the update CarbonKnight! :D

[Toxikk Veteran]

anyone know how to get the default taskbar skin to not expand the taskbar when using a single taskbar in windows classic?

[Guest]

you could try resizing the bitmaps but im not sure

i think dazzla tried that with a RC version he never said how it went
