Reply to A few WB 5 Bugs I've encountered in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I take back my whiney bitching. I discovered what was causing both the non per-pixel bugs I was describing. Another program was set to run at startup which was changing the classic style. Sorry guys Could you anyone advise me of a cheap card they may be using which runs WB5 without any lag? Thanks.

Ok. I can live with the little jerk, but I cannot deal with the black dialog backgrounds and system colours reverting after a reboot, any ideas on whats causing that, I'm fairly certain thats not a card issue as WB 4 was fine in this regard. Thanks. As a side note: I have no idea what this means, but - If I go into display properties and turn off hardware acceleration, the windows do not jerk at all, as long as I dont re-apply a skin or rebo

Indeed. But, quite frankly, onboard graphics isnt an excuse for these bugs as some never happened with WB 4, and the others work fine with other programs using per pixel windows. All I've heard so far is that it's my graphics card, well thats not acceptable, because it isnt, a 64MB card is plenty capable of handling these things without lag or bugginess, as other programs have shown to me in the past. I'd like a WB dev (frogboy) to converse with me, be

A few WB 5 Bugs I've encountered in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I've discovered a few bugs while playing with WB 5, none which have been fixed up to the very last beta. - My 'Open with' dialog box as well as others have black backgrounds making it impossible to read the text. - For the last few builds it seems that everytime I reboot Windowblinds defaults the classic colour scheme to Luna, and not that of the WB skin chosen, it also reverts the shell animations. - Using Cursor

You are a sad, sad, man hashonboat. This is just like whats happening to us Canadians. We are being boycotted by various companies simply because our gov't disagrees with the war. Disgusting is all I have to say about this topic. The sad part is, poor hashonboat was probably brainwashed by the US media, who is having everyone believe "if your not with us, your against us". Or is this really what you personally feel? If it is, I suggest you go see a shrink before you worry about another nations i

I understand completely. It is up to the author. I just wish they would allow people to do it, because there are some great WB skins, and chances are these WB skin authors arnt going to take the time to port their skins to msstyles on their own. I would never rip a WB skin without permission, in fact I was going to email someone and ask permission for a certain skin. But I just might not do it now, since most WB authors will probably say no <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/mad.

Reply to WinXP Skins? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Hi Again tandis I see what you mean, but now that people know XP visual style skins (msstyles) are available, people might get confused, it was just a suggestion, I think WB3 would be more appropriate *shrug* And I dont like what T-Man said.. you cannot accept "unauthorized" msstyles? Thtas like calling me a t

Thanks Tandis I know it's sort of different between an OS skin and a program skin such as WB. I just think skinners should open up more, not be soooo hmm whats the word.... protective. Obviously now that there are other options then WB people are going to "rip" skins, it's unavoidable (and sort of a compliment). So they way I see it, if people can improve upon your work, great, but they should at l

WinXP Skins? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Hi, Not to start a fight or anything! But why would you make a section called winXP skins? When they are in fact WB3 skins? This just may be confusing to people, although this is a WB type site... and thats whats expected *shrug* Just a suggestion Plus, to Brad or any other owner of the site, will you ever make a visual style section? Cause if you do I'd like you to host my theme <img src="http://im

Hi, I am Binary from the neowin board (hi brad ) As I read through these posts it makes me sick. I have ported the original watercolor skin from whistler build 2419 to msstyles format, does this make me a bad person? No. Because quite frankly there are dozens of watercolor skins for WB. Which I am sure they didnt get permission from MS to do. So now I see new watercolor skins poping up (ugly I might
