awesomeness! how do you make the taskbar the right orientation for the top of the screen? i noticed you have it correct in your pics.
keep it up!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
if you have the latest, then the taskbar should auto adjust when you drag it up there.

Hey mario, can i get the living room with the couch wallpaper that is in your picture screenshot. It is so nice, where do you get those type of wallpapers, or do you make them yourself. I want it to go with the Pico tea which is absolutely breath taking. Thank you, i really like your style of design.

Hello, (oh my god this is my first post !)
Firstly, thanks for this amaizing skins pack, i really love it !
I just would like to know if there is an easy way to change the workspace background ? (the green background in MDI application)

i apologize for not replying sooner. actdually, i dont like the green myself for the mdi background, it's too bright. i'm open for suggestions.

how can i change the very greenish color when i click something.. ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The green came about to harmonize with leafy nature wallpapers. Others have had success using change skin color in WindowBlind configuration. I do plan on making a more generic version with dark gray controls this after I release this. I don't know when the release will be. I see a lot of enhancement requests.

Love this bloody skin! Simple, functional, sleek, sexy and very customizable...is this skin.
Finally a mature skin instead of the normal juvenile ones.
Keep up the good work, you made my week!
PS Could you make a start menu without the transparent border? Sometimes it looks muddled on a white background etc. Perhaps a dark version as well (black)?

Thanx for sharing this great skin, if i can figure out how to change the colour of the start panel or make it transparent like the taskbar i'll be in heaven. Awaiting you advice/response!

I updated to rc11 and i no longer have round edges for my taskbar - i tried various different .bat files but no go (i am using the normal pico-tea with the use-taskbar-white-3gl.bat though i could not get them with any other .bat) - was this feature removed? i really loved it
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It was removed. Taskbars are auto-generated from the active window title bar. If I use the round corner, there is a slight trace of the shadow effect. I also liked the round corner but I didn't want to do all this work manually in photoshop.

got it... thanks and thanks again for the hard work on this skin.

ok, i think ive missed something. i no longer have the taskbar font changing batch files in the pico tea folder after reinstalling it. neither use-font-taskbar-white.bat or use-font-taskbar-black.bat are there, and the dark task bars do need the white font.
is it just me or have they been left out intentionally, or have i just not read the posts completely?

it's tied to the panel. this changed when I added support for 32px, 48px compact panels. click the panel you want along with the color

can you get me the first desktop wallpaper of the room, I love it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
This is by far my all-time favorite skin.
There's only one way that I can think of that you could improve it--if you were able to make a set of batch files to change the color of the scrollbar and selected items bmps, that would be amazing. I like the green a lot, but there are a lot of desktops that it won't work with. Maybe just release a batch file that turns the bars, etc., grayscale and leaves the rest of the skin colored.

unfortunately, that would take a huge effort at this point. i do plan on making a more generic version of this skin using grays for the controls. this was originally a skin for leaves/nature type wallpapers and i started adding colors to match flowers, sun, etc. it works rather well with other type of wallpapers but you're right the green does throw things off. no worries, the next pico skin will be more generic. once i release this, it will take about a week to get a WIP of the new controls.

dude, i have to say pico tea and aero minimal are truly fabulous skins. thanks hugely for the effort youve put into them. i cant wait to see what your next project is.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thanks. the next project should have more appeal. i'm making a more generic version of pico tea using grays. then i'll work on a completely different skin.

hehe. i'm a programmer so i have scripts for almost all of this stuff. that's my advantage over other designers. i can go from mock ups to subtyles in literally a few minutes.

everything you see in the download is my original work and is licensed under creative commons. i used some icons from "the Vista Icon Package team" and that's the only exception.

Do I need firefox to work any of your taskbars and stuff, cause I can't get firefox? Can it work with IE? Internet Explore 7?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
To be honest, I don't quite understand your question. My skin is not affected by IE or Firefox. If you're asking did I skin either browser. No, I did not. I rarely use IE anymore. If you're referring to toolbars, there's a video link in the description on how to use Styler toolbars.

No, I mean, if I download it would it become my taskbar or skin? and If I can do that what programe would I need to use it, or do I just download it and I go to propertise and change it?

This is a WindowBlinds 5 skin [link] Also see styler. Those are the two utilities I feature in my screenshot.
