Description Hello!

Finally, after eons of hard work it is released! Port of a beautiful theme originally created by Kevin Husted [link]

Disclaimer: (from Kevin's website)
So your a PC/Linux user who has ported an SS original?
I get so many emails from users of other operating systems letting me know that they have created their own ports of my work for their platforms it astounds me. I'll be very frank with you, the only community I am worried about is the Macintosh community; I create the OSX originals and strive for bug free, well thought and well executed GUI's. I do not endorse any particular port of my work for these other platforms. I do not attempt to regulate ports.

Port and distribute as you like while noting that the port is inspired by but unrelated to Swizcore Studio.
*******

Hello there sir. I love the look of this UI and am deathly interested in it. Unfortunately I was unable to use it because when I downloaded it, I got an error stating that this was not a Windowblinds file because is was missing a .UIS extension. Can you suggest some sort of solution.

Pe7er In reply to V0Y3UR [2005-01-12 08:09:21 +0000 UTC]

Hmm...make sure that you use latest version of Windowblinds (that would be 4.5). If you still have problems go to stardock.com and ask there, I just made a theme and files in package are ok

Thank you. My friend and I actually realized that we were trying to load the compressed file from your link as the actual skin. We thought you had the skin and applicable themes right there. We got it to work but not without some bugs. I noticed that my toolbar would not show, despite following the instruction and that the toolbar icons would duplicate themselves and show in smaller versions on top of the menu drop-downs. That was the only kink i found. Ultimately my friend gave up because it required far too much work! Is there some way you could streamline the skin and its applicable themes so that it would work right from download and application? It's an awesome skin, it's just got far too many complexities and kinks and takes a lot of retooling.

Maybe I'm just ranting but if you could give me some sort of detailed instuction on applying it and some screenshots, that would help. I understand that you're busy with other things but I'd appreciate it and be very thankful.

Sorry but there's no easy way to skin windows. You have to go through all this hell to get consistent look. Detailed instructions are included in zip file, you must have overlooked something.

Well, just as I was going to download it I noticed that the buttons are on the left in the pic...is there a sub with them on the right?
I've been wanting a very black skin and though I have several none are like this one! It's beautiful...

One of the best theme's I've seen for Windowblinds, and more specifically as a port from the Mac OSX platform, and I've tried a lot of them, great work on getting an accurate and clean look. Mind you, I'm finding it slightly difficult to get all the little extras working which you so kindly included

naprawde czadzik tylko zastanawiam sie czy da sie zmnic wyglad moich ikonek, bo przy przegladaniu ich za pomoca looca 1.7 mam problem bo wygladaja jak domysle windy xp. (dodam ze uzywam style xp i ikonek 3fx_ip zamineione za pomoca icon translatora ze style xp) Daj znac jezeli wiesz jak to zmienic bo ja po wielu probach nadal nie rozwiazalem tego problemu, ach i jeszcze jedno zrob jakiegos piknego visual style;a bo twoje skiny poprostu wymiataja stary a niesetyt korzystam ze style xp. Pozdrawiam i czekam z niecierpliwoscia na twoje kolejne dziela, moze jakas skorka w stylu safari Jeszce raz dzieki za skorki i za inspiracje

1. Ikony najlepiej podmieniæ 'twardo', czyli edytuj±c pliki systemowe albo instaluj±c jaki¶ pakiet, który pliki systemowe podmienia. Najlepszy jest Flyakite's System Pack - znajdziesz go na [link]
2. VS'ów nie bêdê nigdy robi³, poniewa¿ u¿ywam Windowblinds, zaznajomi³em siê ju¿ trochê ze Skinstudio, nie chce mi siê uczyæ StyleBuildera, no a poza tym to nienawidzê robiæ skór Serio, to strasznie mêcz±ce. Skombinuj sobie Windowblinds, to nie takie trudne.
3. Skórek w stylu safari znajdziesz moc na [link]

Powodzenia

1. Jezeli otworzysz na aqua-soft.org wyszukiwarke (jest gdzies tam przycisk 'Search') i wpiszesz 'flyakite', na bank wyskoczy topic [release] Flyakite's co¶tam co¶tam 5.0 - to jest to

2. Jak zainstalujesz windowblinds to nie bedziesz potrzebowal yZtoolbara, poza tym nie slyszalem o niczym do niego podobnym.

beautifull one , i regret the "adobe problem" , but after all as i only use the shortcuts, i don t really care if i don t see all the stuffs on photoshop's tools .

time will say if i keep this one or if i go back to the "avenger" by mike bryant . it s so hard to find some good non too bright skins.

thanks for doing this
