it'S up now!

quick BR

: the zoom-buttons and the monitor buttons are missing

Could you maybe try to reduce the size of the skin? - I think the bitmaps are too big...

Great work all in all though!

Thanks for the encouragement guys. As for the suggestions, it's like i said earlier....it needs work still. Plus, part of the reason why it's so big is that I started out with the Amoeba skin so I can see where everything is. I still haven't deleted a lot of the icons just so I could keep a point of reference instead of altering the GUI blindly. Long story short....you'll notice a lot of amoeba BMP's still stored inside. If you delete all the Amoeba BMP's I'm sure it will be lighter. I'll have that done by the next draft too. They're pretty easy to spot. If it ain't black and grey, it ain't mine lol!

Zipping the GUI up will drastically reduce the file size.

Bitmaps sometimes aren't even RLE encoded, so a 128x128 file is 128*128*8(1 byte per color)*3(R,G,B) = 390k. If you have lots of bitmaps all unencoded that starts to add up.

Wowee zowee-- great-looking stuff!

Regarding image hosting: look no further than Photobucket.com. Free and extra-easy. Just copy and paste the "[img]" tag into your KvR message.

Ok ppl, I am gonna need some help here. Does anybody know where I change the font color for the space next to the browser window? At the top of the window where it would say from left to right....open, save, setup, browser, then comes the place where you can switch from the main screen to docked pages. Sorry I couldn't put it more eloquently but I am tired and my brain is mush right now. Does anybody know where I can change this?

Thanks in advance
Cheers

Awesome! Thanks Jens.

I think version 1.1 will be coming soon if you'd be kind enough to host it please. I'll include a little surprise for the logic fans out there too,hehe.

jens · Post by **jens** » Fri Mar 18, 2005 6:11 am

sure, I'll host it, no problem.

when is soon?

autodidactic · Post by **autodidactic** » Fri Mar 18, 2005 1:21 pm

Ok folks. It's ready. Any Takers?
Btw, for the Logic fans I put in a fiendishly red version of the Apple Logic icon. you just have to go into the GUI editor and select it from the bitmaps. It's towards the bottom. Also this version I managed to cut down to about 3.28 MB (unzipped). Sorry , but I don't have winzip.

hi autodidactic

fine

you can send it to me (use my email for notification then I reply to you) and I can host it,
but you should zip it before.

There are some freeware tools to zip and unzip files:

IZArc: IZArc

AckerPack: AckerPack

These are free and good working

I need somebody to host it though. If Jens or anybody else is around that can do this,I'll pass it on.
