I should have known someone other than me would make a Vista theme. Still putting the finishing touches on mine though.

Man, all you guys are lucky. I had to find out where the buttons were using paint (x and y), I had to count the size of each screen and button, and I had to make my buttons seem transparent since I'm not sure how to make a bmp transparent.. Was I missing some coordinates or am i just stupid?

Um... Have you been using the skin creator tool given in the 1st post?

Try that, it should simplify things for you...

Kk, Let me just put them on my Photobucket. I only have to do the Cheat Icons then make sure the menu buttons are perfect.
Here is the preview

if you read through all of the posts, you would see that I have said twice already the dimensions for each image.

I will say it again here, but I think an admin should put this information on the first post atleast:

bottom.bmp and top.bmp = 256px x 192px

menu-icons.bmp = 128px x 192px

cheat-icons.bmp = 32px x 48px

scrollbar.bmp = 8px x 64px

the only thing you really need the program for is generating the skin.xml for your skin, but that can be done easily enough by hand, for example here is mine:
CODE

ÂÂTango! Edge Skin
ÂÂhttp://omgmog.net
ÂÂ1.0
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ
ÂÂ


so to make a complete skin you need:
skin.xml
top.bmp
bottom.bmp
menu-icons.bmp
cheat-icons.bmp
scrollbar.bmp

the icons on the menu-icons.bmp are each 64x64px and laid out as follows
Code:
games hover | games normal
media hover | media normal
prefs hover | prefs normal

the icons on the cheat-icons.bmp are each 16x16px and laid out as follows
CODEfolder closed | folder open
big disabled | big enabled
small disabled | small enabled

pretty sure if you're posting it should be a submission not a preview
no comments would be better, it makes others jealous or gives off unwanting opinions

Heh, sorry about the icon guys, I am new to the forums and I linked it from my site. I thought I figured out a way to make the image viewable to all, but HostMonster must have changed it. I'm still working on my theme, by the way, and the critique helps!
