/me will change the background of the winamp skin... if you'd like to try out my skin and see what its like now.... not really very good, just send me an email or im @ roboirc@hotmail.com - AIM: HugYourDaddy

If anyone would like to help out and show me some ways to resize the player and equalizer and stuff, PLEASE DO! Thanks

If, by resizing, you mean just choosing a new size for your skin, you just need to change the size of the background image of whatever component you're referring to. See the backgrounds of simple skin and steve's latest to see what I mean.

Actually, i want to resize it as in height, I've already tried changing the background and it doesnt make it any taller.. so any ideas?

[Gonzotek]

Delete studio.xnf and if that doesn't work, zip it up and send it to me and I'll check it out.

So... I've deleted my studio.xnf while looking through other posts... now I've noticed when i do transparency its.. well... not transparent... so is there any easy way other than email I could send you my zip file? Like IRC or AIM or maybe even Windoze Messenger? If not just leave your email... Thanks!

[Dallas]

Ok... I just restored the studio.xnf from my recycle bin... and its still not transparent...

[Dallas]

Now I've redone the player bg and its... in some places transparent...some places not.... GAH!!!!!:eek: :confused: :eek:

[Gonzotek]

Let me know what time tomorrow you can be on AIM (screename - gonzophd ) - and I'll try to pop on, I was on my way to bed when I saw your message. anytime between 9a-10p est is doable.

Are other skins showing up ok, what do you mean by not transparent? Screenshot?

Actually I've seen like 3 maybe 4 tutorials for those buttons. Here is one. I will post the others shortly when I find them.
button tutorial (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation.php?id=76972)

[Dallas]

I don't see why anyone would need a tutorial to make wwhat i made... it was easier than pie! Just use a program to make it.... want to know which? Go to ulead.com and dowwnload photoimpact 7!

[Dallas]

Gonzo: See!
huh?

[Enzo250GTO]

I agree its easy, but people were asking how to make it. So I pointed them ot a nice photoshop tutorial in the event they needed help. Not everyone on here is an expert GD. A lot are starting out newbies and the others well could be like me. It's a side hobby and sometimes I need help(I'm not a GD). No need to get bent out of shape over it.

[Dallas]

I'm no GD either, I'm saying its simple as 1 2 if you download that program, many things you can do with it and its great... no need to geet bent out of shape...

[Gonzotek]

Looking at it, there seems to still be another image somewhere holding the whole skin from being transparent. Have you opened up the Simple Skin? I'm signed on AIM now as gonzophd . If you IM me and I don't reply right away, don't sweat it, I have to leave my desk often.

Simple Skin?

[Dallas]

Ok... now what?
