Guest amo Posted May 17, 2003 Report Posted May 17, 2003 No one on here is sad enough to want a Crystal Palace Skin are they???!!! :wink: :oops: Do I really need to answer that!? :)
Guest ricmoo2003 Posted May 17, 2003 Report Posted May 17, 2003 well done midnight i look forward to it
Guest drblow Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 Ooh, err - this skin is excellent by the way - but my WMP seemd to have died!! :cry: I just installed the skin a while ago, did the reboot, it all seemed to go fine & I had forgotten about the WMP skin, but when I treid to open WMP just there now it just flashes 'Windows Media Player' along the icon bar & disappears! This happened to me before when changing media skins. Anybody else had this prob? Richie M / Midnight - what'll I do? I have tried uninstalling/re-installing, but the same thing happened. :x
Guest Richie M Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 hhhmm strange, that usually only happens when there is an error in the skin, but as it works for others i'm not sure :? You are using the latest version?
Guest Vector Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 I had this problem, it didn't do the registry changes properly so i had to do change it manually :? It works fine now :)
Guest Richie M Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 Weird, should of, nm - there you go drblow change the reg manually :)
Guest drblow Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 Weird, should of, nm - there you go drblow change the reg manually :) Ha! :twisted: & what exactly would a fella have to change in the registry!!?? I don't think I've changed media skins that way before :roll:
Guest davy Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 Same thing happened to me with wmplayer. :shock: Did another hard reset and will reload the skin if/when this problem is fixed as I'm not yet confident enough to fool about with registry. Can you put a warning on 1st post for other non techies like myself :?: Lovely skin btw. :) :( davy.
Guest Richie M Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 I dont know why some people have problems with this and others dont :? The registry key it is writing is correct :? The key is; HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindows Media Player 8Parameters Value; SkinDir should be IPSMProgram FilesReload The last slash in the value is very important, make sure its there or it wont work. Can someone post the reg value they are getting after installing please.
Guest Richie M Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 :idea: just worked out why some people my be having problems with WMP skin :) I bet you have previously installed a theme with a custom WMP Skin, right ? I guess what has happened is that a previuos skin has overwritten the skin filename in registry - which is meant to stay at the default value "wmplayer.skn" :roll: Therefore you have two options, uninstall the rouge theme before installing Reload or change the following reg key; HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindows Media Player 8Parameters Value; SkinFile should be wmplayer.skn This is not a fault of the Reload installer or skin, it is poor implementation of another skin, as 99% of WMP skins use the default skin name as this shouldnt need changing
Guest davy Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 Cheers for that RichieM. I did have a skin on the wmp. I take it that if I load Reload (no pun intended :) :( ) and then want to load another skin with wmp skin included I have to uninstall Reload completely from the phone. :?: Thanks, davy.
Guest Richie M Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 Cheers for that RichieM. I did have a skin on the wmp. I take it that if I load Reload (no pun intended :) Â :( ) and then want to load another skin with wmp skin included I have to uninstall Reload completely from the phone. :?: Â Thanks, davy. Er you shouldn't do, because when you install it, it should use the correct name, if it uses another name it will rewrite the registry - but when you uninstall that it'll revert back to what it's meant to be :D hope you follow that. Anyway, why on earth would anyone want to use a different skin :lol:
Guest drblow Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 :) :( Sorted!! Cheers Richie! Now, I hope you don't think this is too cheeky, but - how do I change the clock text to white?? And how do I change the orange menu highlight (to dark blue - #000088?? :D I've tried the colours I want to change in the colours list - but can't seem to get the orange highlight. & I looked at the clock plugin - there was no colours specified, so I added - fgcolor="#ffffff" - hoping to just change the clock to white - but no result!! I know it's cheeky as to ask you guys this after producing the nicest SPV skin yet - but you know how it is once you start customising stuff!! Hope you aren't offended! And anyway, I only want to change 2 colours for cryin out loud!! :wink: Em... thanks!! Love this skin!
Guest Dave DR Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 wow! thats pretty cool!! i do like that.. Midnight.. would it be possable to feature that skin on my site? if so i would need the cab files...
Guest Richie M Posted May 19, 2003 Report Posted May 19, 2003 if so i would need the cab files... The CAB files are not available i'm afraid Dave.
Guest nige Posted May 19, 2003 Report Posted May 19, 2003 excellent skin m8 - any chance you can post the layered file for call.gif, or just a file without the ear, so it can be used with call face cheers
Guest midnight Posted May 19, 2003 Report Posted May 19, 2003 dont worry, as soon as i've finished this matrix reloaded skin i'll create a tenplate for caller picture id apps
Guest midnight Posted May 19, 2003 Report Posted May 19, 2003 drblow, change <color name="COLOR_HIGHLIGHT" value="#000088"/> <color name="COLOR_HIGHGRADLEFT" value="#000088"/> for the blue menus, and... <clock> <time font-size="18" y="4" x="102" w="76" halign="right" fgcolor="#ffffff" /> <date font-size="12" y="18" x="102" w="76" halign="right" fgcolor="#ffffff" /> </clock> for white clock/date text
Guest dinoalbert Posted May 19, 2003 Report Posted May 19, 2003 How can I remove/uninstall this skin? I have already changed my skin to the default Full Layout and changed the non-standard screen skins...then when I uninstall Reload, it gives me an error message saying "Midnight & Richie M Reload could not be removed from your phone"
Guest drblow Posted May 19, 2003 Report Posted May 19, 2003 Cheers Midnight - ya beauty!!! :) This skin is a milestone I think in all round quality! It looks great, and the installation including the extra screens is rockin (I never managed to change the Orange incall logog - and now its gone!! :twisted: ) Can't wait for skins for pocketMVP to match! Excellent work all round boys!! :(
Guest drblow Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 eh... does the reload skin have a missed calls plugin? if not, could someone post the code which would need to be added, & where it should be added to xml? cheers.
Guest Speedy Posted May 20, 2003 Report Posted May 20, 2003 WOw this is a great skin, great work guys. I would like to have the alarmplugin incoorporated into it on the home screen, since i use it everyday. That would be just great. :)
