Changed skin

[David Bailey]

Trying out new skin---





I have more new ones.
I like WindowBlinds.

 

[Chuck38]

I really like WindowBlinds as well!

I have a theme installed on my Windows 8.1.

 

[David Bailey]

They have thousands of free & paid skins.

WinCustomize: Explore : WindowBlinds

After a while I get tired of a skin & try a new free one.

Windows 10 will hopefully offer skins or better tweaking of the GUI.

I do to, getting a little tired of this skin. But I change up the wallpaper now and then.

Do you think the Windows 8 skins might work on 10?

Good possibility.

If you have 10 on a virtual machine you could test it.
Slow as a VM is...

 

[Chuck38]

I have it installed next to my 8.1 copy.

But I can still hop back over to 8.1 and run it in a VM and see.

 

[David Bailey]

It'll probably work better when the final version is released.

 

[Chuck38]

Probably.

 

[David Bailey]

Stardock is seeing 10 coming & probably has their code writers working overtime upgrading their stuff.

 

[Chuck38]

Oh, you can be sure of that!

 

[David Bailey]

I wish the skin writers would exactly define what color did what.

"color 2" doesn't tell me squat what color is being changed.
I have spent many hours changing colors 1x1 trial & error trying to change a particuar color.
The authors need to quit being so lazy & actually describe what "system color 2" actually does.

I have Skin Studio.It freezes my computer.I have a slow cheap computer.
I tried making skins.
It's hard to do when you get a freeze up.
If I could make a skin the different colors would be well designed to show exactly what they were.
Not some dumbass "skin color 3" or some such bullpoop.

Done venting about the stupidity of skin makers.

 

[Chuck38]

That sounds really irritating! :shock:

Is this "Skin Studio" free?

Skin Studio costs.{i just installed it free}{again}
I think if you get WindowBlinds it is free.


SkinStudio Free Download - Softpedia

I'll be back.

It has a steep learning curve.

 

[Chuck38]

Downloading...

I'll fiddle with it and see how it works. Have you made any skins yourself with it?

 

[David Bailey]

No. The learning curve is too steep for me.
All I did was to change some colors.
You have better control of color changes than with WindowBlinds.

 

[Chuck38]

Hmm, can't use it on Windows 10.

That's a bummer...

 

[Chuck38]

No. The learning curve is too steep for me.

I'll go back to 8.1 and see if I can play with it.

 

[Chuck38]

Hmm, there is quite a learning curve!

I'll have to see if there are any tutorials out there.

 

[Chuck38]

Forget it! Way to complicated for me.

 

[David Bailey]

Forget it! Way to complicated for me.

I don't blame you.
It is right complicated.
