ThemeNorth Posted September 15, 2003 Author Share Posted September 15, 2003 bug?i dont remember this happening when i first got the theme, but somehow, i see it now after a couple days of use.. its the Compact Marine color scheme.. looks hella weird :wacko: I have no idea how many times I've said this but that is to do with the TN Blank font installation. If you used the installer it will be installed automatically, however due to a small bug which I haven't gotten round to fixing yet you'll have problems after you restart for teh first time. To fix that open up explorer navigate to your fonts directory (located in your windows directory). Make sure the TN Blank font is listed and open it up just to make sure it's correctly installed. After that re-apply the VS and everything should be OK for ever more! If you installed manually make sure that you installed the font correctly as well.

Smitjel Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 (edited) The download links aren't working for me...both sites give me a "file not found"... Edit: Tried a different approach and went to http://themenorth.deviantart.com and then downloaded that way. But then when I try to install it, Windows gives me a "VelvetWaves_3.exe is not a valid Win32 application". Any ideas? :huh: Edit again: Your signature link to getskinned.org works! Thanks!

ThemeNorth Posted September 18, 2003 Author Share Posted September 18, 2003 Both the wallpapers suggested are by Florian Freundt (aka Hermik). You can check out his gallery at deviantART. I'm sure a few others may fit as well. I'm working on a WinAmp skin for moss.

Long Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 (edited) Somehow the skin won't install, it installs to the directory, but doesn't show up in Options. And when I double click on the .msstyles, and press Apply, it comes up with an error, doesn't say any error number or message, just an error saying it cannot load the visual style.

People have had that problem in the past; I believe the cause was an 'old' version of the patched uxtheme.dll. Other than that I can't think of anything.

Long Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 Ah thanks, must have been one of the recent patches that overwritten the uxtheme patch. ^_^ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/97500-velvet-waves/page/3/#findComment-1177503 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just 1 request ... can you do a black or grayscale for the theme? I absolutely love darker ones. :happy: I'd like this too. How about a black scheme called "Shadow" with grey undertones? Or a black scheme called "Moonglow" with white/yellow undertones?
