I just want to give a HUGE-MONGOUS thanks to Hankers, Shelby & Philly, and the WC mods for helping me out with my first real snafu here on the site!  You all have been so patient with me and I'm truly appreciative of the time you've taken out for me!  

You guys rock! [e digicons]:star:[/e]  [e digicons]:grin:[/e]   

Seriously, folks...best online community EVER!

I'm not quite sure how I acquired them, but I had some nasty Trojans on my computer that forced me to wipe my hard drive earlier this evening.  I'm just now getting things back in working order so if you don't hear from me much this week, don't panic.  I'll just be trying to get my compy back into a usable state. 

Anyone have any ideas for a good (and preferably free) spyware protector or antivirus client?  I really like Ad-Aware, but I'm curious to know if there's something out there that might be better.

Thanks everyone!

Hey all! 

I'm trying my hand at a WB, but have run into a problem.  I'm following SKOriginals "A Complete Guide to the Start Panel", which is fantastic, but I don't know how to create an alpha channel in GIMP.  I also can't get the .tga files I do create to open in SkinStudio. 

Any suggestions??

Anyone know how to make the tiles overlap the front of the icon?  I'm working on some zoom tiles and, well, the concept is that the icons are supposed to look like they're sitting in their respective trays (it literally is a tray).  I've tried a couple of guesses, to the coding, on my own and can't seem to find what it is. 

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hey all!

I have an idea to make traffic sign icons (like a "don't walk" hand for the Documents folder), but I want to animate them, slightly.  What I want is for the icon image to change from one image to another when clicked on with a left click (the image would change from a red version to a green version). 

Any suggestions/help on how to do this?

If this requires code beyond my knowledge (I'm only familiar with basic scripting), and you know what I need done, you're welcome to collaborate with me on this. 

Thanks!

Hey all!

Not that I haven't been thinking of things to come up with for the new contest, but would anyone like to do a suite? I realize that suites aren't a category in the contest, but it would be really cool if a team entered in all four categories and won (I know I'm dreaming, but still...). If you'd like to come up with ideas with me, PM or email me (email address is on my profile). Thanks and good luck!!!

Hey all!

I'm working on a new dock background, but, in order to get the background the way I want it, I'm using blank shortcuts on both ends. There are different graphics on both ends of the background that I'd like to be shown. Is there anything in the text script that I can do to, say, write in that both ends of the dock be left with a certain amount of space before/after the icons?

Thanks for the help!
