My guess is, your firewall is blocking Activate.exe.
[quote]What doesn't Irfanview do?[/quote] PNG with alpha transparency ..... :p (at least not the last time I tried it)
[quote]Sorry guys, I've been collecting all the fours - next week I'm going after the two's...[/quote] Sounds like an 'evil plan' in the making. :SURPRISED:
Yes. Remove the free version first, and reboot (back up any images/backgrounds/docklets you want to save first). Other wise you run the risk of the Plus version acting wonky.
Sorry, didn't mean to sound rude. Forgive me? ;)
OOPS! I just uploaded a wall in PNG format. Should I redo?
[quote]OK .... I'm used to calling and thinking of Raster files as .... well, Raster files. And, while I'd call a BMP a Bitmap ... I'd probably call a JPG a "J-PEG" and not a Bitmap.[/quote] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raster_graphics I also call BMP, bitmap, and JPG, j-peg, but I don't call PNG, ping, I call it P-N-G........ ;)
Without going to look, I believe the form says upload [quote]I could have sworn I downloaded some that were PNG, but the upload information says (or seems to say) that you are supposed to zip up your wallpaper as a BMP.[/quote] Actually it says "* Bitmap File (.zip)", not BMP. A bitmap is ANY raster image. JPG, PNG, BMP, TIFF, GIF, etc....... all are bitmap files. :CONGRAT:
[quote]Also, you are using a very old design, which is not what Cairo is being coded off from currently. The image that should be shown is here: WWW Link[/quote] Link doesn't work........ :NOTSURE: I would very much like to see the new look........ I'm not fond of the 'iTunes' look.
[quote]The text on the show names is most definitely not the same as on the tabs. When I change the fonts on the tabs, the text under the individual entries does not change.[/quote] The fonts are the same for me.......
[quote]Koasati, I was wrong about that font choice on the Misc. Tab. It does not change the font of the text under each entry. So it appears there is no way to do that.[/quote] OK, so you are using the "Show Names" option (right click tabbed dock > View > Show/Hide Names). Those labels will be the same as the tab font (OD+ Properties > Tabs & Styles > 'Adjust the font used for text on tabs') Using the Show Names option makes your tabbed dock bigger than if it's turned off (Hide Name
[quote]Also is it possible to change the font on the items (not on the tabs themselves, I found that). The standard font is way too big.[/quote] If you mean the mouseover text, open an ObjectDock Properties dialog > Miscellaneous Options > Label Fonts .... make your changes there.
[quote]There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."[/quote] Are you trying to tell me something? :p
Seems it's already been put back in the Mod queue.............I see Zubaz beat me to it.
[quote]The GIMP *can* be overwhelming. If you are familiar with Paintshop you can try GimpShop for a more consistant UI.[/quote] I think you meant if you're familar with 'Photoshop'.... GIMPshop is nothing like Paint Shop Pro.
You could very well be right Bichur, but to further confuse the issue, I just loaded an ObjectBar theme with a systray, and I don't see sdmcp, or trayserver in processes. :NOTSURE:
OD+ used to require SDMCP.EXE for the systray, but starting with the 1.58 beta it was no longer required. From the History text.......1.58 beta -Completely redone system tray mechanism, which is more lighweight and does not require any additional resident EXE (that’s right, sdmcp.exe will be a thing of the past :)) System tray will not currently work on 64-bit versions of Windows, but they do work with Windows Vista, including the new "Special" tray icons in Vist
Once upon a time, you could choose from several site themes. I would really like to get that option back. I miss my Universe Metal WC. (I got used to the new layout, but I still don't like the 'look')
I am smorgas of Borg ...... bon appétit :d sorry, that's really bad..... but hey!
[quote]Then add an additional OD Ultimate Plus (at a higher price point) which features beta releases.[/quote] Or... Plus costs no more than Ulitmate, but is only available to people willing and able to beta test.
The only incompatibilities I'm aware of is; 1. UM's titlebar buttons don't play well with WindowBlinds. They can't be skinned. They don't show at all on perpixel frames. (I find them unnecessary anyway) 2. Smart Taskbar will not be skinned on second monitor.
[quote]I think they were teenagers when I was a teen-ager. Don't htey have wives and kids by this point[/quote] Being eternal teens is part of their mutant-ness...... ;p
Yep, UltraMon is a handy tool for multi-monitor users.
The only reference I can find for GDM.exe is something called Geosystem for Windows. Try this scanner LINK
