Graphics in the centre of a RightClick menu will always end up with distortion and inconsistency, even your preview pic shows this. After umpteen skins surely you have realized this, time to change the game. Maybe it's time to pay more attention to the frames you use and less to the quick turn-around graphics you paste into them.

I don't think that 'centre graphic' distortion [stretch] is all that much of an issue that it needs commenting on.

I first started skinning LiteSTEP around late 97 ...and the central focus of the shell is its right-click menu popup.  How the images were handled/resulted with 'stretch' or 'tile' [or both] was always simply personal preference.  There IS no 'proper way'.....

Well, I beg to differ. Some sub-menus I have stretch the whole length of my screen therefore the distortion is very pronounced and frankly any graphics in the middle look plain ugly. It seems strange to me that I've never once seen you make a comment on a RightClick skin before and yet here you are butting your nose in on something that really isn't any of your business. If Nimbin disagrees with my comments then let him tell me, your input was not needed.

buzz if you dont have anything constructive to add then maybe don't add anything at all. instead of just making yourself look good for all your little sycophant fan bois offer some helpful advice, if this is beyond you, then kindly keeep your comments to yourself and go back to your little world. as far as i am concerned this matter is now over. if you want to respond to me, then do it in an email

Nimbin...I made the same comment on one of your RightClick skins months ago. I mentioned that you were just recoloring the same frame and pasting in a new pic. You chose to ignore my comment yet you can respond to buzz ? Buzz and I both spend an entire day if not more on one RightClick skin. Both buzz and I have always helped anyone that asks. You never ask you just ignore the comments.

oh why did i know that the next comment i would get would be from you?. do yourself a favour and keep your comments to yourself. i said as far as i am concerned this matter was over and it is. Really i don't care how much time you spend on a skin, that is irrelevant, your suggesting that just because you spend that time on a skin then everyone else should. as for ignoring your comments, why wouldn't i?. if all you have to add is useless comments like.. oh you just recolour the frame then whats the point of even making it in the first place. Don't leave comments on anything i do again please, your really not worth my time.

Should of been a given that the next comment would be from me. I've seen you make comments in the forum when you feel like being ' uppity' so dont pretend your beyond that. As for Buzz's comment - he was stating a fact that pictures on an entire RC menu will distort. Thats pretty much why you see no one else making them that way. His comment was to the point and didnt warrant any reply except from you. At least you answered for yourself this time.

i would like to see where i have made these so called uppity comments you speak of. and as for answering for myself...why have you got yourself involved in something that has nothing to do with you. you are answering for someone else right now. i don't see that person making any more comments so why should you. keep your nose out of other peoples business and i would like to see proof of these forum comments i supposedly made.

Calmly and politely leaving this here....no part of Wincustomize.com is 'none of my business'.

My supervision of the site encompasses all of it, not select parts.

If I have an opposing opinion [or for that matter, anyone else has, it is their right and privilege to voice such.

Again, I repeat...if a skinner determines he is happy with the potential issue of stretch, etc with an image that is HIS perogative entirely.  If others believe it should be some other way they can comment politely that it 'could be better', but it is really all about the choice of wording....

Also remember, the skinner makes the skin for him/herself and uploads it to share with others, (well most do).  If one doesn't like it, then one shouldn't use it.  There are a hugh amount of skins I don't like for various reasons but I rarely post them.

Thats true Paul but I have never seen you in the RightClick Gallery which Im sure was buzz's point. I wouldnt have gotten involved in this but I felt Buzz's statement was not particularly hostile at all. Nimbin can make his RightClicks anyway he wants - but Buzz and I have spent a long time trying to get this program to produce skins that work correctly. If a windowblinds start menu was distorted im sure there would be 1000+ people to point that out.

That is true WOM...No one is asking him to stop making them his way. It was just an accurate statement/observation.

i cannot believe this is still going on, fairy have you nothing better to do?. i mean buzz has obviously had his say, and to his credit is not getting into this. isn't it about time you let it go. it had nothing at all to do with you in the first place but you stomped i and placed your unwanted opinions in because you can not help yourself. let it go fairy, it's boring now, your just rehashing the same old crap time after time after time.

I was replying to Jafo and WOM - maybe you should stop commenting - I was done. Trust me ...Buzz would comment if he felt he needed to. Which was the whole point of this. He made a statement - you made more of it than you needed to.

To end this discussion....trust me...just because you don't see a comment from me does NOT mean I am not here.

I, along with all the Mods are everywhere...it's what we do.

Sometimes we see comments which deserve a response...othertimes they may just be left to 'ride', but we're always here, just the same...
