Fairyy your work on the Rogue Proton apps were brilliant but now I've seen your gallery, they just seem on par, thats cos all your other stuff is brilliant also, awesome gallery, thanks
Po' - Hell hath no fury like an Evil Squiggle scorned ~ thanks for dropping by Noah... :)
Just stopping by to test my new Evil Squiggle Repellent...
hmmmm..seems to be working rather well...
wait..
oh my..
no...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooo
*gak
That would be easy, but, probably not as satisfying as making something new.
Impressive and fantastic gallery Fairyy~!!! congrats!!!
Trust me BK..I know how much work goes into a RC that has to be done pixel by pixel ( days ) ....guess it would just be easier to recolor old RightClick skins than bother making new ones.
Hey Karen, Thanks for checking out my Jungle RC, I know what you mean about BMP's, If we could use PNG, then my RC wouldn't have been so choppy and it would have been a whole lot less per-pixel work. Damn that magic pink!!!!!! LOL!!! :D
Your welcome BK..I liked them..very clever idea...
Thanks for the comment on my dishes, I'm glad that you liked them :D
Thanks for the comment Karen, I'm glad you like my SS, and they are still making them, I saw some Sponge Bob colorforms in a pharmacy :D
Thanks for the Mothers Day Wishes Fred and Wanda -
And " Hey " Cobra :) - I know I haven't been here much, guess I just lost interest in skinning - I'll still pop in and take a look around ( you know I always look at SS's )
Just wanted to say, "Hey"...haven't seen you around and kinda miss ya. Take care, my friend.
Hi Karen...just dropped by to say I hope you have a Happy Mother's Day! :)Hope all is well with you and yours! Take Care...Wanda
Thank you for the Congratulations !
Thaks for the comment, I'm glad you liked my SS
There are many of us who sincerely appreciate your work and your artistry as exemplified in this incredible gallery which displays your myriad gifts. Thank you for always being so generous and supportive. You are incomparable!
Thanks for the visit, I hope you enjoy all the stuff! :D
Just wanted to stop by again and say "HI" and thank you for the work on the Sea Jasper project. I truly hope we will see your fine work for a long time. Ed
Just wanted to say Hi and thank you for all your help over the years!
Just stopped in to say hi.
Waving back at you old crab !!
Hmmmm....just rummaging around in your stuff...seeing what I might ... snick; er ...borrow.
JIM Thanks for the ' Drive by ' :)
BK - Glad to help you , email me anytime as Im not going to be here as much but I do check my email a few times a day :)
ANGUS , thank you :)
Hello Karen, Just thought a drive by hello was in order. You Rock!
It's me again, I just wanted to say thanks for all your help and your patience. I hope I haven't been too much of a nuisance, I only bothered you because your one of the best! so I assumed you could help me, and you did, Thanks again.(WARNING!) the following contains embarrassing newbie statements: I didn't realize that I had to put it into a zip.
Hi Karen. Just wanted to thank you here on your site for all the great work you do. The Zig Zag accessories are so cool with MJ's blind.
BK13Garbageman:
Im not sure what you mean that your 'having trouble uploading the menu skin'
Explain more...
You can email me if you like..once I log out of WC I dont usually come back until the evening or next day.
Just click on the email user link.
Or explain here if you prefer.
Thanks for all your help, and all your wonderful work, and I think a flamingo would look nice.
I just got all your zig zag stuff, I see why you've been so busy, I figured out the separator, but I'm having trouble uploading the menuskin, any advice?
bk13GarbageMan:
Sorry to hear you had PC prob.
As for the separators, I don't usually use them..but its just a matter of taste. Sometimes I just make short separators that are centered - or you can make them the entire length of the RC. I prefer just a blank space so I make my separators invisible.
WAVING back at you TC - nothing like a tacking pink flamingo in the garden ... its a must have!
Hi, it's me again, any advice, tips, or tricks for separator width?
*waving* So, you like flamingos too? I have some fake ones I put out in the summer, and three plush, and a couple of wooden ones and a flamingo bubble light from my sister!!! And thank you for all of your comments Karen, I really appreciate them!!! *huggles*
Thanks for the help, I didn't mind the wait, turns out I was having system problems because I tried skin tool. A few restore points back and some reinstalls later, I'm back in business! Thanks again, time to learn those margins!
bk13GarbageMan:
Sorry I didn't get back to you but I hadn't logged back in until now.
Have you looked inside the RightClick folder in your program files ? Inside the folder there is a " Skin Tool "
Its a good tool to start out with ...makes skinning the RC easy until you learn the margins etc on the ini pad.
It's me again, I figured it out, for the most part anyway. sorry to bother you.
Hi, I'm new at all this skinning and I really like your work.I was wondering if you could tell me how to make a RC skin if you don't mind, and if you get a chance.
Hi Angus...If I get time I'll try to make something to go with the Good Luck RC. I made the Dragon Rainlendar set but I can't upload it until I get permission from Stardock Design.
Hey Karen! Any chance that widgets and rainys will be on your list to go with the Good Luck RC? Love the Dragon work. Keep it coming!!!!
Hi, Fairyy! :) I just stopped by to say Happy Easter! All of your work is outstanding, and I thank you for your support! BTW, my grandson is doing great...Wanda :D
I hope you like the way I showcased your Amphitrite art in my recent SS -"Passionate". It's a plain and simple ScreenShot but I wanted to do something that was more functional and yet artistic. It would please me greatly if I knew you approved of it and liked it...since I was thinking of your previous (perfect) screenshots as I constructed it. Thanks for all your support...you are wonderful to review all the screenshots as you do.
Hi Fairyy:) Thanks for the explanation. The meaning is as awesome as I imagined it might be. I do calligrphy (before I got addicted to desktops!LOL), and I notice letters and words-from a visual and literal standpoint. Also, thanks for the congrats on my new Grandson! I can hardly wait to see him. My son emailed several photos, so that will have to suffice 'til I fly to Austin to see him. He came in at a healthy 8 lbs.2 oz! No blessing in the world compares with grandchildren!

If you check BuzzH58's WC Site: (http://phuture-design.wincustomize.com/ ) you will see he has same motto " Kia Kaha "
He and I have been friends for many years , long before we came to WC.
Kia Kaha " Stand Strong " is and old Maori saying.
You stand strong when faced with adversity :)
Waiting Impatiently,And thank you in advance.
Hi, Fairyy:) I'm just curious about "Kia Kaha"...It has a nice "ring" to it. Intriguing...
Wanda ( Vistory ) Congrats and I'm glad you received my email. Your welcome.
Thanks Scottish , Kinger, and Angus and Vervi.
Im working on the Rainlendar now Kinger :)
Wanted to say thanks for all your contributions to Wincustemize. I agree with PeterDudeJim, post your No Load Limits Widigets. And Please make a Rainy for Dragon
Hi, Fairyy! Thanks for sending the Book Icons! I appreciate it. Sorry I was so slow getting back to say thanks. Actually my time on the computer has kinds been hit and miss lately. My son and his wife just had a baby today, and I'm so excited! Sadly, I live 1500 miles away and haven't gotten to hold him yet. I'll be flying there to visit in a couple of weeks. Anyway, I've been joyously distracted lately. I'm a huge fan of your designs. BTW, I love your "friends" saying you included in your e-mail. And it goes quite well with your Fairyy design! Cheers . . . Wanda
Hi Karen. Just popping in to say thanks so much for all the great past, present and future work. It's appreciated very much.
Thanks for offering to send me the Book Icons in your Amphitrite SS! Please send to disciple AT srt DOT com. Thanks!
Starree
I will mail you that wall in the morning :)
Hello, I'm a current fan of all your wonderful work. I recently downloaded the wallpaper blackmagic and I saw your current desktop. The girly version is excellent. Can you please email (le.joseph@sympatico.ca) me that version since your not uploading it.
Thank You.
Again,keep up the great work
TecNeek :
The folders with the pics and notepads are the actual Rainlendar skins. All you need to do is unzip those skins to The Rainlendar Skin folder in the directory that you installed the Rainlendar program to..
(Usually C drive > Program Files > Rainlendar >
Skin Folder)
Once you unzip the file to the skin folder then close it and open up Rainlendar...Right click on the Rainlendar and select " Skin " and a list of your skins will come up for you to choose from.
If your using Rainlendar 2 - you unzip to the skin folder in Rainlendar 2
Hope that helps :)
Hello, I`m new to this. I just recently downloaded Windowsblind, and got my desktop downloads to install, Work and show up properly. Now I just downloaded Rainlendar 1 & 2. I have been downloading many windows so i could customize my calender,events etc. I don't know what to do or where to put them after I unzip them, I always get a folder with all kinds of pics and notepads...Can you please help me Fairyy
I would greatly appreciate it Thanks.

Thanks for your comment on the "Hair" wallpaper. Glad you like it!
Fairyy!...if you have the time I would appreciate you viewing my recent SS called "Artist's Sunset". It's more artistic than most of the normal SS ((I even use a Renoir)...and when I think of artists, I think of you and know you will be honest in your appraisal. Thanks!
Hi Fairyy~
Thanks for the nice comment on my clock widget! :)
TSA...dont feel foolish, your not the first nor will you be the last that didn't know about the skin config.
Glad I could help...
haha holy cow, I didn't even realize that was there.. Geez I feel like an idiot now. I was so used to making OD themes. haha thanks for the heads up! http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Smile.gif

TSA..
Instead of just using the ini pad to make your changes etc.
Right click on the Rainlendar > Skins > Edit current skin ( that is at the top of your skin list )
There you will find an easier way to configure the rainlendar. I really dont know what those extra number are in that font line. I use the skin config > days tab when I make changes.
Also , if you use the skin config ...all colors are RGB there so you dont need to worry about changing the ini pad and reversing the numbers. Applying changes there automatically changes the ini pad .
Two short questions to begin (btw, skinning using the old .ini style)
1) What are all the extra numbers given here:
DaysFont= 12/0/0/0/700/0/0/0/0/3/2/1/34/Arial
2) If I am understanding the coloring scheme correctly, can you only use web safe colors? and do they have to be input backwards?
Ex: 3399ff is a light blue(when checking in photoshop), but it has to be put in the .ini file as ff9933 to show light blue, 3399ff actually shows as orange.
Sure TSA ...just send me an email if it will require more than a few sentences. I'll help you if I can..
Bazzie...I told you long ago that I don't have any tutorials to explain how to make an Avatar. You need a good graphics program and just experiment with making something you like - just remember to resize it to 50x50 to see what it looks like because when you upload it WC will resize it if you don't.
Hey Fairyy, I had some questions about skinning Rainlendar and Messiah1 informed me that you would the one to talk to. So with that said if you have some free time could I possibly bother with a few questions? (I wont ask any until you say so).
Thanks Fairyy~...that answers my question.
Cobra...you dont need to do anything to a link when you put in in the details of your Screen Shot or skins. I just have everything ready on saved notepad.
Example:
Rainlendar by Fairyy~:
http://fairyy.wincustomize.com/
You just leave it as is ...the site will change it to the links that you see.
Fairyy~...if you don't mind my asking...it's easy to put a link in the comment section of a SS, but I think most people don't know how to put one in the description upon posting. Am I correct in assuming that to do so, you have to highlight the entire URL, including the http// address, and then copy it to the referenced item. Is that correct? Thanks for your time!!! :)
Thank you for the nice compliment Angus , and nice to 'meet' you :)
Just dropped in to say "HI" Karen. MJ and I have become good friends as we live very close. The works done by you, MJ and Buzz are absolutely beautiful. You are all an inspiration to new WC members hoping to learn this ART,and especially those of us who might have thought only the young hot shots could do this.
Hi Fairyy~,
I am so sorry to have bothered you with this SS. I pulled it as I was not satisfied with it and felt it did not represent you and jazzymjr's work very well. I'm a perfectionist and sometimes a SS just doesn't work and it pains me to see it everyday. I apologize for wasting your time...thank you for responding though, I appreciate your time and consideration.
Hi Fairry~...used your Hearts Afire RL and Weather Widget in my recent SS along with jazzy's WB. I wanted to have fun with this shot and I wanted to do something NOT related to Marvel Comics :)
Ya,you are right its not so easy.And buzz58 is doing a great job by making all those nice effects manually....I will keep trying and thx for everything.its really nice that you answered.THX and bye
Well ddelia..its not as easy making stuff this way. Photoshop is probably easier. Buzzh58 is the wall maker , I am not that good at it. His effects are all done manually. There is not ' button' to just push to get the effects he achieves. But, play around with photoshop a bit and just test the different effects. :)
I didnt know that these programs can do so nice walls....good job!!!
THX...sorry for my questions but can you tell how you made the glossy or shiny look on the wallpapers (lonely rose for example)and which program you used for it.
THX again and hope I didnt bother you.Bye
I use a combination of programs..Paint.net , photo Filter Studio and a few others.
thank you for the answer...but i do have one more question. If its possible can you tell me what program you are using.I really thought its photoshop...:) THX again and bye.
Hi ddelie - I just answered you on buzzh58's Guest book..he is away at this time so I am answering for him. I do not use Photoshop so Im not familar with the tools of that program.
hi I like your work very much its great...I am wondering how you made that shiny look on your wallpapers and if you would tell me I would be more than happy...it looks so great...I asked buzz58 also but he is currently not online..unfortunetly..
