So you're going to rename it to a completely different font that already exists? And that everyone here uses? When simply a dash would have solved it?

There's atleast 5 themes released here this month that use LucidaGrande. X-Port, TDK, Puma, etc. Your font is a type1 Lucida Grande font. Don't you understand that your decision to use Lucida Grande.pfm for the filename and LucidaGrande for the fontname is going to make the system replace all instances of both Lucida Grande and LucidaGrande with your font?

I've seen the result, because I tried it, it is a mess.

Using your ill labeled font is going to break those themes.

>Man you're *****y. Give the guy a break, he worked his ass off

Ps:// Ease up a little. All I was asking for is advice, yeah he did work hard, and it shows. What do you think I do? leech?

:own: :own: this skin rocks :own: :own:

gr8 work stevie , cant wait for version 1.1

[sciphan]

Wouldn't simple pm's resolve all this in a private manner? It's not that big of a deal. If someone wants to change either fonts then they can rename the font and do some minimum recoding so the skin can recognize the right font. Either (or both of you guys) can do this and re-release. We're not acting like a community where discussion is needed, but we are being hasteful. We can find negotiating resolutions without the need to flame. Let's both settle and reevaluate, because typing while you're fuming doesn't solve anything but rather it gets other people pissed off without reasonable resolve.

Another Update

Browse Pane

I don't have a clue what I can do to fix the browse panes. How can I fix a bug that I can't replicate? I may have to get a few people to use a "debugging" version, or something, and see what happens.

Fonts

I have no idea about fonts. Binary suggested I use that font, so I did. I'm sorry if it's offended anyone, or something. In future, I'll just stick to good old Tahoma

Stress

I'm a very fragile person. I desperately wanted this skin (as a virtual extension of myself) to be liked. I haven't slept all night, worrying about the aforementioned problems (as well as the bugs that I noted in a previous post).

When making comments about my skin or whatever, bear in mind that, whilst I'm a professional programmer, this is my first personal project that's been released, and my first excursion into the world of skinning anything...

Ok, expect a v1.1 release some time tonight. It may, however, take until tomorrow.

[quaff]

btw, when i restart wmp, my settings are lost, but works fine if i switch to and from skin mode... is it supposed to do this ?

[mattyy]

oh, shxt, baby, super nice la :woot: :woot: :own: :own: (Y) (Y)

[dimensi]

oh my God, its happening!!

Thanks Stevie (Y)

[Unbeliever]

first of all Stevie don`t pay attention at the bad comments pple give. We are ALL greedy bastards

I`ve found a bug (not trying to push u, just mentioning it)

when i open my iTunes(should i say WMP9) i get this (in the pic)

but then i press browse twice and it goes back to normal (no bug in the list)

same things happens when i change the LCD part, it goes back to normal

anyway this is THE BEST skin for WMP9 EVER!

PS: No browse here either but take ur time, and don`t stress out, we might need u more (for great skins (Y) )

[Guest CyberWoofer]

(Y) COOL! :own:

:mr_cool:

[DinoJr]

For those who can't get their stuff into the 3 panels try adding them with full mode... it's faster too and easier...

you can admire the nice skin after you added all your stuff.

[Unbeliever]

another bug (sorry)

when u click on an empty place in the left pane it just goes blank and there`s no way to get it back except to restart the WMP9

also it doesn`t remember the position and size

i dloaded the new update for WMP9 in order to fix the bugs but it ain`t working >.<

my wmp version is 9.00.00.2980 on XP Pro, Radeon 7000 32DDR with Catalyst 3.2, very sorry to say this but for me it`s useless :cry: :cry: :cry:

[Fujita]

Very Cool! :woot:

The reason it goes blank is because WMP9's listboxes are, to put it lightly, crap.

If you aren't gonna use it, that's fair enough - one less person to whinge at me.

[Unbeliever]

hey Stevie please don`t be insulted since i didn`t mean to be mean. and don`t get me wrong, this skin is something i want more than anything! i`m just saying it has it`s bugs. i ain`t pushing u in no way, and i`m not whining, i`m just giving u some usage report. i do know that M$ has crappy software and that u can`t do anything about that. please don`t take it personal. if it`ll make u feel better i`ll keep using it even if it`s the last thing i do

sorry mate

Hi.

First for all, thanks for making this skin.

Its really nice of you to take time to make this for us.

Great work.

I have some small bugs.

They are the same as Unbeliever.

-Problems with the left panel goes blank, when clicking an empty space.

-The one with the white square, like shown in Unbeliever's picture.

-WMP9 not remembering the position and size

These are minnor bugs.

Take your time guys...

[Stevie BM]

I'm sorry if I'm snappy today, people - like I said, I got no sleep because of this, so I may be very short with people.

I'm taking your concerns on board, and to shut you all up there will be 5 .wmz files in 1.1 - "directors cut", "directors cut, alt-font edition", "OSX", "OSX alt-font edition", and "debug".

For all people having problems with the resize or browse panes not being filled, please use the debug version. With this, I'm more interested in the status messages you get than anything else. I know you'll all whinge about the fonts in it, and the fact that it still doesn't work, but that's life. I can't replicate the problems, so consider me releasing a debug version my official "public beta". You asked for it, and you've got it. I would like to know about status messages that you get using the debug version, but make sure you don't all repeat one another... If someone's posted what you're getting, don't post again - it just makes more for me to read, and makes the time it takes me to fix the problem increase.

Also, the alt-font editions will use a renamed version of the font, kindly provided by GillBates' friend via GillBates. Please note that this version is not the recommended version, and if you find errors in it, I don't really care.

[titoudoc]

thakns steevie, work great for me ...

don't stress you've done an hard work, take a little rest and to all the unhappy guy just think to whom does this job ...

[Arimatheia]

How to keep the window size?

Everytime I use WMP I have to adjust the window size and location.

[Stevie BM]

Read previous posts in the thread. It's a known issue which I'm working on.

Wow already an update.. thanks Stevie BM.. Although I wasn't having any issues with the original..

[Tobbz]

Status: Setting time state succeeded - When turning Graphic Equalizer off and on.

Status: Setting view mode succeeded - Hitting F5. Program resized(turned small again). left panel shows up again tho'.. i had clicked an empty space, and the left panel went blank.

White squares shows up again too(those shown in Unbeliever's post). White squares where "Artist" and "Album" collums should be, if the Browse panel was activ.

My english is bad, i know, but i hope you still understand what i wrote.

[Stevie BM]

Could you load the debug version up, and tell me the first status message that it shows before you do anything... That's the one I'm interested in. If I can get that (or, more likely, those), I can probably solve the problems...
