Determination Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 I don't think the counter is working properly. (I dl'd a skin to check, and the counter moved not.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osm0sis Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 i think it's the caching problem i've been talking about.. try emptying your cache and refreshing.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Yeah looks more like a cache problem... works fine on my end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Determination Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 aye, works like a charm now. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osm0sis Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 maybe it'll get some attention now that it's not just one person reporting it. it's can't be entirely client side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosblade Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Firefox caches really aggresivly now that firon\hubert added cache-control to the html\php header. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 If it saves the bandwidth and database connection headaches, I'm all for it. I can live with refreshing manually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoicJester Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 can someone tell me why the preview for my tab set looks weird on the skins page? it looks fine in µTorrent, but it's got weird outlines around some icons on the skins page.edit: the tab set is crystal svgedit 2: i looked through the thread and reuploading gimmicky stuff seems to be the general cure or whatever, so i did that. didn't make any difference.

Ultima Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Probably has something to do with the image format (what kind of transparency in the BMP)...? I *think* I recall this type of problem happening before... don't remember solution. Determination, or someone equally knowledgeable in this area?

StoicJester Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 i used gimp to set pink as the transparent color, then put my icons on top of that, then saved as a png and used alphaconv to create a bmp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Determination Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 you need to save the file with no background whatsoever. This makes the semi-transparent edge blur to whatever is below, not a specific color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaV Posted March 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 New version of Skins Browser out!What's new:- Categories are separate now- Loading time is twice as fast- Much easier and faster edit/delete dialog- Sortable columns (click on column header to sort the skins)- Cache problems *should* be gone as wellPhew, that was quite a lot of work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allied Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Nice layout. Tho, with the graphics in 1.4.2 you hardly need to change anything.Anyone else find it ironic that the top 2 toolbars are based on the top 2 torrent clients(excluding utorrent of course).

Determination Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 aye, and many other popular ones are freely available icons packs. It's hard for us designers to make new content when we have to compete with large open source icons sets like Gnome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boo Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 I think that category 'Program Icons' and 'Tab Icons' should switch places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoicJester Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 you need to save the file with no background whatsoever. This make the semi-transparent edge blur to whatever is below, not a specific color.thanks for the info. i've edited the file. it hasn't changed on the site, but i think i need to give it some time to change it. i'll check later.

osm0sis Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Stoic: it does it right away, try clearing your cache and refreshing.edit: er wait, MaV said the cache problems were fixed... so i dunno. good work MaV though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hofshi Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 MaV: I really like the new layout, but why have you taken away the option to sort by "date added"? It was asked by a lot of people in the past, and I really miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaV Posted March 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Yes, I know, it's because I can't find a place where it should go. The skins are now sorted by the columns, and new one won't fit there, there's too little space. Any suggestions ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hofshi Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 add a link on the side to "sort by date"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
