Skinning Issue in v. 3.0.4.1185

Post by UssjTrunks »

When I set my skin mode to "override skin theme with Windows System theme" the player just becomes a grey box. It's still usable but it's very ugly, lol. This feature worked fine before the update (not that it was pretty then but better than this :P). I've tried reinstalling the update, and using different skins as my background, but nothing seems to fix the problem. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Thats just what the unskinned mode looks like. If you want skins back, you have to uncheck "override skin theme with Windows System theme" at Tools -> Options -> Skin, then restart MM

The player was white before, and you could see a line that showed you how far you could extend the seek and volume bars. It's no big deal, I was just wondering if there was some way to revert to the old one, or whether it was even a glitch at all (maybe the way I had it before was the glitch).

the old one was winamp style skin and is still there but wont work proper anymore as the non skinned skin,
you can trick monkey in to showing it but as i said it wont work anymore.

there are skins made to use that as one of the choices for skinning mediamonkey 3. and those work proper.
go to the skins pages and look at the converted ones if you want to get it nohitter151 made it look just like the other one, i added stars to it. but mine is not put up for download if you want it just send me email addy.

but there are lots of skins now out there, and dreadm has made an all white and blue one that you might like called eclispe white.

theres no lack of choices for mm 3 skins. :D
