Skin called Aura?

By cordelia0507 Posted January 13, 2008 09:56:36

I used and loved a skin called Aura or some deviation of this. Now I want to install it on my new (Vista upgraded) machine. But I cannot find it! This was a brushed metal skin with transparent borders. A bit similar to the Dogma skin. Do you know where I can find it again?

According to this article, Aura came with WindowBlinds 5. Unfortunately, installing Windowblinds 6 deletes all the skins that come with WB5 and apparently they aren't in the library either.

OTT - What can't the Stardock skins that are lost on upgrades, get added to the library by Stardock since they are the author of those skins.

Oh that explains it! Thank you!
Any idea if I can use this skin in WB 6 - if so, how?

I'm sure you can use it in WB6 ... finding a copy will be the trick.

Ask Snowman, he has all the skins ever made.

Hello Snowman are you there? Can you help??

I uninstalled 6, reinstalled 5 - then rezipped the skin(s) I wanted into .wba(s)- then uninstalled 5, put 6 back - then reapplied the skin - works

I sure am, and I sure can, but.....
Though I have the skin I cannot send it to you. It's copyrighted to Mike Bryant (MikeB314).

What you can do is contact him and ask him if he's got a copy of it.
He's a good man, and I bet he'll send it to you.

You can email him from here: http://mikeb314.wincustomize.com/

Thanks both of you! I'll definitely will follow through - I can't find another skin I like as much!

I'll report back next weekend !

Hopefully Mike can upload it to WC so everyone can get it.

He'd first need to make it Vista compatible

That's weird...I upgraded to WB 6 and I still have Aura in my skins library!

Weirder still: Upgraded and lost aura, but didn't lose arrow or kol's vista. Go figure.

I believe that's because Arrow and Kols skin aren't part of the WB installation.
