Firefox 3 Release & Stardock Site Compatibility
Jul 30, 2008 12:59

Firefox 3.0 goes final and is scheduled for release on Tuesday, June 17th.

There are currently known incompatibilities between Firefox 3 and many of our sites and forums. For the most part, the sites function properly, but have formatting issues. A specific example are the login & password fields to log into these forums. In Firefox 3, instead of both being on the same line, they are stacked vertically.

We will be addressing these visual issues in time. Please do NOT post threads on the forums pointing out Firefox 3 site issues. They will be deleted. We are aware of the problems and will work as quickly as we can to resolve them.

Until posted otherwise, the only version of Firefox our sites support at the moment is Firefox 2.

Skin called Aura?

By 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.

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