Question about 3D Metal WB

I love the 3D Metal theme I just have a problem I am hoping you can help me with.(Don't want to give up the theme) I use the Avant browser on my systems. For some reason the theme doesn't effect it which isn't (much) a problem as it's the only one left out. However, when I use a menu selection such as adding new bookmarks the window background is the system white. Unfortunatly the system FONT is now VERY light blue that is with the theme (I dunno .. is the way it's working..LOL) How would I either go about porting the theme to include this browser or is know of a way that I can change the font color to something more in between to accommodate both the theme and the browser?

I can up pics if needed just not sure what to do.

OK got the files loaded onto another server I admin so's they won't take up space here.. but here's the layout..

This is what I get to try to look at..

But you'll see here that it isn't effecting the browser..

Just using this one as a reference point ..

Okay the moral to the story now that I've pic'd it all up...

The first pic you can see the menu picked up on the frame and the text. In the second you can tell the browser frame is unaffected by the theme. And the last pick shows that the theme IS working normally everywhere else. For some reason that browser is only prog on my system acting weird. It's a free browser available @ http://www.avantbrowser.com/ if that helps any. I think it's exploder based, but, IMHO much less buggy.. (just can't get the feel for Firefox or Opera)

I DO appreciate the fast response and ANY help dude I LOVE this theme and if this only problem I'll just deal with it but, would be nice to get fixed.

Thanx again.

while you're waiting on theAVMAN

you can use the per application setting to add Avant to the exlusion list (there's options for partial exlusions which should let you skin the outer shell only)

Kewl, I'll use that for now. I used it for my Photoshop as it uses tends to lock-up when skinned. But, (obviously) I had forgotten about that.

Thankz ..

OK I don't think Windowblinds skins that program correctly .

However as far as the font and backgoud color it is one of those trade off,s with a dark menu if you use a text color light enough to show then it doesn't show somewhere else always an ongoing battle with this .

So here is what I did I changed your font color to black then lightened acouple of menus to compensate I think it should be fine!

Hope it works for you

gawd I wish I understood this part of the computer systems. I love what some great people can do with it. But, sometimes it makes me feel like running servers and building systems is kindergarden shit.

I DEEPLY appreciate the help.

Thanx again,
