Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed.

Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

File_Girl71 Thank you very much for the skins, not really sure if I'm gonna use any of them (I'm such an infrequent user of Frostwire) but I do appreciate your selfless act for the Frostwire community. UK Bob Last edited by ukbobboy01; March 9th, 2011 at 01:35 PM. |

Thanks ukbobboy01! I thought that could be a good ide, since FW does not have all the nice skin like LW have...I do not use p2p apps that much either any more as I did... Thanks for your kind words ukbobboy01!!! Btw I have added a screenshot of FW with a LW skin I fixed...The main thing is I have to ask the creator of this lovly nice skin for permission to use with FW since it was created for use with LW!!!

I've created a Version 2 Skin installer and an installer for MacOSX users of FW 4: FrostWire and LimeWire Skin installers (MediaFire), or FrostWire Skins Windows and Linux (Filecloud), FrostWire Skins OSX (Filecloud). I've collated some more skins from the following sources:. 1. The skins File_Girl and I collated a couple years ago she divided into two groups, half for LW half for FW. So now I'm making the other half available for each of LW and FW users. All skins have been adapted for FW where needed including logos, etc. 2. A few skins from the LW4 clones. (4 skins) 3. Some custom skins from FW skinners (thanks to Wyrdjax for his 17 skins and great artwork. Thanks to Cootmasters for his bright works and 7 skins.) 4. Since some people might not have the basic set of skins as someone noted to me, I have also included some of the original skins. Thanks to all the artists and their generosity for sharing their works. (LW 4.12 only came with 5 skins for example. Some were packaged with no extra skins.) 5. I have also included some of my own slightly varied skin versions and one fully custom skin. I have packaged all the skins together for MacOSX and Linux users. Windows skins are MacOSX and Linux compatible. Though MacOSX's couple of default generic skins are not compatible with Windows. This is my first ever list installer for MacOSX. Linux skins are packaged together. You can choose to install all the skins or select just the ones you want. * Advisable to choose custom install. Reason is the Skins menu will only display as many skins as your monitor screen's resolution height allows. So check the skin sample images out first before you install. I estimate a total of only between 35 to 75 skins will be able to be viewable in the Skins menu. You can check the sample skins here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/limewi...le-images.html to help you choose. (There are a few skins I have not given samples for because I kept getting different results on different Windows versions and FW or LW. Their mystery will remain with your curiosity.) To reiterate the advice in the first post, sometimes a skin will not load first time you select it. Choose Refresh skins from the Skins menu and choose the skin again and it should change properly. As a point of reference for the installers and which skins, File_Girl71's FrostWire-Skins installer No.1 installer includes the following skins: abstract theme, . black lt, . blue skies, . brushed metal theme, . charcoal theme, . grey skies, . gtk theme, . lime rickey theme, . metal theme, . orange and grey theme, . orange peel, . sky theme, . teal deal theme, . vista grey, . winter theme. The skins File_Girl originally packaged for LW back then and are now available in the Version 2 installer for FW are listed here half way down my post. All other skins listed on the samples page are included in the FrostWire Skin-Installer-No.2.Win installer (about 80 skins). Both versions are included in the MacOSX installer (100 skins) and the Linux skins package. Creating my first 'full' skin as a total novice called "LOTR Ult", I initially based it off the Ultimate theme but you will notice it has very notable differences. My emphasis was on easy to read text and obvious highlighting of text and menus. The logo was intended to look as though a 6 year old wrote it with unevenly sized and angled letters. I could have redone it more exaggeratedly but decided to leave it as it is so the logo itself does not make people feel uneasy by the intended awkwardness of it. . . The weak point in the skin which fails miserably is the download progress percentage number. This is difficult to read until the progress bar reaches 50%. Despite this, I hope you at least try the skin out to see what you think. Totally customised icons for player and a few other specific icons. Customised program icon, logo and search animation. 3/4 way through doing the icon reminded me of Dark Side of the Moon for some odd reason. Watch it for long enough and you might get the idea. Been using LW since about 2002 yet this is my first skin design as a novice 11 years later. Skinners note: Most experienced skinners will already know these points: - It seems if you use a pre-made folder for the contents of the skin, LW or FW will error when opening these skins. The error will be "Out of Date" skins. Also the contents of the lwtp/fwtp will be within a folder of a folder. (I'm guessing this problem started with the later FW & LW 4 versions.) The answer seems to be not using a pre-made folder. Instead, simultaneously select all the items you are intending to include with the skin and zip them. Then name the zip as your skin name with the lwtp/fwtp file extension. - No spaces in the skin name, use underscores if you need a space. Capitals are not necessary as LW/FW will automatically capitalise the first letter in the skins menu. - Changing file extension problems: I have had problems changing file extension on both Windows 7 and MacOSX. The system still sees the file as being a zip and has a hidden zip file extension regardless of the change you made. Renaming the file extension works fine in Windows XP. - To change the program name (logo): LW Basic, FrostWire and the LW clones use logo as the filename of the image file. LW Pro uses lw_logo instead. So I packaged both of these with the LW skins at least. - You can change the search icon in FrostWire but only LW versions prior to 4.18. (spinning lime when a search starts.) You can change the lime.gif (an all search icon and a library icon) in LW but not FW. - The Splash screen can only be changed for both LW and FW versions prior to 4.16. Wyrdjax, a previous FrostWire skinner has a fantastic skinning guide here Wyrdjax's Skinning Guide |
