These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. 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. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed.

There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. 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. |

 Brushed Metal Theme doesn't work on OSX 10.4 After upgrading to OSX 10.4 and installing Limewire 4.8.1 the brushed metal theme doesn't appear anymore in the 'view>apply skins' menu. I checked that the skin files are present in the folder 'library>preferences>limewire>themes>'. Changing the filename of the theme files makes the theme appear in the menu BUT results in a Classic Theme and not in Brushed Metal Theme. Before I upgraded to Tiger the brushed metal skin worked ok.  |

 no Brushed Metal option available for LWPro OSX v4.9.x Ditto with the several threads on the forums - I cannot get a Brushed Metal option to show in the View/ Apply Skins menu. The only OS X theme that shows is "Pinstripes Theme (OSX)". (I have tried the 5 others in the menu, including the so-called "metal" but it, and all others are Windows motif.) Lack of Brushed Metal skin function is under OS X Tiger 10.4.2, LimeWire Pro v 4.9.x (currently 4.9.28 which i think is the 'latest official' release). And I did do a complete 'clean-out' of last version before I installed the 4.9.28. Note - this is even though the Preferences folder / LimeWire / Theme does include a file and folder for "brushed_metal_theme_osx". It just refuses to show as an option for actual display in LimeWire Pro itself. (I cannot currently try under Panther, because I have switched machines, and only have Tiger OS for now). Note that Brushed Metal OS X theme DID work under my LimeWire Pro 4.8.1 under Panther OS X 10.3.7. So something 'broke' either with the Pro v 4.9.x or with OS X Tiger 10.4.x Is there some manual work-around procedure I can do? Because my Pro term is pretty much expired, so I don't think I will be able to wait to download a future FIXED version on my current paid id. (and the messages in the threads have indicated that a fix is on the to-do list...) Thank you. |

 A post from S Berlin is not often seen on the forums, but If he says he'll look into it I think it's fair to say he will!

| Sam Berlin post was from may. He is no longer a LW dev (since july). If you find that it doesn't work, post in the LW beta forum a new thread. If it's not there anymore (it shows in the list for me, but I have not the typical LW install), then it is gone because Brush metal look in java for osx is not as obvious (more buggy) than aqua -- Apple problem, as other things like NIO bugs and virtual memory leaks --. I'm an osx fan, but damn apple java is buggy. Ciao

| Don't you wish people wouldn't post in old threads!  the last time I checked the dates BEFORE I made a fool of myself All is clear now. I have tried to install Tiger and my ageing computer does'nt seem to want it, so I haven't hit this problem. The Brushed finish works well for me.

 Yes, time passes... but still's been good to get a better feel for the history of the issue, as an infrequent visitor anyway. The good news is that most aspects of LimeWire have worked pretty well, so I've rarely had any need to look into the support forums. Since Brushed metal did work on my iMac G4 Panther 10.3.7, LWPro 4.8.1, and does on your 10.3.9 with LW 4.9.28, but not on my iMac G5 Tiger 10.4.2, it is beginning to look like a Tiger issue. So, even this helps to narrow it down. Now, is there hope that one of the LW developers will be able to track down the particulars with this much good user feedback, and get Brushed Metal operating again on 10.4 Tiger??? Thx. |
