These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. 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. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. 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. |

Windows Aero Theme (LimeWire Pro 4.16.2) Sup all! Just wanted to introduce myself a bit. I've been reading these forums for awhile now but this my first post. Instead of posting a useless first comment I figured I share a theme I've been working on the last couple days! I made it using LimeWire Pro 4.16.2. It has Windows Aero style colors and new images for folders, buttons, media player, search, ect. and the menu is a lot more visible. Basically anything editable was changed a bit. Hope you like it and any comments on things you like/dislike are welcome! Note: I haven't tested this skin on older versions of LimeWire but I do know you need a Pro version for this skin work correctly. I tested this skin on a regular version, old and new, and it simply does not work unless your using a Pro version. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- *How to install with Windows Vista: -Unzip the file into C:/Users/UserName/AppData/Roaming/LimeWire/themes/ If you do not see the AppData folder you have to unhide hidden folders. Follow these quick steps: How to see hidden files in Windows Vista -Once you have the files extracted in the the themes folder restart LimeWire and refresh the skins folder by clicking View>Apply Skins>Refresh Skins on the LimeWire Menu -Then select the theme! If the theme does not enable the first time then reselect it! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- *How to install with Windows XP: -Unzip the file into C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Limewire\themes If you do not see the ApplicationData folder you have to unhide hidden folders. Open up Windows Explorer (click 'Start', point to 'All Programs', and then click 'Windows Explorer') On the Tools menu in Windows Explorer, click Folder Options then click the View tab. Under 'Hidden files and folders', click 'Show hidden files and folders'. -Once you have the files extracted in the the themes folder restart LimeWire and refresh the skins folder by clicking View>Apply Skins>Refresh Skins on the LimeWire Menu -Then select the theme! If the theme does not enable the first time then reselect it! Last edited by NPS; January 20th, 2008 at 02:59 PM. Reason: Update - Windows Aero v1.0.1 |

can't download skin it says that i can download it and when i do it comes up as a htm. is there any way that i can still get this skin of yours? it's cool! good idea for vista too but it will not let me download it as is. thanks. |

i cant find C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Limewire\themes there is no "UserName" or "ApplicationData" or "themes" i need help i only no where "Documents and Settings" is. |

Well assuming your username would be Tonay123 the path would be C:/Documents and Settings/Tonay123/ApplicationData/Limewire/themes. If you don't have a user account yourself then you may be logging in as the administrator, so it would then be C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/ApplicationData/Limewire/themes. Remember that if you can't find the ApplicationData folder it's because it's hidden. You have to select 'show hidden files' option in the Control Panel. |

ok so i went to C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/ but i couldnt find application data, i also checked hp_adminstrator but i could only find .limewire i couldnt find themes. my version of limewire is LimeWire PRO 4.16.2 |

windows areo theme well i found where i am supposed to extract windows areo theme but when i do my limewire asks if it wants to copy and or replace limewirePro_theme.lwtp i tried both and all it does is come up (in the skins section) come up as limewire pro (2) and i see no change. is there something i'm missing? thanks. |

Tonay, you almost there! C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator is the right one for ya but you can't the 'ApplicationData' folder because it is hidden. Open up Windows Explorer (click 'Start', point to 'All Programs', and then click 'Windows Explorer') On the Tools menu in Windows Explorer, click Folder Options then click the View tab. Under 'Hidden files and folders', click 'Show hidden files and folders'. Now that you can view hidden files you should be able to find the right path! C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/ApplicationData/Limewire/themes |

Spunky, make sure your using a Pro version of LimeWire! Make a backup copy of the LimewirePro theme and move or delete it from the directory. Then extract the LimewireAero theme into the folder. If you've done this restart LimeWire or refresh the skins folder in the program and select the theme. If the skin doesn't change then select it once more! Remember it will only work with a Pro version! |

i just tried to delete the pro skin and it worked. but when i extracted the windowsAreo_theme, no change. i extracted the areo theme to the directory (the folder) and with it, right underneith of it is the limewirePro.lwpt itself. there is no lwpt that says windows areo theme.iwpt. it wont let me change the skin because the areo one doesnt even come up in the skins section in limewire. it only says limewire pro theme under skins and goes back to looking like the original limewire pro skin. |
