Little tricky to get the hang of but once you have it down it really is invaluable.   

You mean you can colorize a skin and save it? As an additional skin?

Yep, it saves it as a sub for selected skin. When select colours tab and also trans and blur, click drop down where says Change settings for all skins, create new, create new again, name sub, create, close, then set to colour or trans and blur you want.

I see great things in your future Cavan1

i have always used that feature. i love it.      

I made a topic about this...but colorizing doesn't work very well when that tiny preview doesn't contain any colored bits of the skin with which to work with when trying to recolor it.  Would be nice if the taskbar preview showed all the states of the taskbar buttons, so at least when a skin (like WTM) only has certain bits colored, taskbar buttons are a likely source of colorized sections. Also wish the advanced coloring was more user friendly (ctrl + click on a color on the preview, shift slider, done).

Good points Steph.. Rome wasn't built in a day, keep pushing and maybe in future releases we will see it flourish into a wonderful acompanying feature, for right now, works well and very handy. Good job on the wiki and promotion.

Thanks Caravan1. I'm in heaven now.

I've been hoping for a little more detailed "how to" than what Brad did originally.

I have never been able to change only one item. Each time I try I end up with all the colors changing. There's gotta be something I'm missing, but since I've gone thru the instructions at least ten times I think maybe I misunderstand one of the steps.

I know what you mean Lantec, I could never get it working either (hence my "for dummies" suggestion).   

OT. I don't see the 'Use advanced HSL colouring' option in the latest version of WB6 (v 6.02.024). ?

I dont understantd the HSL coloring what is the difference and how do you use it? If you know how you should make an article to help us DUMMIES who dont automiatically know how to do stuff? I just hate that I was born with this CURSE!

Does anyone have a link to the tutorial on recoloring a skin in WB6?

I was able to get it to work correctly once, but can't remember how it was done vis a vis HSL coloring.

Everytime I try to use the eye dropper to grab a color it displays one thing unitl I let go and then selects something different . . . killing me.

I uninstaled and reinstalled the new WB6 via SDC and I still don't see the advanced HSL option. Whaddup?
