Prindle19:
The actual mathematical formula is to sum the decimal color values times these factors:

(Red*1) + (Green*256) + (Blue*65536) = component color value

Man, where were you a week ago???!

Thanks for the explanation, it will make color matching a LOT easier =)

Prindle - I made Centrafuse-y looking skin based on your skin's layout. I removed some stuff that I'll never use, such as the "tools" and hide-channels, and add extra favorite channels options.

Here are the screenshots, let me know if it's OK for to post a zip with the entire skin, in case anyone's interested..

Peace!

Okay, here it is.

CentraFuse-style skin for FrodoSatelliteRadioX
================================================== ========

Info:
========

This skin is based on Prindle19's FSRX skin's button layout.

The color scheme and button style is intended to match the default
CentraFuse 1.x skin. I am not a professional graphics designer and am
new to skinning, so you may detect a flaw here or there in the skin.

I modified the layout for my needs, so the following items have been
removed:

- "Tools" button (to access to hidden channels and secondary favorites;
15 channel buttons on the main screen is enough for me!!)

- "Hide channels" button

- "Add secondary favorites" button

- Volume level indicator (wasn't working properly anyway, and besides,
you can see the volume level in CF itself in Window-mode)

- Secondary favs menu

Install:
========
Extract contents of archive to: \FrodoSatelliteRadioX\Skins\

Notes:
========

That's it! I find the skin useful, and I hope you do as well.... Peace!

Im having a bit of a problem trying to embed frodosatellite into centrafuse with this new skin. I have it listed under the radio path and radio name spaces and it opens up with Centrafuse. Problem is it opens up on top and the only way to get to centrafuse is to close it completely. It wont embed or open up inside the CF borders like its supposed to. On top of that when the radio button is pushed it still has the radio controls instead of the embedded frodosatellite. Any suggestions?

**Osiris** · 03-27-2005, 09:43 AM

Fixed my problem. It was two-fold. I had radiator enabled in CF settings and a file explorer window opened to the frodosatellitex folder. This confused CF into thinking that this was the window it needed to embed. Closed CF and disabled radiator and it worked like a charm. Thanx guys for the cool skin.

New problem though. If you are using the default 848x480 resolution then it chops so much off the bottom of the skin that browsing by channel (located at the bottom) becomes unusable. Is there anyway to add a button so that you could make this a separate screen or something?

**tj!2k4** · 03-27-2005, 11:05 AM

I gotcha.. sorry.. that is 800x600 stretched skin, forgot about the 848x480 res.

I originally used Prindle19's skin as a guide, which (for me) took the guesswork of button placement out of the equation. I'll have to take a look at what's involved with making a 848x480 res skin.
