Awsome, now I need to get someone to design the image for me to match the skin. Any takers? I'll send you a picture of my car which is silver BTW! If someone can do this for me and even take care of the above instructions I'll pay them through paypal!! Yes I'm lazy but I'm also very busy!!Quote:

Well I just got home from school - WOOT business COM is over and I got an A WOOT! Anyway Did some more testing of your skin in the car and on the laptop. I realized that im still running the jan version of roadrunner in the car which could be why some stuff is broken. I don't get the greeting message in the car and the RED speed indicator arrow is missing in the car. Im going to run the may version again in the car just because this skin rules! Also for some reason the GPS full screen exit script is acting up on me now. It was working just fine yesterday and I rebooted and now the litte grey window wont exit the fullsreen mode anymore - the script runs in the systray but it stopped responding or something. Anyway I just wanted to say again this skin is a fine piece of artwork, everything is clean and functional. This release definetly needs more configuration than most but then again its brand new and this is quite typical of a skin this advanced. Anyway here is a screener of my test laptop. The red arrow is what im missing on the carPC but I VOW to get it working and post what i did. Also i don't know whats up with the exit script but im sure ill figure it out. Thats enough talking i need to get back to software config.
this skin does require the latest version of RR, so any instability you may be having with basic rr functions may be caused by older version. This is why you dont get the welcome message etc.
i would also suggest makeing sure you have the latest version of flash installed in the car, the entire speedo on the bottom in the gps fullscreen is flash, so if its loading but elements are missing its likely a flash problem. Also a tip for your igmap , if you look inside of the lstools dir you will find a .exe file special for IG that will make your map look nice and clean like this.
@blk02si and anyone else having issues in fullscreen gps mode, there is a new version of LSTOOLS available, just redownload from same link in first post. This update only changes how the arrow in the fullscreen gps mode works, and also some graphic changes to the flyout menu and a few minor changes to other stuff. So even if you dont have this issue i still recommend to grab the latest.
LS, love the skin, been using it since yesterday and its great.
I had one question, is it possible to add a scroll bar to the playlist area. The reason I ask is becuase most of the time I just load all my songs in the play list and if I want to get to a certain song I have to keep clicking. I would be easier if there was a scroll bar thanks.
also can u add something that differentiates the end of the volume bar and the begining of the track bar?
LS, just download the new LSTools and I'm having a couple of problems.
When I open iGuidance and go to fullscreen, that button to go back does not work. after clicking it, it disappear and nothing happens. It just to work with the old LSTools. btw, I deleted KEYTBL since u said it wasn't needed.
when I exit navi, skinbedder and IGCONTROL does not close. So I still have the IG menu button in the skin. even after closing RR those two apps still remain open.
also after doing a mouse gesture in the navi screen, when ever you click a button the skin under igudiance show up for a split sec. the longer u hold the button the longer the screen shows.

Ill test it in the car tomorrow and on another computer thats never seen RR so that should let me know any issues.
One thing you can do for me to test something, go to the normal gps screen(dont go to fullscreen at all), then go to this folder
C:\Program Files\Road Runner\LSTOOLS\SB2.9\iGuidance and run kill.exe
The flyout menu button should be closed after this.
If this dosnet work let me know.
when you exit RR it should shutdown skinbedder if you have it set in rrconfig.exe to close all embeded apps on shutdown. The igcontrol isnt an embeded app so rr will not automaticly close this, thats what the kill.exe file is ment to do.
ill take some more closer looks at everything related to this issue and resolve it tomorrow.
Is anyone else having any issues with the latest ver of LSTOOLS and gps? If you had issues before are they fixed with the latest, and if you didnt have any issues do you have problems now?

I played with some other ideas of this before release but didnt like how any of them looked. I want to redesign the sliders to be honest, but its too much work for just a slider, u have to save out like 20 files, gives me a headache.
as far as a scroll bar for the playlist, not sure thats gonna happen. I understand ur problem though, i too sometimes load the entire playlist but not often. The problem i found when loading the entire playlist and trying to scroll through them its extremely hard to get to where u want to go with a huge list because small movements in the scroll will jump 20-30-50 songs
you know if you click and hold the up and down buttons they will scroll faster so you dont have to keep clicking over and over.
Hi LS,i'only just updated to the new version of RR and now i'm having album art problems (i've never had album art problems) but its not the skin,it was working ok until this morning.
The problem i get now is in the audio browser (similar to Picture 2 on page 1 of this thread)
Half of my album cover has gone missing!!,...Any ideas...it should be easy,its only half a problem.lol
I will add that the art is ok on all other screens.
this is a bug with the current version of RR, for some reason it seems to only happen to some people as all my album art still shows up. You can read up on it in the bug forum here http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/rr-bug-tracker/76142-highlighted-dirs-only-show-a-few-chars-album-art-still-borked.html
