Carwings v1.0 - RELEASED

**brandensin** · 02-10-2008, 02:37 PM

compiled fine... run exe... i got an error...

this line:
_GDIPlus_GraphicsClear($hGraphic)
complaining about $hGraphic being accessed without being declared.. so, I declared it as global... compiled it again... same result..

blk,
could you post the exe file?
what did you use to compile it?

thanks...

-----update---------
never mind.. it works... strange though... i didn't make any changes.......

by the way, pressing the button causes text to turn pink and stays pink

Sounds like you have not registered the GDIPlusWrapper.dll for road runner.

Run RR Config.

The menu flows much better with the skin now, the multi-color art just looked too busy IMO.

Only other thing I can suggest is perhaps go orange on the antenna level indicators, and remove the HD indicator from the top since it will never be active in XM.

Ok fixed the bars to correct size. Moved art to top bar and removed HD logo and recolored signal strength. I think It is done now unless someone sees something I missed. I added a hidden button for XMRELOAD, it is the XM RADIO label in the top left corner. I will post files if anyone wants them.

This zip file contains the XM files and a temporary main menu screen (until a new official version is released) with XM and radio listed. I removed mixer and changed the settings button to a mixer button.

I'm getting ready to put finishing touches on Movie listings I was thinking shouldn't we add a second menu page for the stuff that is getting added?

Will convert to Sirius for my use and test.

yes yes.. we need more land for goodies... If you allow me to share my humble opinion... It's a newbie's dumb idea... but still an idea..

This is just an idea ok,, don't get mad please

How about something like this, Just going with one screen instead of 2... kinda go against the whole idea of clean look presentation, but I am sure you graphic artists can do something about that... Now if it's too dumb, please ignore

I most likely don't know what i am talking about as I have no talent in art...

This looks really good! I'm giving it a try as we speak.

**andrewfblack** · 02-10-2008, 06:14 PM

the cleanest looking way I think is 2nd menu screen but its not up to me.

Here is a few Screens from the Movie Times I still have to do the movie details screen tonight.

Edit: BTW I removed the gray numbers at bottom of both screens it is just the theater number and movie number info you don't need.

if all is good now, please include them in your skin, i will remove the package now. the way it is now can be use without the need of the source.
heres the wait i was going to use.
