[quote]Thank you CountryYokel for taking the challege. Ah, you any good at mud wrestling?[/quote] I am no good at wrestling, but I am good with mud, I was a livestock farmer in one of the wetter areas of the UK, so every winter mud was the norm, come to think about it, I was quite often wrestling cattle & sheep in the mud, but I am too much of a gentlleman to wrestle the glamorous ladies at Wincustomize!!

Is it possible for a male to join in with a blind? I have been going through a bit of a bad patch recently & not concentrating on the forums like I normally do, I saw this thread when it was started & forgot about it, it's a favourite trick of my memory, but it was one of the threads on the home page tonight, & here I am. It would be be one more entry for all the volunteering judges to judge!

[quote]Thanks to Xiandi, this problem with the colour of 3 of the text labels on the command bar in IE8, is now solved. The colour of the text of the disabled state of the toolbar button (6 state) has to set to OS Default which will make the text black. Thank you for sorting this for me, Xiandi.[/quote] gmc2 - I thought this was the answer, if you read through the post OldMsgt had 2 problems on his computer (1) was white text on the IE8 menubar & (2) thre

Thanks 2of3, all of my disabled state text is set to the same white with a black shadow on the toolbar buttons, as are all my white text settings that I can control but there are a few text settings which you cannot. As you can see in screenshots OldMsgt's computer shows different to mine, is this one of these instances which make computer's an inexact science?

butch123 - on my PC (Windows 7) & laptop (Vista) I do not have a problem with the menu bar just the Print, Safety & Tools labels on the command bar, which are not altered by the same text settings as the rest of the labels (toolbar button, 6 state) they are obviously controlled by another text setting which despite seaching I am unable to detect. All my white text has a black shadow, so should show on a light background.

Thanks, butch123, I am afraid that did not seem to work. OldMsgt - On my PC with Windows 7 & our laptop running Vista I do not have a problem with the menu bar, only with 3 of the lables on the command bar, on which I see you only show icons, as you can see in the screenshot.

I do not use IE8, but it has been pointed out that the text in the menu bar is too light & is unreadable aginst the background colour, in my latest blind (Tewl Crohan), when I looked, the menu bar is OK on my computer, but 3 of the labels in the command bar are plain white text, the rest of the labels are controlled by the text settings in the tollbar button (6 state) & are readable, the 3 labels cocerned are Page, Safety & Tools. Can anyone please tell me which text set

RedneckDude, there is no need to apologize, & I am sorry if you thought I have taken your comments personally, nothing could be further from the truth, due to my illness I find composing & writing posts very difficult & write the minimum amount possible, so that sometimes what I write comes over as very abrupt. What I was trying to do was explain why my Blinds appear on this site "back to back" it is because I do not do anything else, I think my Blinds are of a reasonable qu

[quote]There are some coming through back to back that aren't top quality[/quote] I thought that referred to me, not that it worries me. As some of you may know, I have an illness that keep's me virtually house bound & producing WindowBlinds is one of the very fews things I can do, so my blinds do get uploaded "back to back". Although I do not consider myself a top skinner, I do not feel my skins are poor quality. Perhaps someone could define "quality"?

Thanks, Cavan 1, I knew there must be a simple explanation, my brain does not seem to be getting out of bed with me in the mornings, recently, or that is my excuse, & I am sticking to it!

There is probably a simple explanation I am missing, but when I upload a WindowBlind preview image a moveable rectangle appears which is used to pick a portion of the image for the preview, my query is how do I get the full image to show in the gallery, as mine seems to be the only screenshots not showing the whole image. I have just uploaded a blind & thought if I did not move the rectangle I would get a full image, but I have a screenshot in the gallery which does
