There's something about them that is really cool. They're simple yet practical and you're in no doubt to what the user does or likes, it is just like any other signature as it says something about the person, and it still has the capacity for creativity plus more as you only have a certain amount of room to play with; a skill is needed to make it 'work'.

Until Trickman's resurrected tutorial I'd forgotten what they were called which is why I hadn't come to them sooner.

Just goes to prove how brilliant and simple PDN is, good find Bob. I used to have photoshop 7.0 and half the tasks were three-fold steps compared to what PDN does at the moment. There were far too many options, effects, menus to cope with let alone need, obviously there is a need for all of them but come one, seriously, have Adobe really lost touch with simplicity?

Jake2K's thanks topic[/url]":beefd]...On a side note, I really love your new signature graphic, Myrddin. 15/15 for how clever it is and the great execution!

Thanks very much Helio! Didn't know it was going to be so successful.

I just learned something interesting about Windows Blinds file extension .wba. Its an archive like a .zip file and you can extract the bitmaps and stuffs inside it...

Just thought it was interesting...

Edit:

Yep, all I did was use 7z.... it was a supported archive :shock:

Hmm. WinAMP skins are the same way. They're just ZIP files with a manually altered extension.

Interesting. I've been wanting to get my hands on a few of the WindowsBlinds styles I've seen... :twisted:

Just for anyone laking common sense or sleep:

Don't use 7z's context menu to "extract here" to your desktop when your extracting a visual style...

My desktop was overrun with files >_>

On another note, when I extracted one .wba, I found tons of PdN files.

Not just you. Her av is gone. But it worked this morning...

 

The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.
Amy: But how did it end up in there?
The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.
River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him.
