I downloaded cd art display. I fooled around with it and got the hang of it. as of right now I have the photograph skin and the Nike shoe box tag one. but on the shoe box one there isnt any forward /previous/stop buttons and its in black and I want the orange one. and also it does a slideshow of pics that are on My computer instead of just showing the cd art. any help would be appreciated.

The Nike Music players are for CD Art Display, download it, unzip it, place the entire folder here: C:/Program Files/CD Art Display/Skins
restart the programs and there it is.

[/td][/tr][/table]Did you download the lastest one I posted?  This one has the previous, next buttons, and the orange and black skins are there.
here it is http://bpm81.deviantart.com/
Once you have it installed, you should see 2 options in the skins section, <default> (black), and Orange.

To stop the Slideshow, make sure you don't have it checked on.
Right click on the cd cover, go down to cover and uncheck Slideshow
also, go to options, and make sure it's off there.
 
To the Mac users how do you guys get the clock, weather, music play ect? what programs do i download? thanks in advance!

Everything.

Co-sign...info on customizing the superbar?
customizing the superbar is pretty easy. customizing windows 7 is much easier than xp and vista because theres no need for windows blinds, or a program to run visual styles. you just replace the windows explorer with a modded version thats theme-able (not even a word)

go to computer > C: > WINDOWS > Explorer.exe  - and right click it.

once you right click it go to properties.
From properties go to security and click on the "Advanced" button.
from the advanced button, go to owner.
click on edit and then choose your administrator profile (or the one that says your computer name. for example mine says "Wayne-PC").
then go back to the main security tab in the properties (it should take you back already)

now click on the button that says "Edit..." (it should say "To cance permissions, click Edit" right next to it)

choose your administrator profile that you edited in the advanced tab, and click on the check box next to "Full Control"

save all of that, apply it, or whatever it will say.


now, we did all of that, just to rename it
laugh.gif

so now you right click on the explorer.exe and rename it to "explorer2.exe" or "explorerbackup.exe"

go to http://ap-graphik.deviantart.com/art/steelOrb-square-for-Windows-7-143789870
and download the steel oerb them just for this practice and place the windows explorer file that comes in that in your WINDOWS folder that your original explorer.exe is in.

restart your computer and its done.

now, if you want an entire customized superbar with icons, just make a shortcut on your desktop, right click the icon and go to "edit icon" or "change icon" or whatever it will say and change it to a new icon that is a .ICO file. it must be an ico file (as walways on windows)



If i didnt make sense explaining this (which i most likely didnt
smh.gif
laugh.gif
you can just read what the author of the theme suggested you do (pretty much what i said only, shorter)
