I decided to tweak some colours...



Now I need a blue browser.

PMSL - even the songs are "blue"

Blue browser code from EXPO:


<browser>
   <pos x="" y="" width="" height=""/>
       <colors background="transparent">
       <lists background="transparent" stripes="#325561" over="#00FFFF" overstripes="#00FFFF" selected="#0097C9" focus="#0097C9" text="#FFFFFF" 
         overtext="#000000" selectedtext="#FFFFFF" focustext="#FFFFFF" automix="#999999" livefeedback="#999999" 
         download="#00FF00" scan="#FFFF00" button="#FF0000" buttonover="#FFFFFF" buttonselected="#FFFFFF" buttonactive="#FFFFFF" insert="#2E2E2E" />
       <columns background="#325561" text="WHITE" />
       <grids background="#325561" over="#00FFFF" selected="#0097C9" focus="#0097C9" text="#FFFFFF" overtext="#000000" 
         selectedtext="#FFFFFF" focustext="#FFFFFF" stripes="#0097C9" overstripes="#325561" selectedstripes="#325561" focusstripes="#325561" label="#CCCCCC" />
       <toolbars background="#325561" text="#FFFFFF" iconbackground="#0097C9" border="#999999" />
       <info background="transparent" stripes="#325561" text="#FFFFFF" label="#5e5e5e" artist="#FFFFFF" title="#FFFFFF" />
       </colors>
</browser>
 
Sorted.....
 
now add a "S" for Superman and upload as a "limited edition"...;)
 
Oh, you mean sort of....
 
yah?...
 
Ok I see but you still have those stripes on every other track, those are the lines I do not want at all.
 
So you just make the stripes the same colour as the background (in this case, as the background is set to be transparent so shows the colour from the png).

Find the hex code for the colour of the darker lines (or the background) and then set the same colour for the stripes.
 
It change the stripes to "transparent"

ok,so how can we change this ?
 
You must edit the XML-File of the skin. Look for the Browser section:

<browser toolbar="yes" effects="yes" >
<pos x="9" y="518" width="1422" height="373"/>
<colors background="transparent">
<toolbars background="#101010" text="#cbc9c9" iconbackground="#000000" border="#999999" />
<lists background="#2E2E2E" stripes="transparent" over="#B3B3B3" overstripes="#B3B3B3" selected="#000080" focus="#000080" text="#cbc9c9" overtext="#000000" selectedtext="#ffffff" focustext="#ffffff" automix="#999999" livefeedback="#999999" download="#999999" scan="#999999" button="#2E2E2E" buttonover="#2E2E2E" buttonselected="#2E2E2E" buttonactive="#2E2E2E" insert="#2E2E2E" />

Set stripes to transparent.

thank you,but i can not find that section in the xml file,the only browser section i found is this one:



<group name="browser">
<browser>
<size width="1901" height="539"/>
<pos x="9" y="532"/>
</browser>
</group>

</Skin>
ps: i am a mac user

What you see is the default browser code. You can add to it by including the extra code.

See the image at the top of this thread (default browser) and then how it changed when I added the code which djtouchdan posted (next pic).

If that's all you want to change, you can strip it down to just:

<colors>
<lists stripes="transparent" />
</colors>

thnx,

Maybe you put it in the wrong location?

Which skin are you using? Maybe your skin has more than one <browser></browser> section, in which case you need to enter the extra code in each section.

If your skin has multiple XML files, make sure you wrote to the correct one!

You should insert the <color> tags in between the <browser> tags, like so:

<browser>
<size etc>
<pos etc>
<colors>
<your choices>
</colors>
</browser>

Just look for any line that has </browser> and insert the code above it. That should do the trick.
