Testing Smoothy
First of all thanks for letting me test your WB skin Smoothy.
About my Computer I have Windows XP Pro /SP2
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 1600MHz 1.59 GHz
1 GB of Ram
ATI Radeon 9550/X1050Series 256MB
I always have My Taskbar at the top but for testing I checked the taskbar at both top and bottom
At the top: Taskbar
All looks good except when moving from bottom to top it doubles the size have to restart or apply a different skin then go back to Smoothy for it to go back to normal (Single row) and the system tray is darker at the top then it is at the bottom but dose look better and the Time and Day is off set.
As for the animation that you have at the top of the start menu, is great. with the taskbar at the top I do not see the animation.
It would be nice if the animation would show at the bottom of the start menu when the taskbar is at the top.
At the bottom: Taskbar
When moving from top to bottom it doubles the size have to restart or apply a different skin then go back to Smoothy for it to go back to normal (Single row) and the system tray is Lighter and the Time and Day is off set.
Top and Bottom:
Have to have the task bar 3 rows in order to see the time, day and date and then it will adjust and put them all in the right place.
Screen shots will be added.
Thanks again
Would like to test the other two skins to if, you don’t mind.
