Skins no longer working

[7leagues]

Hi Nikos,
Since upgrading to v6.1.0.2, my XL skin has changed and no matter how many times I try different skins the default always displays. The small icons option is greyed out too. And yes, I use Windows Explorer to paste the skins and then restart X2.

I understand skins are no real biggie, it's just that having used the same skin for the last 20+ years, I'm used to it and have difficulty finding the icons I need due to their different colours.

did you update your skins for the new icons?
see www.zabkat.com/x2skin.htm

Yes, I have to replace the default skin every time I install a new version of X2 but after restarting the program, no changes are apparent. The small icons option is checked and greyed out so I cannot even uncheck it.
I wanted to attach a screenshot but this board has no option for that.

are your skin files 1488x16 pixels? (93 icons)
the small icon menu command is disabled because there was no large skin found (or invalid)

The x2skin_XL.png file is there in the main xplorer2 directory but its size is 4272 x 48. It is the same one I have always used. The standard x2skin file is 2976 x 32.

[nikos]

this is an old skin file that misses 4 icons (divide 4272 by 48 = 89 icons)
so you either edit the skin to add 4 new icons or leave the default skins installed by xplorer2

It's definitely an old skin file which I got from your repository. Are updated versions available by any chance?
Strange how it worked perfectly until the latest update.

[nikos]

sure, see the skins page to download an update

Great, that's fixed it. Thanks Nikos!
