Just unzip in the folder:
c:/bb2018(or 2019/CustomSkins

If anyone have tried on bb2019 let me know.

Edit:
Then Right click in the chord-sheet area
click on skin=>(you'll see them if you have unzipped them in the correct folder.) and click on it for to use them.

Let me now if it's not clear because english is not my primary language...

Greetings Willy6996,

Both of the screen shots you presented look vary pretty. Here are clickable links users can use instead of the copy and paste links you posted:

+++ Good Old Days +++

[url= https://mega.nz/#!jgVw0aDC!Je9ij5UF5voUZGoP0xoUPrpBU_PjVVDaFnWeV0_RW8k]+++ METRO +++[/url]

I've downloaded both zip files onto my desktop. I unzipped both archive files and noticed you have sub folders for both Windows and Mac computers.

You indicated in a second post the folders should be moved to the Band-in-a-Box folder. Okay, then what? How does a user select which skin they want? How does a user revert back to the standard skin?

I have 2019 Band-in-a-Box. Will your 2018 splash screen replace the 2019 splash screen?

Hi Jim Fogle,
I have edited the second post who show how to apply skins.

For the splash screen it 'll show 2018 version only if you choose my skin but you can replace it manually with the 2019 version you have (located in the image folder)


Edit:
For unknown reason i can't edit the others post so:

Just unzip Metro & good old days in the folder:
c:/bb2018(or 2019)/CustomSkins


Then Right click in the chord-sheet area
click on:
==> display options
Then on the new windows at the bottom left there's a button labbelled "choose skin"
Here you 'll see my skins if you have unzipped in the correct folder .

You can revert back to default choosing simply "default"

Thanks for the links but something is wrong with the second one wink

So You have successfully used the skins?
Posted By: Jim Fogle Re: 2 New skins for bb2018 (2019) - 07/09/19 01:03 PM
No I haven't. Although I've downloaded and unzipped the files I am reluctant to test on a working copy of the program until I better understand what I'm doing.

I assume you are replacing default image files with files you have customized. How did you add a command under "Display Options". What steps is the command taking?
Posted By: Willy6996 Re: 2 New skins for bb2018 (2019) - 07/12/19 05:51 AM
You just need to make a backup of the Customskin folder so if something is wrong you can revert back without problems.

I don't add a command.

There's a button on the "display options" window of BB who is called: "choose skin" ,just click on it.

It show you how to at 9mn45s:

Hello! I canĀ“t seem to find the folder to install the skins into. I have no folder called "custom skins" in biab 2019. Is that a sub folder that I have missed?

C:\bb\Data\CustomSkins

They have added a PANELS folder now that lets you change the color under the full screen mode buttons.
When I made all the compact mode buttons they never had this so I should be able to make the same buttons for the full screen mode now but I can't find the background image for the rollover button (the light gray) the File buttons background color is big-panel-file.bmp:

I'll check cause all is customisable wink
Posted By: Pipeline Re: 2 New skins for bb2018 (2019) - 09/16/19 03:03 AM
Yeah, I found out there is no rollover image so I just made the background behind the icon the same color as the PANELS instead of the chroma key pink and 1 pixel smaller so it gives a boarder on rollover:

Hi Willy6996. Are the skins you presented above designed for Windows or Apple?
Posted By: Pipeline Re: 2 New skins for bb2018 (2019) - 10/26/19 03:46 PM
They should do both.
Posted By: Willy6996 Re: 2 New skins for bb2018 (2019) - 11/13/19 10:32 AM
Hi,
I have maid them on Windows if you look at the screenshots you 'll see win-titlebar.

Like pipeline said it should work for both or maybe some pic wil not work cause some are missing in mac version if i remember correctly but you can try them just make a backup of the old ones.

By the way i have checked and there's no file for the "over button"
