I would like more of a Metro Version of this skin.

None of the colors.

Honestly the blue toolbar background gradient is hideous. Along with the purple blue one for the button colors. The text size in the lists should be at least 13px.

I like the control bar layout. This skin reminds me of the WinMatrix XP theme I made back in the day.

I hope MM can publish a Win8 app soon that looks good and functions better than Xbox Music.

Thanks, I also have ColorZilla installed in firefox, but you haven't any pictures with those rows in this thread, I guess...... :),
but I took a screenshot and uploaded it and picked the color #98D6EE instead of your's #99D5F1, close but not exact :)

the rows must be this :#99D5F1 and #B0DEF4
there are several free color picker tools on the web ,
where are very helpful for such things. :wink:

Thanks DreadM, I'll do that.

I would be happy, if you please could tell me the color code for the darkest blue tracks in the Now Playing and the Column Browser windows :)

maybe you could try a :font-color: or color: entry in "TR.highlight" I don't know if it works , but you have nothing to loose !


Thanks for your comment DreadM, I have tried both ways, but it isn't recognized and the black font-color with the purple isn't very good. Is this functionality normally
something there is placed in the VBScript-scriptfile and called in the .css file or how do you do this?

By the way, which colorcode should the even rows have?

Edit: I can make the highlighted track bold, but still not change font-color - hmm :-?

I can see, that you in the skin.css for MonkeyRok use following function:

Code: Select all

}
.playing{
   background-color: #5253B1;
   color:#ffffff;

but I can't get this to work in the CueReader.css. Do you know more about it?? :)

Thanks a lot DreadM for this great skin. I'm using it with MonkeyRok latest version 5.8, but I missed a Mellon skin for CueReader.
I'm in no way a skinner, but decided to try to edit the CueReader.css file, so CueReader can be used together with your great skin.

Replace the text in CueReader.css with the following text and you are ready to go :D Remember to make a backup of the original file. You can save it directly if you open the text-editor tool as administrator.

Code: Select all
<!  Mellon skin for CueReader >


<!-- Scrollbar -->

<!-- track background even tracks  -->
}
TR.dark {
  background-color:#98D6EE;


<!-- highlighted current track background  -->
}

The CueReader.css is placed in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\MediaMonkey\Scripts\Auto if you have installed the script as adminstrator. If you have installed it for current user only, then the file is placed in C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey\Scripts\Auto.

I decided to go with the green bar, because I don't know how to make the text color white, when highlighted. If I did, I had done so with highlighted purple bar (colorcode #5253B1). I have used the same hex color codes as in the Mellon skin. The only color code I missed, was the light blue color for the track background for even tracks. I used an eyedropper to guess this colorcode.

You are free to make your own colors and layout, but it would be nice if you shared it here :D

NB.: After you have replaced the CueReader.css file remember to go to Tools/Options/CueReader Settings to uncheck the "Show panel borders" and check all other options incl. the "Use external stylesheet ('CueReader.css') for colours".

Then I downloaded the MR skin and installed it. It automatically installed it to AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey\Scripts\MonkeyRok\skins. When I open up that folder, I can see the Mellon Skins. However, I can't see the MR Mellon skin from within the MR settings. I have tried restarting MM and clearing the MM cache. Neither worked.

Any ideas? Thanks for your help.


I had this same problem. I simply copied the melon skin from AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey\Scripts\MonkeyRok\skins and pasted in c:\programfiles (x86)/Mediamonkey/scripts/monkeyrok/skins and then enanbled within the Monkeyrok settings. Monkeyrok works just fine for me on MM4

hi, I'm still running free version 3.2.5 of MM and using Mellon-3. I love the skin, it's really fresh but the drop-down arrow on the navigation toolbar is the only bug I've found - http://db.tt/tpOWAHI6 (the drop-down functionality works, it's just the arrow is missing :-? ) Thanks

Thanks :) I think I have that downloaded but I'll doublecheck. something about the sleekness of the Areo version I like...minus the transparency.

Peace,

Great skin. The problem I'm having is that the bottom of the player is showing up as transparent; no color. This belies how it looks in the screen shots. How do I recreate the same coloring?

Thanks,
