i've grown fond of only using custom stars on the players skin.
and the old yellow ones on the theme.
makes for a neater way i believe to keep a cool player skin with a nice theme.

in other words,

i aint got that way rusty wrote down figured out yet?

That's really great but there is one last icon that I would really want to be skin-able:

You know the ugly mediamonkey Icon on the top left corner




Please consider it!

I remember reading on this forum that people where not quite happy with the look of
the MMicon when displayed in 16x16. And I think alike!

have you noticed the purple pixels around the icon... not cool either...

Please could you elaborate how this can be done. I have looked at the wiki at all i can see is this:

Rating (ButtonObject)
This button object is used for player-based ratings. Both Bitmap and BitmapDisabled fields need to be defined, where Bitmap is a “highlighted” rating star and BitmapDisabled is a “grayed” rating star.

However the skin i want to edit itunes 7, does not have Rating (ButtonObject), and i see no way to add an entry on the skinner.

Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Hm i think you want to change the ratings in the theme,
These are icons (16x16+alpha) Download from wiki/Skinning Reference/Customizing Icons, and edit
half_star_16.ico and star_16.ico.
If you run MM3.0 place them in MM icon folder,if got no icon folder creat one,
if you run MM3.1 you can bundel with skin.
