Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 with some updates but WU is Disabled blame MS
PowerArchiver Toolbox 2015 v15.04.03
Choose to use “Windows Dark” skin, Go into “Configuration” and select “Highlight archives” change from Black to any other colour, click OK twice I think.
Powerarchiver applies the new colour to archives briefly but then returns to Black again!
Hello!
When I use one of the older skins of PA 2018 in the new 2019 version the progress bar looks pretty ugly.
It looks better with the new skins but I prefer the old ones.

I still have a fondness for the very old buttonbars to be found at http://www.powerarchiver.com/skins/toolbar/.
Up until (I think) PA2017 it was possible to use them with the more recent skins, but I haven’t yet been able to work out a way, or the right combination, to do so with PA2018.
It’s not exactly the end of the world if the old bars can no longer be used, but I’m curious to know if they still can.
I have had to reinstall PA 2016. I can now change to any of the included skins (Classic, etc.) but cannot use any of the downloaded skins (in the SKIN folder or obtained by double clicking on the download). Any ideas, please?
I just wanted to express a congratulations to PixelPirate, Basj and Conmandeco.
Also, I think all the skins submitted to the contest were great and I know PA users appreciate each and every one of them. Nice work guys!

Hi All,
Currently PowerArchiver 2011/12 hosts;
1 default Classic Toolbar and 20+ downloadable skins via website.
The user can also select 6 preinstalled Ribbon interfaces ranging from office 2007/10 with Black, Silver and Blue.
So significantly more classic old style than modern.
Do you as a PowerArchiver User prefer Ribbon or Classic?
:cool: I have to say without a doubt, Mr. Marc Foumbergs Skins are by far the best, most creative skins on the site! The others are good……but his are off the chain! Good job MARC! :p
Hi!
All the Skins that can be download seems to be for the classic interface of PowerArchiver.
Is it possible to create and/or change Skins for the ribbon interface?
It’s really not that important to me, I’m only wondering if it’s possible. From what I can see, only the color scheme of the ribbon interface can be changed (Blue, Silver and Back).
Kind Regards
Micke
I can’t see any way of accessing and downloading from the PA site the old button sets (Little One, Damas, Xp and so forth) which could be used instead of the default buttons if using the Classic skin rather than the modern ones.
Is there any way of still being able to do this? Not a real necessity but some of those button sets were really good.
Hi PA Crew!
When will users be able to download new skins for PA2007? in the new look?
How can a user create their own skin and upload it? and what program can they use?
Also are there any guidlines they should follow?
Thanks
I thought I would start and maintain a thread related to my skins. Since the site doesn’t maintain a “Last Updated” I’ll post news and changes here.
This is the place if you want to submit feedback, ideas and of course problems.

SmoothVista, SmoothLime, LongHorn, Slate & Poisoned

(i) Currently I am working on two new skins and also performing numerous fixes and enhancements to existing skins.
One issue in particular I am taking care of is the drop down arrow button located net to the Open button. I’ve managed to make it pretty slim in size allowing more space on the toolbar. So all skins will be updated by the end of the month.
(ii) Aside from one skin author who loves rating 1’s on all my skins, I have gotten some great feedback from other users! So regardless, I will continue creating skins and I am looking forward to any and all feedback.
(iii) Suggestions for icons and toolbar images. Icons are the hardest thing to do IMHO. Mostly because creating an icon that represents “compression” while looking different from other apps is a challenge. So what do you think?
Toolbar images. What do people prefer? OS related images? 2D or 3D? Colorful or ?
The skin I produced for PA was more than similar to JJ’s and I now realize that my actions and decisions were wrong.

Thanks&Best Regards

Hoping someone can help me with this problem. I am using SkinStudio to make a PA skin. My skin uses black toolbar buttons.
The problem is I cant change the toolbar text color. In SkinStudio its been defined as White and it previews as white. But when I run PA and test the skin the text is still black.
Any idea how to correct this? TIA
Just been to the new skins page and there are only 5 of them there. What happened to the rest of them ? if you go to the next page there are none there.
