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?

Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 with some updates but WU is Disabled blame MS
PowerArchiver Toolbox 2015 v15.04.03Choose 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!

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?
-
It possible to add more ribbon to new PA 2011??
If yes, i hope the developer add news office 14 ribbons…
Thanks, cant wait PA 2011!..

: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

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.

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.
Current Skins
SmoothVista, SmoothLime, LongHorn, Slate & PoisonedNews
(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 ?
Help me please…

BasjYou are using PA 2006 9.6 BETA, right?
you need to set transparency properly I would suppose. I suggest that you download one of the new skins in skin section and check what they did.
It works fine there so I would think it would work fine with your skin as well.
-
:confused: err I think i cant get anything from those other skins since all of them are also using black text on white background….what I am tring to do is…red text on black background. If you refer to my attach jpg, it can be done on windowblinds. I am trying to go for the monocrome look… :)
and about the version i am using…it listed as Version:9.60.09(March,2006)
Thanks

basjnot a problem, it seems that part is not skinned.
I am more concerned about transparency - toolbar icons and in status bar - that works well in other skins (check colony, it has dar bg on status bar).
-
Can you check for me what is the date and version on: WBOCX.OCX and WBHELP2.DLL, located in your C:\WINDOWS\system32.
thanks,
-
WBOCX.OCX Version 4.6.1.5 March 01,2006
WBHELP2.DLL Version 1.5.0.0 March 01,2006 -
download Beta 3 and see if that helps. If you check skins section - Colony skin, you will see that transparency of the toolbar and status bar works good there, so you can investigate why it doesnt work in your skin.
thanks!

Your PA 2006 9.6 skin engine is too old you must download new/latest version for skinning:)
