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…would like to know if it is possible to skin the main window to be other then white after the list of compress file list are shown? :rolleyes:
shot1.jpg show the main windows b4 it load anythings.

Thanks.

Can I/we please, please, please have the option NOT to use the tab titles in ALL CAPS like Office 2013 please?
there seems to be white bands on some of the borders for this theme, can that be fixed for the next update?
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
My Skins: Updates & Discussion
-
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 ?
-
We all appreciate your work Mark :-).
Every new skin you do is better than ever. -
Thank you! I also see that myself and other skin authors had their ratings adjusted. I’m sure they appreciate it as well.
This weekend hopefully I can release my latest work. “FrostBite”. Its a blue theme with bright colors and gradients.
Its optimized to allow PA to load faster on launch. So far it out performs any skin I have made thus far. But we will see how it performs for other users ;)
-
cant wait :-)

I really do enjoy all you skins. Some more than others, of course. I think Poison is really great. That is the first skin that I haven’t had to change the toolbar icons for. I do however have that skin greyscaled, which looks really good. I like the green look (a la SmoothLime) but there’s just something about grey…I do appreciate you fixed the previous archive button; that was driving me nuts. It was just wasted space.
Also, don’t worry about abviously overcritical rankings. Anyone that has used one of your skins knows they are among the best.
I never thought I’d say this but…I hope I get frostbite.

MarcFOU,
imao, your Posined skin for PA is a duplicate/rip off of the NVIDIA WindoBlinds theme which is available at nZone, but do correct me if I’m wrong.
-
Yes its heavily based on the NVidia theme. Many of the graphics were tweaked and adjusted, while other images were re-created to match the theme.
The skin was supposed to be an exact duplicate so it could be used with the NVidia VS and WB. Copyright of the NVidia name prevented me from using it. So it was renamed.
-
I never thought I’d say this but…I hope I get frostbite.
Always nice to get positive feedback. Thanks!
I submitted the new skin and it should be available soon from the skins page.
-
Frostbite is still not there…
-
should be up tonite…
-
The skin is now available. You can get it from the main skin page.
PixelPirate has created two very nice skins. Excellent work! Check them out when you have the chance.
-
New skin coming after the holiday weekend. Updates to existing skins will follow. Mostly minor fixes and smaller file size on disk. Always a plus right?
Look for the new skin Tue or Wed.

(i) This last week I have been working on porting the MyPA skin to Opera. It will feature the same color scheme and orange buttons & effects.
Also, I’ve incorporated our beloved PA icon into the email client - replacing that ‘other’ archivers icon :cool:
(ii) Monday I hope to start a new PA skin, but its too early to settle on a color theme. I’m going to try something that has a bit more dimension.
-
heh, that skin is nice… It might make me use Opera :-).
-
Give it a try when it comes out of beta. There are numerous new features and bug fixes. Improved page rendering etc. Its come a long way in the last year or so.
-
You mean your Opera skin is ready? It must not be listed because I can’t find it. I’ll be waiting over-eagerly for it.
YEA!! Now Opera and PA have the same (matching) outfit :)

The skin is almost ready. A few more days I think. In the mean time, here is a preview…
Edit: 6/14/06 The skin is now live on Opera’s web site. Enjoy!

Here is a toolbar that didnt quite make it into a skin. You can save the file to your skins folder and select it from the context menu.
32x32 buttons. I didnt know what to call it, so give it a new name.
