Solved Problems with start menu background image

[zerox535]

I have a problem with putting a image on my start menu background. I used 1 image and cropped it into 5 different images, but 1 out of the 5 screwed up on the right side of the start menu which is stretched even though the size is exactly the same, i use restorator and paint. I used one of dark7mix themes as a base (heres the link) http://www.deviantart.com/download/136063382/Dark7mix_Theme_UPDATE_by_adrianodj25.rar
and editted it to my liking

Probably a "sizing-margins" issue... Do you have Windows Style Builder...?

Edit : & how is it if extended...?

Would you post the modded msstyle, i will have a try to fix that...

 

[scoopeeedoo]

Or if you can access the "sizingmargins" values...

 

[zerox535]

actually i wouldnt mind having you helping me fix it xD, idk much about computers,and do you know where i can upload the msstyle?

 

[scoopeeedoo]

Zip it, write a reply here & choose "attachments" option...

okay i got it and its image 875 in the IMAGE file that is screwing me up, everything else is fine

 

[scoopeeedoo]

It doesn't really match, would you please post original image you have used... & the cuted ones... Thx

 

[scoopeeedoo]

have a look when i stick the parts...

It can't match...

 

[zerox535]

i uploaded the cutted ones (im not 100% sure about 875 because i had a lot of them for test runs, if it does not fit then im sorry) the others should be okay

argh sorry then >.< i musta replaced the one i used by accident >.> i think i have to recrop them again sorry for wasting your time, one question, when you fix the margin thing, does it stay fixed forever, like when i want to change the image it'll still work?

 

[scoopeeedoo]

Don't worry, i'm havin' fun!

When sizin' is fixed, it's fixed...

But images MUST have same sizes!!!

 

[scoopeeedoo]

Post the entire image...

 

[zerox535]

okay i did, but i forgot to put it in PNG format and its kinda a big picture, do you still need me to redo the cropping?

 

[scoopeeedoo]

No, thx...

 

[zerox535]

No, thx...

ill assume that means you dont need me to crop :sarc:?, and the size in 875 in the msstyle is bigger because it stretched when it was the exact size shown so i thought increaseing the size would fix the problem since i've read it stretches when the image is too small responding to your posts before xD, but yeah im a complete newbie when it comes to these software programing/editing images

 

[scoopeeedoo]

Yo!

Sorry, it doesnt match exactly yet, many values have to be taken, and i will need more time to test other configs...

This is the actual result & the corresponding msstyle...

Sorry again, i will have a look a bit later, i'm hungry now, lol!!!

See ya & have fun!!!

ah thanks, do you need the cutted images? i recut them and they're all the correct size and stuff, and i did try to install my images myself, but then a problem occured on the right side again on the start menu where the image wont show itself so heres the images they'll match exactly if you dont mind helping a little bit more when you have free time :X, btw when i use your version without changing anything the right panel doesnt stretch anymore, but its in the wrong position completely, but im assuming its cuz our screen resolution is different?

here is the screenshots before and after the editing ive done to the one you gave me.
