3 pink pixels, see how they run

Post by dalejr33 »

Has anybody else but me noticed the annoying 3 pink pixels that appear on the top left on the arrow buttons in windowed mode? They annoy me so i fixed them. [:'(] Attached is a edited version of the button1.bmp if anybody wants it (rename to .bmp from .jpg). [;)]

The RGB values for those 3 pixels was off by one 254,0,254 instead of 255,0,255 [8D]

Thanks a lot - I am using 32 bit and I hated those 3 ugly pink pixels!

BTW, there is one other place where pink line (1 pixel wide and 2-3 pixels long) still exists - it is on the top of the slider.

Do you think you can eliminate this as well?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, if you are getting the 3 pink pixels next to your arrow buttons and a little pink line at the top of the scroll bar. [:D]

Will it work for a pink dots I see when my gf throws empty beer bottles aimed at my head, b'cause "you're playing that darned game again?!?" [;)]

Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage.

What's the correct way to download this thing? When I do it is neither a .bmp nor a .jpg - it comes out as an HTML and renaming it gives no joy (I assume I should be able to view it before loading it in WITP).

I for one am very happy to get this fix. Those three pixels have been annoying me for a long time...

No, somebody fixed them on his own and offered the fix to the rest of us. [8D]
