Xml 8-digit Hex Color Codes
« on: November 10, 2006, 06:14:00 PM »

Ok... I have recently been messing with skinning my UnleashX dash. I could not find ONE single tutorial on how to skin so I figured it all out on my own. I learned quite a bit about just looking at the XML files of other skins... but I just couldn't figure out why the hex codes were 8-digit instead of 6. After much experimenting and comparing skins and thinking about it... I realized that the first two digits are OPACITY (transparency). The lower those first two hex digits amount to, the more transparent it is. FF is 100% opacity... and obviously 00 is 0%. The six after that are the hex color codes we all know and love. I thought I'd just contribute to anyone who is struggling to figure out what to do.
