Included Addons
Bongos Skinned Map - an 'extended ' version of Bongos Map Bar
Bongos Quest Bar - movable and customizable quest watch and timer bars
Bongos Durability - A movable and customizable armor durability bar
Bongos BG - PvP related Bongos bars

Precautions!
Always use newest Bongos2 version
Disable Bongos Map Bar, because Bongos Skinned Map is incompatible with it. You can't load them at the same time and doing it will cause Bongos Skinned Map to be automatically disabled.
Bug Reports
When reporting bugs, please mention witch WoW, Bongos and Bongos Skinned Map version you are using and witch addons you have enabled. Don't forget to describe exactly what you are experiencing and to report the bug at my portal.
Bug Reports - Make Sure
One of the addons included in this package is causing the bug, and not any other Bongos bar
The bug you are experiencing isn't covered by this FAQ
If the addon causing the bug appears to be Bongos Skinned Map, then also make sure the 'original' Bongos Map does not have the same bug (if it has the bug, report at Bongos2 page).
Change Log - Bongos Skinned Map
Version 7.3
New: Capture Bar (Bongos BG), Bongos Clock and Bongos Coordinates
Map: Removed clock code (because now is useless)
Map: More intuitive error messages
Quest: quest log check icons should be finally correctly placed
Quest: Main code improvements
Durability: Updated Collision Lib
BG, Quests and Durability: Now you may stick the bars side by side, because they will dynamically change their width when hided and locked (easier to understand if you try it by yourself)
As you may know, Bongos3 is in development and can be downloaded at Tuller's Google Code page.
Bongos Skinned Map also will also change a lot. First of all, it will be renamed to "Bongos Cornucopia". As Tuller is going to stop developing Bongos Minimap, Bongos Skinned Map will replace it.
You can grab the Bongos Cornucopia beta version here.
Originally posted by jaliborc O fixed the bug today, and it will work next version. But, if you are using DetachedMinimapButtons, then you may have the bug anyway, because that addon overrides the Bongos Skinned Map dragging code.
Wonderful thankyou for doing that! Now i can include it in my new ui . Ill have to take that up with the author of dmb and see what they say. Thanks again
Originally posted by Elloria your welcome. and it seems i may have reported this in the wrong area im sorry for that. Didnt read further down about reporting this on your portal. I appologize. The group calender button does share the same slot with the day and night indicator. But when i did enable it the night/day indicator both the groupcalender and day and night indicator did show. Not sure of a solution around this but for the time being i tucked the day and night indicator in the corner of my screen where it cannot be seen.

Originally posted by Elloria I tested this out tonight after noticing that the groupcalender button was not showing up when i had bongos skinned map loaded. So i logged out unloaded all my addons except groupcalender, bongos, and bongos skinned minimap. Still groupcalender icon is not showing. Is there anything i can do to fix this? i looked through all the buttons and tried them all (atleast the ones that werent obviously it) but nothing helped.
edit: well i tried enabling the day/night time indicator and suddenly after doing a /rl the groupcalender icon showed up but along with the day and night indicator which i dont want to show. So for now i will just shove the indicator to the bottom right hand side of my screen so it doesnt show.

Well, I don't know how group calendar works, but I think that it hooks the Day/Night indicator.
I will figure out a solution and it should be fixed in the next version.

Originally posted by jaliborc Yes, a screen shot would be great.
I will send it over tonight as its all been working and never got back here. JSTNC is correct though- thats the screen shot i will send you that the download contains both a folder and a kile named "skin" "localization" and windows won't allow it to be loaded. You simply have to remove the duplicate "file" and then it all works. I will send that over tonight.
But its working pretty solidly right now, havent had any hitches at all now that its working, but i only use about 15mbs of mods, I like to keep it lean and this is pretty lean and mean.
Originally posted by nikorl Nice addon to bongos, love it!
Found a little bug:
if opacity of minimap set for 87 and lower, map will be blank indoors (outdoors ok)
I'm glad you like it!
About the bug: Bongos Map Bar as the same problem. I already reported it to Tuller portal. I hope he will fix it soon.
I've just downloaded the addon in a Windows computer. I didn''t have any problem and the addon is working just like in the Mac.
The only prolem is the MAC_OX folder, but you just need to move it to the trash.
Re: folders and files of same name causing problems

Originally posted by jstnc Oh, I think I've figured out what the problem is. The download has both folders and files at the same levels that are named identically. You can't both have a "Skin" folder and a "Skin" file at that same level.
No, that's not the problem because there isn't any problem.

The mod is working. You just have to move the 'Bongos_ExtendedMap' and 'Bongos_QuestBars' folders to your addons folder.
Please report bugs at my portal. Not here!

I'm having the same problem as the poster below. A screenshot won't really help. All that happens is that a box comes up that is entitled "Error Copying File or Folder: The system cannot find the file specified." You click ok and it stops copying the folder.
I downloaded the file, unzipped it, opened the folder entitled "Bongos Skinned Map - 7.1" and attempted to transfer the extended map and QuestBar folders to my addons folder. Both folders come up with this error.
If I go in and copy each individual file and folder everything works except a file called "localization." It is that file that is causing the error.
Edit: Just to specify, it is not the folder entitled "localization" that is causing the problem but is the file (0kb in size) at that same level that is causing the problem.
Originally posted by mojojojoaf I honestly can't say what happened but if you'd like I can send you a screen shot of what the files and folders look like when I unzip them.
Bongos Cornucopia
. Ill have to take that up with the author of dmb and see what they say. Thanks again
