Redestium Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 After taking a closer looks, it's pretty nice. I hate all the lines in the Star Menu > All Programs list though. :/ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/235250-vs-luster/#findComment-584800199 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien_Old Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 i'm liking it so far. i had to fix the quick launch buttons so that they would stretch with a double height taskbar. Oh, and I modified the clock font so i can see the time, day, and date. I always seem to do these mods to themes lately though...

imtoomuch Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 Nice, clean, and "safe". Nothing too original, but then again what is original anymore. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/235250-vs-luster/#findComment-584800602 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dividebyzero Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 Wow - MikeB314 continues to impress me! Check out his Multipass Carbon skin, which is an adaptation of R Peter Clark's multipass Winamp 5 skin. Outstanding AND original. Back to this skin tho... it's great for everyday use... my only complaint is the seperator lines... they really spoil the whole look and actually hinder my navigation. The normal seperators are actually a good visual clue that seem to of really helped me, and now that EVERYTHING has seperators, I'm battling to navigate menus :(. People have commented on this on Wincustomize as well. Knowing MikeB314, he'll probably issue an update. Gimme MORE! This is such a great time for WB... we're seeing more and more great, usable, feature reach skins. Kudo's to everyone!

I now pronounce this skin: "Untouchable"! 584813854[/snapback] Thanks for the comments, guys. :) I also fixed the margins on those quicklaunch buttons, and a couple of other things. I added the often requested compact start menu too, as a sub-skin. The highlighted text color is black on black with the classic start menu, as some have noted. It seems to suffer from the same problem that the favorites menu does. If I can find a way to make it obey the white text color I defined, I'll surely update it again.

ev0| Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Uh, this skin is hot, and it just goes to show you that there are plenty of WindowBlinds skins out there that are awesome looking. This skin is also fast, which cannot be said about many skins. Check out these cursors for cursor xp too, they match perfectly : http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=25&SkinID=683 AWWWWW YEAH !
