Zain Adeel Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Panda X i noticed something ... why is the Text on the OLD Software Tiles messed up? i mean it has a green tint? is that due to the contrast with purple or maybe it has a setting? the AA on the Text needs the color value to blend and doesnt automatically blend with whatever the background is? Also i dont see this text problem on that other guys work (the blue one) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1025792-windows-8-with-purple-bg/page/3/#findComment-594319898 Share on other sites More sharing options...
George P Global Moderator Posted September 18, 2011 Global Moderator Share Posted September 18, 2011 Ok, so changing the background color changed the desktop tile app color as well? So then do the metro apps have a preset color for their tile when you make them that can't be changed?

Jan Veteran Posted September 18, 2011 Veteran Share Posted September 18, 2011 Here's an idea: Can you see what it looks like with a purple background, white tiles and purple text?

SMELTN Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I love the one Panda posted, but I do agree a black background with grey tiles would look hot as well. Can't wait for someone to release this so we can all do it Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1025792-windows-8-with-purple-bg/page/3/#findComment-594320268 Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightShadow Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Well anyone can customize theirs. Then hopefully they are nice enough to share the files. Then soon we'll have files for each colour :p Oh and @Panda X .. Your latest update was corrupt. The archive won't extract properly.

DerAusgewanderte Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 great, I like it thank you. I agree with others and would love to see a dark background. One similar to your purple one but with black as main color and grays for the small-tile background layer. thanks Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1025792-windows-8-with-purple-bg/page/3/#findComment-594321622 Share on other sites More sharing options...
