retsnom Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 Absolutely great. Love it. Looking forward to Winamp skin now, although the Spirit skins still fit well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suspiria Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 The only slight problem i have with this VS, is that the buttons dont really stand out enough. I think a border around the buttons(atleast when you hover over them) matching the color of the VS(i.e. Blue, Olive, Metallic, etc..) would liven it up a little, and make the buttons more instantly obvious to the eye.

Paparazzi Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Yeah, I was hoping for something like that too! Anyway, now, I finally thought of experimenting with the style builder and opened up this over there. I then took portion of the taskbarbutton from the Blue and put it into Ergo and now I've got it showing in a different colour. I also took the scroll bars from the SimpleX 2003 and put it in here. Now, I've got most of Kol exactly as I'd wanted it ... except that I'd have preferred the max button to be of 1 colour when maximised and another when not maximum. Also, I wanted the userpane to look like the one in SimpleX. Have not been able to do the last 2, but I guess I'm still quite happy! Cheers!

bcool Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 I repeat. A very nice VS indeed. Very smooth and rich in texture. My only complaint that I try not to dwell on has to do with the check boxes which fill in with color and a check mark when you select by a click of the mouse and/or the directional boxes prefixed before each folder containing subfolders. Notice how these are filled in with dark (for example) "ergo" color so that one cannot see the check marks when a box is checked or the directional arrows indicating opened subfolder in Explorer. These boxes just look plain ugly to me even if they remain somewhat functional despite it all. Can't you make these boxes fill in with a different color or even transparent so that you can see the check marks or directional arrows??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr White Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Good Job Kol , overall a very nice VS. The only thing I don't like on this theme is that large red close button. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpookyET Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 The theme would be really cool if there was a version with thin taskbar and titlebar. I hope you release one. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Is it possible to have the same taskbar, and a different titlebar :) The title bar is a bit too exotic for me, but I think the taskbar is amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoL Veteran Posted January 7, 2005 Author Veteran Share Posted January 7, 2005 I dont know if Im going to make another titlebar. I know the titlebar is a little big and I posted about it in my WIP thread on gfxOasis but the idea of FOOOD was to create the captiion buttons the way they are now. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoL Veteran Posted January 9, 2005 Author Veteran Share Posted January 9, 2005 These days I've been trying to start the winamp skin. I tried like 4 different design and I didnt like any of them. I dont want to keep trying so I dont think Im going to make the winamp skin now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gahbmwM5 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Hi Franco, As always your 'attentiveness' to your wonderful GUI designs is always appreciated my friend! I still have to get use to the 'checkboxes' being a colour ie: Sustenance Blue--->the Windows Explorer 'checkboxes' are blue...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
