andrew_f Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Just saw a concept after posting this :angry: But i have started making my first ever theme based upon the interface of Google Talk... Done the majority of the basic interface for window now and starting on task bar - as you can see.

andrew_f Posted August 28, 2005 Author Share Posted August 28, 2005 Its got a far bit to go until completion but you can now download an early version - windows (pretty much done) - task bar (done afaik) and start menu (done afaik) are all included but uses alot of XP default icons ect. because they work well with it. I dnt take responsibility if anything goes wrong whilst using the theme.

Sandor Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 like it...pretty smooth and clean. taskbar is a bit too thick still...thin it and make a few more adjustments to make it more unique than a standard windows theme and you'll be onto a winner. also: when i run my mouse over an item in the taskbar the text goes white and becomes hard to read. screenshot attached Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/364478-google-talk-theme/#findComment-586475612 Share on other sites More sharing options...
canbeli Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 I love it, esp. the taskbar, since there isn't much others anyway. Show us buttons and menus? Sorry didn't read the first page. EDIT: After having a look at your file, well, its a good path, but maybe make the gradient on the taskbar darker? and the button to make all the hidden icons on the right appear is screwed up. The minus sign is okay. Do up all the buttons and bars etc and it'll be nice.

fourte3n Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 the coloring seems to be quite off. the gtalk is basically just milk with some tweaks. other than the color differences it cool.

Andrew Lyle Global Moderator Posted September 11, 2005 Global Moderator Share Posted September 11, 2005 i would make the start button round... people like the windows XP default start button.. i have NO idea why people change it.... square is ugly.. thats why people use the windows XP new themes.. cause they wanna stay away from the squareness of windows 95-2000 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/364478-google-talk-theme/#findComment-586507179 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athje Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Oh my god! This is the best theme ever! Except for some glitches, though. First I wanted to say that you should go on like this, but then I saw that this is all posted some years ago. So... Is it finished? Pleaaaase upload it: I really really liked it!
