Googintosh Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Yes thats it, when you're starting up your own business the thing you care about most is getting replies on a forum. Go troll somewhere else, can't be arsed dealing with morons like yourself. In fact please never, ever, post in one of my theme threads again. People like you - who don't appreciate the time people take out of their own lives to release free stuff - make me sick to the bone. What line of business? Please say Microsoft hired you to make a theme that will replace Aero. Your themes put Luna and Aero to shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoL Veteran Posted January 30, 2006 Veteran Share Posted January 30, 2006 I use the Zip button, then apply it via a shortcut to the msstyle, that way I don't lose my wallpaper :?) [f]... - Captions buttons are purposely behind the glass (gloss). - I'm completely changing the taskbar. - I've gone off the scrollbars, I'm using a much simpler approach. This is what I do to test the theme. I hit Actions > Compile the theme. Then I go to the theme folder and double click the .msstyle and apply. I keep the display properties window open and when I want to apply the changes I select the substyle and apply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Watcher Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Yes thats it, when you're starting up your own business the thing you care about most is getting replies on a forum.

People like you - who don't appreciate the time people take out of their own lives to release free stuff - make me sick to the bone. Yes, now, I am quite happy with that reply of yours. Just a note though, I wasn't serious. I think your theme is superb, and I do consider to be quite lucky to even be able to download your themes as I respect you a lot, as a themer(if that's what you call yourself). But please, think twice before you reply. I could give a damn less. Why the hell do I even bother replying to you? Oh another side note. If you want we can settle this situation. Just PM me.

CeL_dAmAgE Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 This is going to sound pretty damn late but- OMFG B0SE IS BACK!!oneoneone11!!. Yay! I know this is really, really out of your way, but please please PLEASE can you either make a WindowBlinds theme or atleast make it able to port easily with SkinStudio? I can name a couple of themes that don't like to port very easily. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0se Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Hexagon: I wish :?) Ghost: You expect me to know whether you are joking or not? So many replies, I can't sit and ponder of the validity of each one! Anyway, doesn't matter. Here's the theme on my desktop... An all orange taskbar got sickly, so I opted to use something more neutral. I want an orange theme, but I don't want to feel saturated by it.

b0se Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Oh man, a blue and green version would be sooo nice. Check the first post for the planned colours. I'll probably make one using the current inactive caption bar colour, as I really like it :?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fascist Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Awww the taskbar was my favorite... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0se Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 New one is nicer imho - more useable. Too much orange is off-putting. Might release a modded version with a coloured taskbar later down the line - but not initially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Watcher Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 It's looking amazing :) great job. Oh and I don't mind about it either. It's all chill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotdog666al Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Woot!! I've been looking forward to this one for a while now :) I prefer the first screen shot to this new one. the new one looks similar to other skins, the first one was totally unique. :( But anyhoo I'm sure whatever you release will be great (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googintosh Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I like the first taskbar too, but both are really good. If it is too much orange maybe reverse the taskbar colours on the first one? Anyway, great job so far nonetheless. :punk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b0se Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I could pull the taskbar off, I just don't think its a good idea for long-term usability... I *may* add that version later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dejon Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I also prefer the older taskbar. It looks a little more simple/clean to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pajter Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Hey b0se! Just a few points of criticism from a derailed artist, judging by the last screenshot. I can still see some jaggies now and there, and although this is still in alpha/beta, and you'll probably get them out perfecting the whole theme, I just wanted to say that. Also, I would go a bit more easy on the drop shadow from the start button. It makes it look a bit blurry :) Other than that, a good upgrade from the first screenshot. I'm anxiously awaiting the release.. been using XPMC for too long now :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x-byte Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Good to see you're back bOse :) I'm still waiting patiently for this theme, it's really worth the wait. The latest preview looks great and very close to the initial concept. I really hope the first taskbar sees the light of day though. Keep up the good work. Your themes are all great. Still use OpusOS which is your best I think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invhntr Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 For what it's worth I like the first taskbar better too. :unsure: Aside from that it looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
