Bubbabyte Posted November 16, 2005 Author Share Posted November 16, 2005 which buttons is the shadow text a problem? it's supposed to give a glow type effect, and i can't drop that from the theme. And about the start menu with the stars, it just didn't fit to me.. but i'll see if i can do something with it.

Denis W. Veteran Posted November 16, 2005 Veteran Share Posted November 16, 2005 View the attachment. The Cancel button's text glow is so bright it's quite difficult to notice the button text, at least on my (rather bright) monitor. I also noticed another bug: the titlebar text on maximized windows doesn't change at all when focussing/unfocussing a window. Besides that.. it has no shadow effect, compared to non maximized windows.

WigglesTheFish Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 not bad for a holiday inspired theme... my parents/sister will probably love to use this theme.

P!P Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Ran it and like it. Still has a way to go for a perfect theme like LE4 but this is a great start. Great Job!

autodefe Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Ahaha! You went with the name I suggested :) One thing I noticed, when you maximize a window the titlebar is blue for a split second. Might want to look into that :) And other than the big gap between the start button and my quick launch icons, this theme is rockin.

Vibes1963 Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 I love it man!!, few things:when a program is flashing on the taskbar its hard to notice, maybe make it flash red.. if you know what am on about. the only part i dislike, or like the least is the taskbar colour, i think the vs may need another colour somewhere.. like blue. just an idea. heres a pic with my own shellstyle: 586815462[/snapback] Excellent theme and i love all the colours any chance of a shellstyle like this one coming with the final version giving us a choice of which to use.

Bubbabyte Posted November 16, 2005 Author Share Posted November 16, 2005 here is an updated visual.. updated caption bars (removed stars) made active/inactive noticeable. Added alternative shellstyle Added folder images lightened the tabs and buttons to make viewing black text easier. Lowered the glow effect on some text. changed scrollbars to match the style more. let me know your thoughts, and please report any more bugs that you've come across.
