Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 19, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 19, 2008 ^They don't have the full gradient :p Here's the correct frame for the userpicture for Watercolor Emico: Blue. It also has smooth corners. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496494 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sputnik.RU Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 @StarLion Personally I like the 'new' one better, very very slick. Well done! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496526 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krokus Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 The new one looks better. Very nice! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496538 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, you want the gradient even smoother? :blink: Anyway, I'll replace the userimage frame with that one. Going to be a very subtle change though.

Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 19, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 19, 2008 The gradient looks weird IMO. Look at the toolbar buttons and compare the gradient with yours :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496558 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tehmemories Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Maybe make the green circular arrow into a square emico one (like the power button)? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496562 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krokus Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) That would look nice. Something like this? :p Edited June 19, 2008 by Krokus Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496580 Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarLion Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Ok, this has got to be getting close to final, lets hope this is the last update I need to do before I actually release the skin :wacko: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496670 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 19, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 19, 2008 ^That looks better :D I've got another small question though. Did you change the blue from the original XP logon screen to the Emico blue shades? Trying out a logo here: I'm personally not happy with it at all.

Krokus Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Wow.. Looks nice. But should look more like the blocks you did in the Startbutton. And replace the Windows Flag in the Logon with it. :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496721 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 19, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 19, 2008 If I'd do that the logo would look very weird. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496730 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krokus Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Then try the colors like in the startbutton? :p Red Green Blue Yellow Would be better I think.

StarLion Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 ^That looks better :D I've got another small question though. Did you change the blue from the original XP logon screen to the Emico blue shades? I have yet to even start editing the LogonUI, this is all still in Photoshop. I want to make sure everything is final and set before I start patching system files. I'll give that flag a spin, who knows, might look good.

Yggdrasilly Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 This is made from an icon set that I found a while back, I forget where I got it... Anyway, maybe something to this effect might work? [sorry about it being so small, but it WAS an icon after all.] Though maybe rearranging the colours as stated above might be better?

Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 19, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 19, 2008 I hate my own logo to be honest so don't use it :p And I didn't even notice that I did the colors the wrong way lol.

Krokus Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Does not look REAL bad. But could be better. What about this? Just came up with it. The blocks in the background. Use that to color the flag? Could look nice. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/12/#findComment-589496784 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yggdrasilly Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I knew it was the office logo, but there's a certain style about that particular version that looks nice. At least at that size, I'm not sure if it were enlarged, though.

Krokus Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I never liked the Office logo. Because of the dots in the middle. But could look nice if the dots are removed and the sides would not be round.
