Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 20, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 20, 2008 (edited) That's because there's no shellstyle in the theme so there are no settings for that part either.

Yggdrasilly Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I think with the amount of people who don't like the 'Vista-style' shellstyle I put out, I'm also going to work on a left-pane [the default type] style as well. I've never built one of those though, so we'll see what happens. :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/15/#findComment-589499122 Share on other sites More sharing options...

skelly831 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I love the fading/gradient effect on Capric0rn's shellstyle, fits seamlessly with the theme :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/15/#findComment-589499357 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yggdrasilly Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I've been hard at work [kinda] on a left-pane shell, and this is what I have so far: I still want to change the arrow-buttons , and the background color for the entire pane.

tmr250z Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 @Capric0rn: I'm really loving the Watercolor Emico series! Great job! :) But, I would like to make a little request regarding WE Black. I'd like to have an option of having grey highlighting on toolbar buttons as well as the blue. Kind of like the way it was on the toolbar buttons of WE Blue before you revised them. IMO I think it'll fit the theme better and coincide with the way the other 2 versions of WE are.

Lee G. Veteran Posted June 20, 2008 Veteran Share Posted June 20, 2008 ^I know someone that's working on that kind of a shellstyle ;) And no it's not me :p ^Here's an updated version of mine: @russellc: Thanks! :D Wow - that's not what I had in mind, but wow, that's amazing! :D That's because there's no shellstyle in the theme so there are no settings for that part either.Also, here's a teaser from the new toolbar buttons: Fantastic! I've been hard at work [kinda] on a left-pane shell, and this is what I have so far: I still want to change the arrow-buttons , and the background color for the entire pane. Yeah - that's exactly the kind of shellstyle I had in mind. Having seen Capric0rn's though, I have to say I prefer his :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/15/#findComment-589499559 Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarLion Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Modified the black version of the skin into "Black Glass", modified a RocketDock skin to match (top), and whipped up a custom Launchy skin as well (center). Click for the full version: The logon screen is pretty much final (Need a [?] button though), and now I'm hammering out the alternate color versions. Should be ready shortly.

Great minds think alike, I was making the same - http://img148.imageshack.us/my.php?image=40977209mr0.jpg I'd like to redo it, but sadly don't have the time (sorry Capric0rn :() - hopefully this can give you an idea with the drop-down arrows :) Radish?

fernand Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 why when I click right button of mouse, in black theme for example, and select NEW (folder, shorcut, etc), in this sub-menu the text is black and no change to white?

I can't see the text!!!!Sorry for my english Thanks Unfortunately, that is one problem with using a dark selection color. You will find this on every theme, as it's a Windows error, not a theme error. However, there's good news. That kind of selection appears very rarely in general Windows use, so you won't encounter it often.

Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 21, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 21, 2008 @Yggdrasilly: Maybe you can use the arrows from the scrollbars? I don't really like how the blocks are being squashed. If that can't be changed you should base the shellstyle on the smallframes. @tmr250z: I can't add more substyles to this theme. Well I can but I'm not going to because then all the other subtyles should also have the toolbar option. I'll think about the black toolbar buttons. I've tried them already but IMO they should have a color. I'll ask my beta testers. @StarLion: What kind of color should the ? button have? @Radish?: That's no problem. I think that Yggdrasilly should also ask you if he can release his version. @Yochanan: He meant that the "New" menu is rarely use:p:p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641236-watercolor-emico/page/15/#findComment-589500289 Share on other sites More sharing options...
