Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 27, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 27, 2008 ^You've got my permission to release that version. There won't be transparent versions though, I want the app skins to look the same as the actual visual style. I've got the same reasons for that as the reasons that I've got for the Vista port. @tsupersonic: I know that lots of people can't use this skin. But it was requested around the beta's from December and it looked kinda good. @boday: I thought about making a Crimson Red version. Also, my brother showed me a mobile phone that had nice colors but it's hard to find complementing colors for the controls. If I'm going to make more colors they'll be made after all the application skins that I'm going to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthmaulbr Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Nice Silver version, but like tsupersonic i will stick with black version... cant see the clock too, even on my CRT. Great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 27, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 27, 2008 ^It's still a mockup. I'm going to make a compiled version this weekend for Blue. @darthmaulbr: Then you honestly need to recalibrate your monitor. I'm using 2 CRT monitors and I can see the clock fine on both monitors.

I believe your best shellstyle so far is still the one you made for LE 5.1, I'm still using it to this day and it never gets old :p . No disrespect to the new one, of course :laugh: !

Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 27, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 27, 2008 You mean the one for LE 5.1 Black? I've tried something similar for Watercolor Emico but it made me think I was using Luna. I updated the journal that I've made on deviantART with some more info about further progress plus links to the contributions that have been made so far. Here's the link: Further progress and info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, that's the one. I like it because it separates the shellstyle from the folders clearly. Scirwode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 27, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 27, 2008 The blue version didn't feel right at all to me. I wanted to make it look like it's 1 whole. Also, the blue one was to distracting for me. The main reason why I didn't make a blue one is because it made it look like Luna and those kinds of shellstyles are being used in almost every visual style. I wanted to make something original for Emico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 27, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 27, 2008 True :p And I think that e-gus is a spammer since the only things that he posted is that icon in this thread and in another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarLion Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Been working on a Steam skin, here's the first complete mock-up (still just in photoshop, there's no actual skin yet) Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 29, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 29, 2008 ^Sam is also working on a skin for Steam. He had problems with skinning it though.. The glyphs in the caption buttons can't be changed (?). He also couldn't change the white frame which. Also, his first version had an overlay over the borders. So I'm not sure if you can change all that. But if you can, you should talk about it with Sam since he already started one. Maybe you 2 can cooperate on it. Also, those aren't the inactive tabs from Emico, they look a bit different. About the shellstyles; I'm not to sure if my mockup is going to work out. I have to add stuff to pe.xml and I have NO idea how I should do that. I also can't find a similar shellstyle that I could mod for Emico. I've tried the one from Royal Inspirat but I couldn't remove the extra frame so that's out of the question at the moment. Is there maybe someone that does know about a similar one?

Jamushroom Veteran Posted June 30, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted June 30, 2008 ^Not either of them has a image in the background. I need one with transparent frames it should have an image in the background. @cooky560: Did you read the 1st port? @Karmakaze: Thanks! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
