Skeezy Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 which thing? trillian in general or just astra?the 3.x series is still being worked on, but it's mostly security fixes. astra is just hovering in the longest alpha stage that i've ever seen. Sadly these don't seem to work with Astra :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted August 10, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted August 10, 2008 Shellstyles might be released this week but I'm having some issues with the toolbar image. I'm not sure if I like it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamushroom Veteran Posted August 14, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted August 14, 2008 Do you guys like the new toolbar background from this screenshot? If so, I'll update the styles with that toolbar image instead of something newer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krokus Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I like it the way it is right now. Smooth looking. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted August 14, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted August 14, 2008 The toolbar image needs to be changed for the shellstyles. I like the way it is right now as well but when someone enables the shellstyles, the toolbar will look to ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skelly831 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 What exactly is this toolbar background you speak of? Do you mean the bar where the Back, Up, Search buttons, etc. are located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scirwode Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 What exactly is this toolbar background you speak of? Do you mean the bar where the Back, Up, Search buttons, etc. are located? I too would like to know. Scirwode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterPL Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I think it's shadow on top left :) I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scirwode Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I think it's shadow on top left :) I like it. Oh, is that what it means? In that case, I like it (Y) . Scirwode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted August 14, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted August 14, 2008 @peterPL and Scirwode: That's not what I mean because that's actually a gradient in the top left of the shellstyle. I mean the toolbar with back and forward etc :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krokus Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 The line under it? Without a shellstyle it has a darker line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted August 14, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted August 14, 2008 Without the shellstyle, a normal explorer window uses the "comboboxbevel.bmp" image. That image isn't used when a shellstyle is enabled. The toolbar will look weird without a line at the bottom, which is why I have to add it to the toolbar. It'll make the line thicker when there's no shellstyle in use. I never planned on making a shellstyle for this visual style so there wasn't a dark line at the bottom of the toolbar image. So shellstyles break the visual style in an ugly way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krokus Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Do that if you want to do it. To make it look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So shellstyles break the visual style in an ugly way if you want to have that line at the bottom of the toolbar just make it a part of the shellstyle itself. same goes for the inner shadow of the left window frame. just a quick mod of the shellstyle i've used in clearlooks: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted August 15, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted August 15, 2008 I thought about doing that but I've got no ideas about how to add and remove stuff from a shellstyle. I'll ask dis, who made the Emico shellstyles, if he can add the line into the shellstyle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueguy Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I searched around and didn't see this bug reported. I am using XP SP3. I found a bug in all the Watercolor themes. When I apply a style and set the Active Title Bar size to 23 (or any odd number) the title bar image is off by 1 pixel vertically in non-maximized windows. Here's 2 screenshots that show the bug in Olive Classic with Active Title Bar set to 23px: Maximized Non-Maxmized It's not a huge issue since I can just use an even number and the bug goes away. Anyway, thanks for making these beautuful VS's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted August 18, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted August 18, 2008 ^That's not a bug at all. The theme is designed to use the settings which it comes with. Changing them will, ofcourse, break the theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartan Erik Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Ever consider making a WE wallpaper for each of these themes? It would be nice to match everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted August 20, 2008 Author Veteran Share Posted August 20, 2008 ^I already have less time for Blue SE now that I've got school again. Maybe I can make a wallpaper for each theme but don't expect anything big. @UssjTrunks: Thanks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
