Watercolor Emico


Recommended Posts

^Read the notes on the first page :) I will make a logon screen when all the main styles are done. Same counts for the shellstyles. Both will be an add-on to the theme. I didn't make shellstyles yet simply because they "break" the theme.

@BlueFox: Thank you! :D

@mitchmalibu: That's nice to hear :)

awesome lookin theme, one of the better i've seen :) one thing though. i'm one those weirdos who have the taskbar placed at the upper edge of the screen. now might be just me, but don't the lower gradiant on the start menu looks a little out of place then? i can see why it's there though since it fits perfectly when you have the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. i see most other themes use the "inverse-color-method" of handling this. like if the taskbar has a darker gradiant on top, the start menu has a lighter one on the bottom, and vice versa. this theme has a light gradiant on both ends. dunno if this makes any sense, my english is a little rusty :p

^If it's weird for you while having the taskbar at the top then it's probably weird while having it at the bottom as well. It looks fine to me both ways though.. I just added the bottom part because it looks to flat without it.

Great work. One of my all time favourites.

Using it at work. Have Vista at home, so I'm waiting for a WindowBlinds port :)

I think all us Vista users are ;)

Sorry guys, I've scrapped my work on the WindowBlinds port. I guess I'm a little too inexperienced with it, and just couldn't get it to work. :unsure: Hopefully someone who knows what they're doing can do a good job with it, though.

Oh, and I've reverted back to my XP setup, and using this theme now. I love it!

You took advice from em3? What does that guy know?! ;) :laugh:

Awesome work man; it's my new favorite theme!

I was a huge fan of Watercolor, and this adds that extra zest that makes it come alive once more!

Fantastic!

It's the very first skin that I made by myself from the start. I got stuck at some points where he helped me out :p We're kinda helping each other out which you'll see in LE7.

:D so LE7 is already in the works? when can we expect LE6?

If that was a typo, don't mind me. Carry on.

@skelly831: The 7 wasn't a typo :p I can't talk about it more since it's not my visual style. If there's news about it that everyone should know then em3 will post it.

Oh look, there's a Radish? in my threa:p:p

First of all, great thanks for this visual style! Watercolor has always been my all-time-favorite. Looking very much forward to the ergonomic style :woot:

Like any 3rd party visual style, the minimize to tray button in Everest is borked up. You may have a solution for it?

I've put the glyphs inside the caption button bitmaps. If I would solve that problem then I have to take the glyphs out and put them in a separate bitmap. Which would add more complicated stuff to the theme.

@+Capric0rn

Thanks for your answer, I understand the difficulty of the problem. However if you might ever find some spare time.... ;) :blush: I would be glad to help, however I've got no clue creating themes, I only make scripts and little programs for Linux haha!

I'm Spanish. When I put this theme with START TEXT in START MENU, i see logo + "START" but I want logo + "INICIO" (start in spanish). With others themes is OK but this one only I can see START.

Why?

Thanks for the theme. Waiting black theme!!!!!!
