DirtyLarry Veteran Posted March 26, 2010 Veteran Share Posted March 26, 2010 it is very simple.. go to www.zainadeel.deviantart.com and open my featured deviation.. and read the instructions.. but there is a software which does all the patching itself without even touching the system files.. i prefer the old method :) because that software didnt work for me. Cool thank you for the quick response. So it is pretty much exactly the same as it used to be when I did it. Easy enough.

0nyX Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Happy birthday Zain. I am using the beta of your theme and loving it so far.Cant wait the final release. One question though (hope it is not already asked by someone else). What is the problem with the colors on windows edges? Will this be fixed on the final version?

Eric Veteran Posted March 27, 2010 Veteran Share Posted March 27, 2010 Now we're on to something. :) It's obviously unrelated to this theme, but I bet there's a market for that. Happy birthday!

While that's one of the prettiest see-through skins I've seen...

Zain Adeel Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 thank u decaytion :) and guys trust me i was working on an opaque theme. One dark grey. the other light grey.. but its done alot and all of them seem too similar.. as for myself i use seethrough themes more so i opted to do one more transparent theme :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/886400-shine-20-new-theme-in-the-making/page/3/#findComment-592402500 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluxii Media Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Seethrough themes always seem to look a lot better over any basic theme. Aero was meant to run with transparency, I don't understand how others don't like it... but hey, that's just me. :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/886400-shine-20-new-theme-in-the-making/page/3/#findComment-592402510 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zain Adeel Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 others like it. i think they prefer opaque becoz its more professional. anyhow :) ive currently stopped working on the theme further. But im making concepts. Ill be getting LCD soon so ill resume working on it then :) but ive really confused for the caption buttons and all. i want suggestions and i will also be making the explorerframe.dll i mean the back forward buttons and everything :) so all the suggestions welcome. i was thinking of making them square.. but still with the same arrow as it is. and thank u everybody for all the birthday wishes :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/886400-shine-20-new-theme-in-the-making/page/3/#findComment-592402530 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Anarkii Subscriber² Posted March 28, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted March 28, 2010 Any chance you uploading your start orb/icon pack used mate? I finally got your theme working, (and it looks great) but without the start orb and icons, I feel its lacking that awesomeness that you posted in the first post :) I like the squared idea for the back buttons too. The only thing that bugs me at the moment about your theme is the mouse overs for the minimise, maximise and close buttons. Instead of the arrows, can you have the actual icon glow maybe 2 pixels instead? The arrows loose focus when you have something maximised.

Zain Adeel Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 i am sorry but i havent started working on the window borders or captions yet but i dont understand what you are trying to say. Can u make a mockup in paint or something? and i have released the startorb bmp and the icons even :) after i am done with the theme ill take request for similar icons :) check out my page (link in sig) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/886400-shine-20-new-theme-in-the-making/page/3/#findComment-592402580 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Anarkii Subscriber² Posted March 28, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted March 28, 2010 sure ill make a mockup, gimme a few mins i suck at paint. Also, I don't mean the start orb you have in your deviant art page, I mean the start orb that was used in the first pic on page 1 of this thread. I like that one :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/886400-shine-20-new-theme-in-the-making/page/3/#findComment-592402592 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Anarkii Subscriber² Posted March 28, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted March 28, 2010 I was thinking something like this, these would be the mouse over states for the buttons... Just not a real big fan of the arrows.
