Bioran Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Slight nitpick about superbar icons: For the WLM icon, between each layer there is a very small blank space separating the layer graphics, and for the Pidgin icon, the bottom layer stays purple even when the top is blinking orange. Not sure if this is a Windows 7 issue or the theme's.

Zain Adeel Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 the one pixel gap is because of how windows render color and my buttons are 2 pixel shorter because of the way i made them they have 2 borders not 1 and yes i dont remember the second smaller thing going orange.. only the main one does i think. and yes :) thats about it.

0nyX Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Loving it so far. Only thing i dont like is the existence of user picture on start menu.I prefer start menus more compact with no user picture at all but other than that great theme.

SkyDX Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Just installed the new Beta and it's a refreshing change from Soft7^^ Looks beautiful and no bugs yet!

SkyDX Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Hey Sky I would love a blue progress bar also, would you mind sharing yours when you find out which it is? I think the numbers to edit are: 690, 693, 699 and 707 I just changed them but I'm too lazy to log out and back in again to reload the skin so I can't tell yet :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/886400-shine-20-new-theme-in-the-making/page/7/#findComment-592499466 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zain Adeel Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 you dont need to log out :) just revert to default aero theme and then apply my theme again :) and well i am not changing from green progress bar from download.. but i willchange hard drive bars to white or grey.. and i dont yet know where is the download progress bar in superbar button thing.. what resource i mean :p lolx Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/886400-shine-20-new-theme-in-the-making/page/7/#findComment-592500006 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyDX Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I know that I normally don't need to log out but I'm loading my .msstyles through WindowBlinds to get a few extra transparency options :p And it's okay if you stick to green, it's easy to mod for the user^^ As for the Taskbar Progressbar, I think it's 951, though I'm not sure yet... EDIT: Correction, 1154 is more likely^^' Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/886400-shine-20-new-theme-in-the-making/page/7/#findComment-592500506 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Paliath Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 Beautiful skin. :) I'm very particular about visual styles; the only one on 7 I could tolerate without reverting back to the default Aero UI was Soft7. Well, I'm using your skin and it's excellent, despite it being a beta I'm yet to see fault in it. Keep up the good work.
