SlanXP 2.0 is a complete remake of my first visual style SlanXP. It's a very dark theme that works good for us with very bright LCD monitors. ;)

There are 2 font option substyles. AvanteGarde and Tahoma.

UPDATE: (18/4 - 2007)

-Captionbar fixes. Resize problem fixed. This also makes the captionbuttons a lot more compact.

-Blank shellstyle included.

-Small update on the instructions.htm file for the foobar2000 config. (About the foobar2000.cfg file.)

[ProiektHat]

very nice dark theme

[klipse]

this looks promising!

[zachacham]

great job.

any chance to have a minimalistic colored winflag version?

[tehmemories]

Good job. Although I don't like the hover image on the scroll bars and the taskbar.

too dark

[apul]

great work mate!

[tehmemories]

Is the progress bar supposed to look like this ?

[srn]

Really nice Theme :yes:

two suggestions though:

-You should use the CaptionButtons attached as your normal CaptionButtons and also as your SmallCaptionButtons.

This will solve the bug in Photoshop ;)

-Use the same FrameBorders in the SmallCaption windows as you do for the normal windows. The borders are to light for the SmallCaption windows at the moment.

Thanks all. :)

@zachacham: A colored win flag was the original plan, but somehow it looked very odd. The contrast played tricks with my mind. :o :p

@thememories: Nope, that's a bug that I need to fix. :)

@srn: Thanks for the suggestions. :) Will be fixed in the next update.

I don't like that blue line/ring that you have around everything when you hover your mouse over things. It doesn't flow. To me.

Here's my version of the startbar.

Also, I noticed the bug in the small close/min/max buttons. I actually like the buttons more-without the square around them.

Great looking theme, very clean! :)

I don't usually use dark themes, but I am using this one. Great work. (Y)

[lassekongo83]

First update complete. :)

-CaptionButton, frame and progressbar fixes.

-Calibri substyle.

-Startbutton fix on the Tahoma substyle.

-Other small fixes.

[ViperAFK]

great theme, even better than the first.

[tehmemories]

I don't like how you made the start button image smaller :(

I also found a bug with the min/max/close buttons-in your updated version.

[hotdog666al]

:D

Nice!

[jakuum]

Very nice. I like :)

@tehmemories: I'm aware of the high placed caption buttons. I just need to figure out where the margin values can be found, then it should be fixed in the next update.

Does anyone know where to change the top and bottom margins for the captionbuttons in Stylebuilder? I need to place them in the center of the captionbar. :o

[tehmemories]

I'd actually take the caption buttons off. It looks a lot smoother without them. But that's me personally.

[lassekongo83]

Yup, captionbuttons removed. :)

The new update also includes a new wallpaper and the Foobar2000 config. The size of the startbutton is also increased. :)

it seems you have given up on this but if you want to solve this bug here is a little howto:

-increase the Bitmap size of the CaptionButton.bmp (the one which is solid "magic pink") from 18x144 to 20x160

-then change the ContentMargin of each CaptionButton to "1, 0, 2, 0"

-change also the ContentMargin of the SmallCaptionButton to "2, 2, 2, -2"

you could add the bug fixed version as a substyle :yes:
