Fantastic ! smile.gif

What kind of icons do you use ?

Keep up the good work !

I'm bugged by all the Visual Styles where you have to have Y'z Dock / Toolbar / etc just to make it look complete. Y'z tools are really amazing, I just don't enjoy having little apps running simply to make the style complete.

This looks like a great style, but thumbs_down.gif for the Y'z dependency.

Uhh, what the hell are you talking about? The dock in the screen isn't even using a matching theme when compared to the VS, and the VS is complete in itself, yo udon't have to run a dock to use it?

If you need an example, look at the toolbar. That's Yz Toolbar. The VS is not going to look all nice and slick without it. I think the Yz stuff are sweet enhancements but I like it when a VS doesn't need to have them to stand on its own two feet.

... Visual Style? Sorry, I was transfixed by the fact that someone else had actually heard of The Butterfly Effect (Great Aussie band, by the way, if you're in to that style of music)...

Okay, so, the VS... To be honest, it doesn't really work for me. The whole thing is just so... innocuous? The start button, the caption buttons, the taskbar tray expand button. They're just so bland and nondescript. I like VS' where something jumps out at me and I'm left with the "wow, that's cool/creative/original" feeling.

Oh, and what media player is that? Or is it a Konfabulator widget or something?

That's kind of ridiculous to expect themes to all be designed around the default, ugly toolbar icons. If you're too lazy to reshack a handful of bitmaps or too much of a resource pincher to run Yz Toolbar, then don't expect such a nice look to your comp.

See this is why alot of people do not post there VS on this site. To many stupid people. realmad.gif

I think it is wrong to have this posted here. Did the person that made the VS post it on this site? NO!

Why are people posting for other people?
