Well i've finished the style.



This is the Plaquemod style. It's a mod from the original Plaque style which wasn't completely finished. I've bugfixed it and changed/added some things, to turn it in too a workable theme. Hope you enjoy this one. Credit goes out to the unknown author who invented the plaque style.

The author used many png transparancy which looks really good, for example the placebar buttons. Shame he didn't finished it himself.

Credit goes out to the unknown author.

It does come in green too. biggrin.gif Nice work DJP.

And if we search the board at themexp hard enough we may find the original artist. I remember he once posted there asking for advice. Maybe we can find him that way.

HOLY CRAP! I FOUND IT!!!

But no email addy and his site is dead too... ermm.gif
DJP
Thanks!

smile.gif

Now i can give the man credit.

And his style is based on Plastic Style by wow.

hehe, i never heard of that one.



Credit for the plaquetheme goes to Raimund
Romsi
DJP ist totally right. The Plaque Style was done by Raimund who was inspired by the WOW Plasitc Effect. The reason why he never finished it is that he startet working on a web based computer game (browser game) which still is in development.



I am sure he is happy that someone finished his work. Best greez to both developers. DJP and Rai



By the way: The WOW Plastic Style is not a Visual style. It's just the blue plastic effect of the sphere for instance and was set up by Linnea Dayton and Jack Davis in their Photoshop WOW Book.

It is a respect issue more than newbie-ism. I respect everyone so i wouldnt complain. If someone takes the time, and puts effort in his or her development, i respect it greatly. That is a great achievement. The theme looks great, much respect, keep up the good work.

Get a life, u dont like the man's theme dont complain, if ur so smart and know about themes and how u want them to look, then im sure you wont have a problem downloading StyleXP and modifying it for your own personal use. Now **** off and stop Posting just to get ur post rate up and instead of critizizing the guy, why dont u tell him on what he needs to improve instead of demanding. Damn some people just dont deserve an IP adress, its sad how they will pass those out to anybody these days. tongue.gif [/B]




Lol I just thought I would point out that you called them newB's but you think that you edit themes with StyleXp.. interesting..



I think that you are the one that should be quite. If they think there is a modification that would help the theme, then they can say it. You cant stop them. Without feedback, all themes would suck. Look at Sosumi. There was lots of feedback given in order to make it better and see what people like. I actually agree with these two guys. The start button is huge because it is an ad for the theme. I would like a flag also. So are you gonna call me a newb? Go ahead. Dont try and rip on them for posting their thoughts.



b.t.w. 700 posts. Go ahead and call me a newb.

i'm a newb and i'm not complaining. actually, i jsut got tired of my old user name and changed it. but, i never complained about a theme then either. the way i look at it...if a person spends his/her time creating themes, wallpapers, or icons and allows us to use them at no cost, why should i complain? i have no artistic talent and i appreciate the themers who do.
Iguanadon
looks great DJP thanks for the addition... and also thanks to the original artist... i saw this theme several months ago and looked around and found it... now its complete. Thanks again.





peace,

bandog you need to tone it down a lil bud.... constructive criticism is fair... but lets not start attacking everybody.
DJP
Please calm down everybody, i don't want to see this thread closed because of flaming.

Raimund designed the startbutton, and i personally think it looks very cool.

I can change it ofcourse to a windowsflaggy in a bubble.

But what will be the next?

The plaque logo is also in the startmenu twice, does that have to be removed also?

Then there isn't much left of the original plaque style, imho.

i liek this mod a lot

it is the best one i have ever seen and of course i installed it

there is only one question i have:

many websites like neowin and others have a specific colour for their scrollbar. if this is the case the scrollbar is not displayed in the great aqua-style of plaquemod but in the normal windows-style. is there a possibility of disabling the colourchange so that i always have the aqua-scrollbar?
schnurzgelaber
or could you edit plaquemod so that the colour of the scrollbar in internet explorer can be changed and the scrollbar still is in aquastyle? so if a website wants a green scrollbar the scrollbar should get green and still be plaquemod-style

this would be teriffic
DJP
I'm afraid i can't do anything about that.
thankihiren
i edited this theme

how is this?
