Love the colors and I think you should use these caption buttons

Looks crap no.gif . Not only does it look crap but alot of elements are from the Visual Style Storm by Dustin rolleyes.gif
Relativity_17
Looks like a slightly recolored version of Krenzo's Storm VS, with different caption buttons and an uglier start button...

If this is a rip off of Storm, then answer me why does Storm look like a rip off of Royale? rolleyes.gif

Good job Ortega, hope to see an array of colours in the final version! biggrin.gif
Dustin B.
I've never used royal, Storm was originally a mod of my K-OSX Tiger theme jackass. And the taskbar appears to be a recolored LHA taskbar, except for the buttons rolleyes.gif

the taskbar is the royal glass effect.
LHA isnt the only VS with this glass effect. there are many of them.
so.....

biggrin.gif Its very good VS the main purpose is to keep on trying and trying mad.gif i hat some crazy people who cant note a diffrence b/w certain VS you are quite good bro and here you go a drink from so cheers biggrin.gif
Dustin B.
it just frustrates me to no end, this is obviously a rip. Anyone who isn't blind can see that. To me Ortega is no better than yourbigfun except for the fact Ortega doesn't charge $$$. I've said what I've had to say, I'm reporting this thread, good day.
daydream nation
Yep, Krezno's right, Ortega's last effort a 'longhornish W9DProm mod' was also a craptacular rip pieced together from different Styles... including Storm also if I remember correctly.
insanekiwi
i remember other themes of yours. all were rips and you never got permission. besides that. it looks crappy. sorry mate.

Yeah, of course Storm is a rip of Royale, considering that they look exactly alike... rolleyes.gif

Are you blind or stupid?

Different colour, smaller , different start button. woohoo really unique there wacko.gif
The differences between these two styles are marginal if you ask me, people will always try to replicate looks and add their own style, this doesnt make it a rip imo, its someone elses interpretation.

this gradients @ taskbar are useless if user's taskbar is more one row vertically
have a look

Midnight Mick
Load up Firefox, it really throws the toolbar layout real bad. sad.gif

Also, just my personal taste but I don't like the mouseover affect on the start menu, maybe try for a dull white for the mouseover instead?

I'll keep on testing though. thumbs_up.gif

Make the taskbar color the same as the caption title color and maybe it won't look so stupid?
Relativity_17
Your continued lack of respect for the artists that you rip disgusts me.

This thread was closed because you didn't get permission to use elements from Krenzo's Storm VS. http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=321760

Now you continue to release this work as your own, even though from the screenshot, its obvious that your scrollbars are still recolors from Storm. This thread has been reported.
