But I'd highly recommend people switch to using my WB version as it's more complete, usable and virtually bug free.

Any ideas as to why this is happening in the WB version?

Have any information to back up your uninformed claim?

Because I can tell you now your incorrect. If you want to express your opinion that is fine but do it with some intelligence and information to show why you feel that way.

Without that, its nothing more then a trolling and off topic.

BUMP! Just so that someone with some talent (ie not me) will update this as it is the best style available IMHO. Tried them all...keep going back to this one.

I think this needs to have the title of best theme ever made.

Windows Whistler testers were so stupid to chose Luna over this marvellous piece of art. In case You didn't know Watercolor theme suppose'd to be for XP Pro and Luna for XP Home

Not any more or less than one with "thick 3d big theme" would, because they're just images.

this is a great extension, I think the best one I saw, I think it's because of it's simplicity!

Just a suggestion...

It would be great if the taskbar would look like the XP Style, because for me, it's better than Classic Style.

thanks for this VS.

Just an update for my previous post...

You can also change the color of the taskbar that jives with the chosen color, for example, I chose Blue Watercolor, then the taskbar should be blue too.

Hope you can add this on your next version (I also hope that you're planning to create a new version)

..and you really must, because there are many fans of Watercolor

Thanks!

Great Job nevertheless

Sorry guys, as I've stated somewhere in this thread - I'm done with Msstyles. I will only be updating the windowblinds version, and making new WB skins, thats it.

Hey! I like this skin very much but I found some bug there... Let's see below

(Comparison of Classic Skin and Watercolor that show information about "checkbox" incorrectly.)

I think i fixed this in the Watercolor Lite Builds, they're more up-to-date than the plain watercolor builds.

holy crud, i had to register for the forum for the simple fact that I had been using water color light, and it didnt have the 3 row icon tray with the double taskbar, therefore not allowing me to see the time and mm/dd/yy date. Now its fixed. Muchas Gracias.

Anyone know where I can get that green SP2 wallpaper in the screenshot?? Also the blue and gray version? Really nice. i prefer 1600x1200 or 1280x1024. Thanks everyone. Been using this style for a year now instead of the default Luna.

Hi Binary,

Could I ask why? I would have thought msstyles were far better than WB considering they're built in and come with XP?

Just downloaded it, I'm using it right now. I just don't like how the taskbar is so...plain. =\ Is it possible to add some colour into it like the titlebars, or is that not going to happen?

Apart from the taskbar, I really like it.

its made to look like the Origninal Whistler theme, it was a 2000ish type theme, hence dull.
