Well its been awhile, but i've finally finished my long awaited version 2 of my "XBOX OS" theme.

However, what started as a simple modification turned into a total makeover and brand new theme. biggrin.gif



The theme was actually completed about a month ago and I've had it running on my computer ever since.....ironing out little bugs and stuff. wink.gif

This theme includes a default green color scheme as well as

a blue color version for those blue skinning fans out there =]



The theme also includes a matching shellstyle and a

new Xbox wallpaper I made for the release of this theme.



Download here:



[themexp.org] Xbox XtremeXP



[wincustomize.com] Xbox XtremeXP { WindowBlinds version }



A HUGE thanx goes to Frogboy and DJP for their support in making this theme possible....cheers!!



Also thanx also goes to the guys at - www.xboxxtreme.net

for support...and the name tongue.gif





Hope you enjoy smile.gif

p.s. A WindowBlinds version of this theme will be out very soon.... tongue.gif

Nice job! VERY orignal!



Any chance of getting a different start button with text or should we leave that up to ourselves?

Nice to see something different than the OSX ports and grey themes. Not that I don't like those themes, but sometimes you need something different. smile.gif



The captionbar is very nice, i love it! Good job, thanks! biggrin.gif
andy_rose
exellent work on this one, thanx wink.gif

i took the liberty of making a shellstyle for the blue scheme for my own personal enjoyment.tongue.gif

once again, thanx for a great theme!

how about a blue version of the wallpaper to match the blue skin?



i know xbox colors are black and green, but if your using the blue skin, that black and green wallpaper doesn't go very well together.

I can't believe this...... after all the talk about ripping and copyright penalties thats been going on lately.....I'm REALLY ****ed off that this guy gets away with it.



As far as i'm concerned....Its all talk and no action!!! :mad:



What, does themexp just let any theme be post without checking it....even though they "say" that u have to wait for approval. ohmy.gif



I'm sorry if this sounds hash...but this guy should be shot :dead: or banned atleast. I'm thinkin of taken down my theme and go elsewhere to post it.....



There seems to be NO sercurity for skinners at themexp!! .....and what really gets under my skin is that i emailed the moderators at themexp, post a commeny, under the ripped skin, for ti the be taken down IMMEDIATELY ......but NOTHING HAPPENS



Unsanity: You ask me what i'm going to do...... ??



Well as far as I'm concerned there seems like there is nothing I can do....which is a shame cause i "did have" alot of respect for themexp. I guess i'll have to hack the site and shut themexp down myself :evil:





Anyway, sorry for venting my frustration like that. Thanx by the way for all your comments...they really mean so much smile.gif

I've emailed them about 10 times to each addy on the site to remove it. lets see how long it takes or if they do to remove it.

nice 1 unsanity ..... smile.gif

Don't flame to much about ThemeXP.org - be happy that they host the Themes for you.



It's sure that this way of publishing Đ work is not correct. He should (must) ask for permissions before publishing any modifications on your works. But he didn't say it is his. He gave full credit to AquaJack and unsanity.



And second, there are many alternatives to host your files on other sites (e.g. devart)



But as I said it's surely not good what happened here.

[EDIT] ....just taking back what i said about themexp [/edit]
unsanity
i luv what they are doing but if they are not atleast gonna check the stuff dont bother!
Optimash Prime

unsanity

And i should really apologize for going over the top and saying things i shouldn't have...... (i go and delete and take back my post soon) ......so sorry Greg if u are reading this. biggrin.gif





Btw....for future reference below is an abstract from the email i got from themexp....very interesting...



"It's been removed, sorry about that.



We do scan everything that's submitted to ThemeXP, however it's quite impossible to expect us to download and install everything submitted to us......"



umm.... :ponder:



Anyway, thanx for ya comments again and yes there will be an update shortly.....



I've also done a WB version of this theme which should be out soon biggrin.gif
