Update 3/26/03 - Fixed Blue and Green Shellstyles, start button changed to the one with 'Start' text, minor cosmetic fixes.

Update 3/25/03 - New start menu, new startbuttons (alternates with 'start' text can be found in the 'Goodies' folder), Gray color scheme added, Black color scheme made darker, winamp skins updated for 2.9, taskbar buttons now vertically aligned when taskbar is on top for non-SD version, wallpaper updated, 1 new wallpaper for the Gray scheme, bsplayer skins added, other minor fixes.

Personal use aside, please ask for permission before you start any work using my bitmaps, wallpaper or anything else I've created and do it by pm or email, not in this thread as it will likely be missed. This includes art's winamp skin, if you use any part of it to make a skin for another program you must ask him first. Thanks and good job to those who have contributed to Classix. smile.gif

You have to use reshack to edit explorer.exe, replace bitmap#167 (if your using pro, not sure about home) w/ the new ones from classix

proph, I dont think that thats a theme fault but an explorer fault, like the same thing that happens in office XP
RaQ
I was going to suggestion KelmEdition or RaQedition but it sounded lame.

Since its your account when using your account why not like DarknessEdition MAHAHAHAHAH. laugh.gif

A shellstyle is the file tha handles the appareance of the advanced task, you can enable them in the folder properties smile.gif

Okay, so there's no way to fix it? Because I can't read a god damned thing man, my eyes are KILLING me.. aghhhhh it ****es me off cause the THEME is perfect, then I can't even browse through my comp without going blind.

try to increase the fonts size in the appareace/advanced button in nyour desktop properties smile.gif
proph
Okay, let me try that real fast.
proph
Okay, cool, I just switched the whole font System to Large Fonts, which kind of doesn't coencide with the Trillian Skin I'm running, but it fixes the font problem. But.. is that a bug? sad.gif

I wish I could keep the title bar font sizes "small" but have the explorer fonts the same size. Hmmm.. crappy world. realmad.gif realmad.gif
Jessterw
proph: I believe if you change the Icon font size it should fix the problem somewhat (be warned this affects both font size in Explorer windows but also on the desktop).
proph
Hmmm okay, let me try that.
proph
Ah okay what worked well, is setting the msstyles settings to "Large Fonts" and then going into the Advanced section and setting Active/Inactive Title Bars to the Verdana 7 point setting. Then all explorer fonts and desktop fonts are at size 8. Sweetness. smile.gif
Jessterw
I'm beggining to think we need a FAQ on "tweaks" for Classix wink.gif
proph
Agreed. w00t.gif
gigatexel
Thanks Saint Dark for uploading a 'lite' version to DeviantArt, good idea wink.gif

jagedEdge: Damn you for finding that tongue.gif j/k I know what that is, it's one graphic in the shellstyle that I didn't recolor.. oops. whistle.gif

proph: Glad you got that all sorted out. smile.gif

jesterzwild: lol love that sig! w00t.gif
