Hi,

Sorry about the long delay, but at last I've finished it

10 colours (including Luna style and normal taskbar (BlueNTB), each with shellstyle.

Heres a link on DeviantART:

b0se Classic Final

Screeny:



Comments welcome!

Will work on Winamp and Trillian skins after my coursework is finished, unless someone fancies a go at them

IT has finally come *basks in the angelic light flowing from it"

Marduk: I tried the compact start panel but couldn't get it to work, so instead of delay the release of this theme I'll have a fiddle with it again later. Think it might work quite well!

WOOT! You rock man! Make sure when you do it, you make the right side of the start panel hug the screen in vertical taskbar mode, theres one theme that doesn't do that(bluein).
I'm loving the teal
Ooops I thought you were going to reduce that space there

finally you did it,thanks man you rules
nice,simple and beautifull for eyes,good work!
Cheers!

I fixed it on the Blue style, but not the rest because it didn't really make that much difference. Looking back I should have but nevermind

I do like the teal too, but just recently I've been using the Luna style

Thanks for the positive comments!

pretty nice theme
keep up .

Great theme m8 ....

Radish.

i love the style....simplicity

Mmmm... very nice theme.

I just did a quick search of the board, and I might be wrong, but theres no B0se winamp skin?

Any plans for a brown scheme?

*downloads*

I believe I have found a small glitch, nothing huge as I dont use this fetature anyway and i doubt others do either but

Very nice! Its a keeper!!

mrk: Thanks for pointing that out, never noticed that

Marduk: Can't imagine many people wanting a brown skin to be honest, so I doubt it!

This is great! Finally the complete version! Thx for making this great theme! Now someone should make a Winamp skin (dont look at me i cant make them ).

very nice, though a prefer the boarderless taskbar icons

also, when switching to your theme from Windows XP the quicklaunch icons need reajusted which i think is i bug?

great theme though

Super Duper! Using it, and Love it!!

Only thing I could see that would make it perfect is having the quicklaunch icons/buttons a bit closer together. They are too far apart (imho).

Still one of the Best looking and functional styles around. GREAT work!!

Not notced that!



Thanks

I did try putting them closer together but it ended up looking clustered!

Maybe reduce the space by say only one or two pixels? That would add up if you had five or more apps in the quicklaunch area, and reduce the total area needed for the buttons/icons. Just a thought in case you didn't reduce by a tiny amount...

It's still on top of my "Favorite Style List", and I am enjoying it.

Thanks again b0se!
-------------------------

Great job as always, thanks!!! It is great to see this one completed.

Ack, where's the grey scheme!? ::Clutches chest, falls over and dies:: Wait - there *was* a grey in this at one time, right?

I wish the taskbar buttons were flat and quicklaunch wasn't so spaced out, but it's still an excellent style -nice, well put together and most importantly, usable. Glad the final's out... great job, b0se!

very nice.. running it now..

It seems the quick launch icons seem to bother a few people!

Theres a couple of other small things that I'd like to change also, so after I've done the trillian / winamp skins I'll update it, with more colours

riotkittie: Get yourself style builder, import my b0seClass.msstyle, then delete a colour you don't want. Then you can use the Colorize tab to slide the saturation to -100%, and press the New Colorized Scheme button, name it Grey et voila

3 mins work!

*bump*

!? ....

Radish.

There also seems to be a bug with MSN (v4.7 and MSNPlus! v2 at least). When you open the MSN window after it's been minimised, you get a thin line across it which only vanishes after you adjust the size of the window.

If you're still after pointers on things to add to the next build I would defo recommend something like the smaller starbar thing going on on some themes now!

like the one in minus4 - ( http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robbiekhan/3d...ISC/desktop.jpg )

I think it would be ace!

anoher classic theme im tired of them...why dont any mac like theme come out? btw, this is one of the nicest classic themes ive seen here

I'll definately add the option for a compact start panel in the next build. Will put grey back in also, think it would be a better choice than orange

and brown:P hehe, I can't wait! Whats the eta on the new build?

uhm new build? i thought the winamp and trillian skins were coming next.

/me is hungry for those babies.

Hey BOse, great theme, simple and very attractive.
I have a couple of screenies, wondering if they a faults or suppose to be that way

Heres the 2nd one

justinpward: They'll be done before the next build don't worry

StratuS: Thats very strange, the images you're looking at (title panel for shellstyle) don't even exist in the shellstyle itself! You sure you have latest version? Got no probs this end when testing...

BTW: Is there a post (or how-to) on how to do the compact start panel?

No, no... you too

Woot! Can't wait for the newest release!

thanks b0se. i just like to mix it up, and i like my skins to match. i'm sure they'll look sweet.

any time table on the new release?

*bumpity bump bump*

I have my final exams in a month, AND my final year project to complete (along with 15K word report), so I won't be updating it til after then I'm afraid.

However, when I do work on it again, the *real* final release will have the choice for compact start panel, winamp and trillian skins (all colours) and multiple wallpapers.

cool....we're now waiting patiently.

*waiting patiently* hehe I can't wait! It'll be great when its done!

Been using the latest build continuously since it first came out, and still love'n it!

If it's possible to fall in love with a visual style, this might be the one.

For now, Favorite here for sure!!

Thanks b0se, you and 'b0se Classic Final' definitely be very cool..

I download otherstyles as the screens look ace but everytime I find myself going back to b0se classic final

rox everyones box, tbh !

Thanks!

mrk: Love your sig btw

heh thanks - I believe I saw the animated blokey (whom I have dubbed "blah") as an avatar on one of the forums i frequent (may have been this one) I instantly had to have it, so much in fact that it was on my comp without me even knowing!

*ok I'll get my coat

lol
