Not to be bitchy or anything, but what's wrong with people helpin out and posting some little fixes for people to use? No offense, but the creator doesnt really update anything for us often. So why not let us help out the little we can? This just goes to show that we have people that think this theme is worth the trouble and its a good project that can turn out damn good if it all works out.

Out of anybody, Tweaker should be the person being thanked for the constant work he's put into this. But no you guys gotta go and flame the f'uck outta him. Seriously, If I was him I woulda said 'f'uck you guys' and left you guys to sit and wait in the darkness for the creator to do all the work.

Just remember all this help goes to everybody's benefit. So whether you like it or not, dont be a flamer and run your mouth. Take what you can get

n00dle,

Perhaps you guys have already fixed the buttons. Until you do I made my own fix which can be ssen in the attachment. The button you created was nice but I personally did like the jagged edges. That's why I messed with your's trying to make a cleaner edge. I had also notice the same problem that 'shrike' had mentioned. My solutions was going back to a Microsoft type button but using colors that would match your vs. These buttons work on all pages light and dark without any problem.

I also worked on the arrows on the taskbar. Again, I just cleaned them up to make them sharper looking to the eye. They also now have a mouse over and when clicked on they light up the same color as the Start button.

Again, if I was too over zealous in posting fixes I apologize! Perhaps as StevoCF mentioned I should have at least asked first.

Any way the screenie of what I did for my version of your vs is below. If you want the buttons and taskbar arrows I'll posted them.

You have a point but who is flaming?!?!?! I said it in a polite way... and it was said that it'd be easier if we did the fixes because you'd have to compile the theme like 16 times a day

Yeah I could see that you werent takin anything out on him. But there were a few people that told him to stop spamming and then all the n00b kids backed him up.

But anywayz, I think most of the bigger more noticable things were pretty much fixed up by people, so there isnt really much else to do besides make different colors and change the 3d shadow color thingy.

So now its just up to you when you wanna release the whole package

n00dle,

Do you guys have a problem with me posting the fixes Escalade_GT asked about until you come out with you next update? I don't want to start getting flamed again.

Escalade_GT, you can go to the sight below and download 3D Color Changer. It's freeware and can be used to change the 3D Shadow Color to whatever color you like until the update of this vs is posted.

post what you want. but i'm not changing the buttons to look like that. the vs is based off winamp, therefore the buttons will stay rounded as in winamp.

you do understand that is the whole point of the vs, don't you?

Yes, I understand & I am not in any way asking you to change the buttons. I just changed them for my personal use. If others want to do the same that's up to them.

Thanks!

wow, very nice theme... im using it right now  there's just one small problem with it... maybe it's just me but whenever i restart my computer, all the icons in the system tray are gone... it's back up when you re-do the theme again

I'ts not just you, it's a bug that they are trying to fix I do believe...

    • Classic Outlook vs New Outlook — Which one do you prefer and why?

      By tsupersonic · Posted

      When you're in enterprise IT environment, you're kinda forced into it...otherwise I'm not touching any mail client for personal use.  I can't stand New Outlook. It's complete trash - half the features I need in (Classic) Outlook are just missing in New Outlook. I haven't talked to a single person who actually likes the new client. 
    • macOS ‘Golden Gate' unveiled with standalone Siri app, performance improvements and more

      I think it's cute that Apple is implementing their tools at precisely the same evolutionary level as other devices' tools. In other words, I see no innovation; it's "the same but different." "Hey Siri, help me write this document about shoes." Powered by Google. "Sure thing, while we're here, can I interest you on some Nike's? They're on sale at Target right now!"

      But apple has ASSURED us that this is private. So, it's private. I expect the same "leeway" shown Microsoft to be reflected here.
    • ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE is currently $159.99 on Amazon, down from $219.99. That's 27% off and $60 saved on a keyboard that combines retro and modern design, while being one of the most responsive and adaptable 75% boards available right now (purchase link down below). The ROG Falchion Ace comes with the HFX V2X magnetic switches that allow you to set actuation anywhere between 0.1mm and 3.5mm with 0.01mm fine-tuning steps. It also comes with Rapid Trigger, a feature that resets the key the moment you release it rather than waiting for a fixed reset point, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced games. And finally, an 8,000Hz polling rate should make the response time feel instant. The build quality is decent, with dense plastic and powder-coated aluminum, which is expected from a keyboard at this price point. There’s also the onboard adjustment wheel, which lets you tweak actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity without opening any software. For competitive gaming, the ROG Falchion Ace is hard to beat at this price. And those who appreciate old-school hardware, especially those white keyboards we’ve all grown up with, will likely also appreciate the looks of this keyboard. A carry case is included.
