kiszmai Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I like it, nice style but very unusable to me because of the small size of the fonts. I can't use it cause I can't see the text in this style, but nice anyway.

grayhouse Posted April 11, 2004 Author Share Posted April 11, 2004 I like it, nice style but very unusable to me because of the small size of the fonts. I can't use it cause I can't see the text in this style, but nice anyway. The readme included in the style explains all there is to know. Simply increase the size of the fonts in Display Properties and you'll have the exact same style font only with a choice of 8 or 9pts. Also make sure you have "smooth edges of screen fonts" checked in "Display Properties > Effects" Otherwise this font will look less then stellar.

grayhouse Posted April 11, 2004 Author Share Posted April 11, 2004 very very nice, good work theres a couple of bugs though, shellstyle only works for the first theme variation on my pc. and there is a problem with check boxes (pink outline) : go to tools -> folder options -> view I do seem to have problem when viewing the checkboxes in folder options, but as you can see mine are black not pink :crazy: But this is good because now that I am experienceing the problem I can fix the problem. I should have an update ready sometime tonight, so be sure and check back :) As for the shell, I'm not experienceing that problem. It works all the variations of the theme on my end. What way are you applying the shell? Is anybody else experiencing this problem with the shell?

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted April 11, 2004 Subscriber² Share Posted April 11, 2004 looks like this on mine but i bet the bugs just the same thing :) i noticed under the "shell" folder for the theme there is only a folder called "normalcolor" i believe there should be 3 folders, one for each substyle??? its like this with other themes i have good work Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/156602-vs-pop/page/2/#findComment-1958089 Share on other sites More sharing options...
grayhouse Posted April 11, 2004 Author Share Posted April 11, 2004 How do you get rid of these big menus? I don't know why your menus are doing that. It looks like your running the style with large fonts. I just tried large fonts and it still doesn't do that so I don't know what to tell you. The menu should have split into multple panes. Hell, what you got is what win98 used to do :huh: One thing I did notice is that your running your taskbar at the bottom. If you're gonna do that it's very important that you choose one of the style variations that ends in the extention "BT" for bottom taskbar. TT for top, BT for bottom. Thats why your arrow is pointing down instead of up and your lines across the taskbar arn't lining up. Does anybody ever bother reading the readme's. My next style I'm not gonna include one. Why bother.... Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/156602-vs-pop/page/2/#findComment-1958137 Share on other sites More sharing options...

d10p Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Yeah, the fonts are small as hell, especially in the adress bar, but I'm trying it out anyway. I also get the pink border. Hopefully we'll get that update to fix some of these problems :).

grayhouse Posted April 11, 2004 Author Share Posted April 11, 2004 very nice and simple. i just don't like fonts so small... must preserve the eyes. Download the style and read the "readme' If you have already downloaded the style READ the "readme" where I explain the choices regaurding the said issue. Or simply just read the thread here where I have allready covered this. This is the last time boys and girls.....

dswskinner Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I love this style, but is it possible to get a non compact version? I like my start bar to be full sized.

justinpward Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 any chance that you would change the max/min/close buttons to not say pop. i think it could be really cool without that. just my two cents. theme looks great all around though. anyone planning a winamp skin?
