MonkeyClaw Veteran Posted August 18, 2004 Veteran Share Posted August 18, 2004 From my knowledge, making fav and search on right can be done by make all buttons except things we want in shell32.dll transparent and that's unacceptable for me. About theme, yes. It'll be included in LTP7 which is much smaller than previous version. no no no, not the buttons or icons, jsut the seperators. the lil seperators that go between like groups of buttons on the toolbar, not the buttons itself. u can have an infinite amount of seperators on the toolbar so u can move the search and favs buttons over to the right while the back and foward are on the left. u can also have other buttons too, cause they arent transparent its just the seperators. Try out inspirat 2 and u will see what i mean. its a nice lil trick and if my print screen key worked i would show u. but no the buttons are not transparent just the toolbar seperators. Trust me if it was that way it would be unacceptable for me too. Check it out, try out inspirat 2 cause it should be simple it seems (i have no theming experience, lol) and u get the longhorn effect but u still have all the buttons. Also when is LTP7 due? or like a intermediate version of 6 that has sp2 support? oh yea i was wondering, on the shot in the post above, can u make the shell style like that?

MonkeyClaw Veteran Posted August 19, 2004 Veteran Share Posted August 19, 2004 i really think it would make ltp7 so much better, u could really have a nice longhorn looking desktop with the toolbar like that. It looks killer with the inspirat 2 theme. good luck!

Thrawn Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 I really don't think that such a theme is good unless the back/forward buttons are joined like the way they are in longhorn. That's very important, and if someone could do it in XP, they'd be skinning gods.

A.K.R. Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Windows X is already doing the theme, guys. It's no longer vapourware nor is it a fake theme, although you will have to find some program to do the transparency.

stevonw Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 I dont mean to insult you or anything...but that pic on the last page doesnt really look 2 Much like the Longhorn on the first page :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/166411-longhorn-glass/page/11/#findComment-584403994 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windows X Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 I dont mean to insult you or anything...but that pic on the last page doesnt really look 2 Much like the Longhorn on the first page :( Please know that's my own theme not pretend to make it like DigitalFreedom. But you can use others from me such as Keynote for the same concepts. My last screenshot looks similar to this. I use inactive Jade elements for that. Aurora from AeroXP.net Attached pic is Keynote.
