Inevitable bug here. The Verdana font for buttons, no matter how well it fits with the theme, should be changed to the normal Tahoma because of things like this:

That's a screenshot of FileZilla's Site Manager, and the Save and Exit button text is cut off because the font is too large. This is only one example, the text cutoffs occur frequently in many applications.

Very well done...i might recommend a minor color difference in chevrons (taskbar chevron really could use lighter color) and maybe move the kde start button over to left and add a mouse over highlite...

Thanks for the great attention to details...this theme really is a keeper :-)

Very nice and usable VS, excellent colors and clear large font!

I personally use a large taskbar and when I have many windows open, they don't tile correctly in the taskbar but only one row is visible and I have to scroll to see all the other windows even there's room for another row... see what I mean in the attached screetshot... is there anything that can be done to fix this glitch?

Very, very good job though!

Cheers!

since the very beginning we've been well away of that bug, and personally i can deal with the text being cut off a little bit in return for having the verdana font on the buttons but a lot of people can't so what i've been experimenting with is using the different "font size" options in the display properties to have it be a choice.
