Ok, so most of these look like font gliches. I did re-add tahoma as an alternative font. Set it to "Large Fonts" to switch to Tahoma. It would be nice to have it actually say Tahoma, but I've never sat down and figured out how to do that. Anyway, I think this should fix most (all?) of the problems you posted, save maybe the last one. I still like tahoma even if some button text gets cropped, but maybe I should have it set to Tahoma by default? Hope that helps, and as always suggestions are welcome.

Oh ya, and thanks Suicide for the quick response :).

Other bugs:

1. Extra large fonts setting is missing a bitmap for the close button and uses the Verdana font, which causes font bugs:

2. This might be just a Firefox bug, scroll-list buttons look like they're cutoff on three sides:

3. In the black style, which I don't know if anyone actually uses, the unselected window's min/max button has a single pixel border on the inside:

4. One thing I really would like fixed is to move the tasktray icons down so they don't come so close to the top edge of the tray:

The startbutton looks like it's coming off the top edge too.

Requests:

1. Make quick launch text on the taskbar black for all styles:

I'm gonna start jumping people's cases if they don't use www.imageshack.us alternatively for screenshot posting. I have seen quite a few broken links and 404 errors browsing these forums, and this day and age, screenshots should not be broken or 404ed! :angry:

About the skin: no comment

I can't see it due to frackin 404.

Is it that hard to visit deviantart.com and see the image there? http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/8066296/

The original post is nearly a year old, lots of thing could have happened to the pics from then.

If you need to host it, email me the file at [email protected] and I will host it for you.

i'm glad you like it...

sorry but only the black and luna substyles have been re-done...

i could do the rest of them too...

escaflo: i'm gonna mail you the current state (beta-sort-of)...

Is the tray icon bug fixed? Does the tray look like what you have in the screenshot or is that an applet of somekind?

I use the Plastik and Slate colors if that helps you decide on which colors to fix. :D

Btw, Deviantart.com is the best place to host this.

Anyway, nice work.

Tray icons fixed, i hope :)

(That's the gant volume icons there, no apllet or smth)

Small list of changes:

-Tray "buttons" -a lot thinner

-Fonts, most of them

-Captions, smaller too

-Start Button

-Shellstyle (some style i had lying around, don't like it, kill it)

I'd like to make the scrollbars thinner too, but when i do that, the stripes on them dissapear (i'm no stylebuilder expert). Some help maybe ?

At least now it's a perfectly usable theme... :p

I'll post it on deviantart when it's done.

Thanks for the positive relpys...

Cheers

all substyles done

no more bold

that's it

my work is done

enjoy

would be nice to make a beige instead of grey plastik...

maybe i'll tinker some more, maybe not...

i'm not gonna post it on deviantart for now, so could someone host it ? (escaflo again? )

mail me

cheers...

:whistle:

    • LOL. Can't even quote and edit a comment correctly. Figures you're a Linux user.
    • I have disabled it, but the app is still taking space. I have a Mac and it is only possible to disable Ai on that, but I think that bit does get rid of the AI components after a while. What we are told is that we agree to all this when we use the devices as it is in the end user agreements, their software, they can do what they like. I doubt that any bill will happen in the U.S, the government there are in league with big tech firms. The E.U maybe, they seem to have some guts when it comes to tech companies. The U.K is not in the E.U, but some things still affect us. Our government is as gutless when it comes to tech companies as the U.s government.
