Free Style Visual Style and Active Desktop

[Osiris]

Okay well apparently ive already signed up for THemeXP and I cant find the email with my login details and they dont have a lost your password option? so what to do now. Will make it a tid difficult to upload it to there now.

[conundrum]

[User_Deleted]

agian looks great cant wait to try it out !!

NICE WORK

[sunnyy4]

Orisis: I'm really eager to get your really kick-@$$ theme!!! How about you just sign up for some free web host, upload the file there, and let us know of the URL?

[davidmiles]

I'll happily help sort it for a 1600 x 1200 desktop - although all I can offer is to try it out and send you screenshots and a report of any bugs

this is just getting to be a pain in the ass, sorry everyone for the inconvience. I signed up for xptheme.info a nice lil site but the confirmation email they sent me takes me too some crap, they must be having server problems.

And themeXP well there just pathetic.

So conundrum if youll be so kind to host them ill get the file to you tomorrow, I still want to fix the desktop upa little but for the first release providing it fits in the zip the desktop will only ship with a 1280 resolution.

Anyway Ive changed the ShellStyle, made it more fuller I guess you could say. And worked on a cpl more things on the theme.

Anyone know of any free hosts that allow zip uploads / downloads?

wow thats a really phat theme!!! but uh... i think that you should do something with the taskbar. to me it seems to plain... maybe add some lines or something, or some color variation.., :) lol. but i do like how the box around the selected window in the taskbar is.

keep up the good work

I went to take a look at that xptheme.info site, looks like it is probably just someone running a site off their own machine or something, as they are using DNS2GO for URL redirection. No wonder you had problems. :s

As for themexp.org, I've always had good luck with them and generally like the site, sorry you've had such problems with them. You never can tell I guess... :ermm:

Anyways I think the visual style is awesome, at the very least in looks, and I can't wait to try it out. Hope you can get everything resolved and keep up the good work!

[Osiris]

well thanks for your comments just to adress them

The taskbar will remain how it is, It goes well with the desktop and too many colors tend to make things look terrible.

THemeXP is fine but I have already signed up way back when I was making Longhorn themes. Anyway I dont have the email with my password /login in it and they dont have a forgot your password option?

so I cant get back in there unless i make a new email account which im not going too.

Bu thankfully Sunny44, I hope thats your nickname. Has sent me toa site [free] that has great stats so im going to run it off that. So twill be up hopefully before I goto work tomorrow.

[conundrum]

i cant wait to get my hands on it and try it

[Snowstorm]

I can't wait to try it! I LOOKS SO COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL! :D

[Thantos]

So when is it gonna be released?

[RodneyCK]

Yeah, what's the hold up again?

[P]

Yep we are all getting ****ed off here .. jk lol

Looks cool cant wait :))

[Osiris]

how would you guys feel about a beta release of the visual style and desktop, even if the dersktop isnt fully functional?

[Tesseract]

I would rather wait for the fully functional version, but I could look at the beta.

[P]

Where did you say we could d/l it from ...hehe

[Osiris]

hrmm see what I mean I share codyg11 view, I dont want to release it half assed otherwise it will just be ruined.

but I dont know that I actually have the technical ability to finish it, ah yer I do but it might take some time.

[P]

Nothing wrong with putting out a beta thou :)

[Jessterw]

You could always just release the visual style right now, and then the desktop later.

[Thantos]

Very true we could give input on it.. The desktop is a big project.. Its up to you on what you want to do.. I'll understand...

It is always better to have a full rather than a beta anyway...

[Jessterw]

Good point Thantos, I get tired of all the betas some authors put up. I was just thinking that if the visual style was released as a beta (more like a release candidate I'd bet) we could all test it out and find any kinks or problems, while Osirus works on the desktop (freeing him up somewhat to do so).

[Wortmanov]

I really love it man!!! I was just wonderin' if you're gonna include a 800x600 version as well. BTW If u need any a place where the files can be hosted, i have some space left.

Well its 3am and what better time for a Launch Party.

The Freestyle has landed.

"Critically acclaimed as a pleasure palace for the eyes

This Visual Style sets the standards."

- I just pulled that out my ass, but it sounded alright hey?

View the Official Osiris Media Beta Site Here

Or Alternative Jump Straight to the Freestyle Here

The theme has also been uploaded to ThemeXP. So if you download it from there, please vote.

Eitherway it ships with a Beta of the desktop unfortunely on in 1280 * 1024.

Well anyway now we can get on with the work at hand, which at this point in the early morning will be sleep. I sincerely hope you all enjoy.

Theme set... Rating = **** of 5

A star was taken because I had some difficulty implementing the theme. I would've taken another away because the Active Desktop was not working, but realizing that Orisis needs encouragement for making such a good theme, I'll keep it at a 4-star theme!
