?

improving...

but how about something more like the intensity of blue that neowin has. except a little brighter.

[edit]

actually, now that i think about it, that might be a pretty good idea.

lots of the themes i use, have different colors.

and i spend most of my time on my computer, lookin at neowin.:D

so if the theme matches neowin well, that'll be really something!

***just something to think about*** ;)

[/edit]

That's funny, I never heard anyone complain about the purple of the original Rhodium edge? Hell arhra, just make the theme the way you want, it's your work. People, don't start nit picking over colors, the theme is still a work in progress. I'm sure arhra will release other colors over time if he sees a need.

i understand, but it seems that everyone would like to see this change from the purplish color.

and i can't speak for arhra, but i would think that it's better to say all these things while it is still a work in progress.

lets say no one says anything, and he finishes the whole theme using the original color scheme.

then everyone starts 'nit picking'...i doubt he would be really happy to do it then.

esp when he puts out betas for BETA TESTING.

if you don't agree, speak up arhra. but you seem really accepting of our requests.

so again, keep up the great work.;)

No, what I was saying was let him finish the first theme then make your color suggestions. Bug reports yes but how the hell does recoloring the original theme work out bugs? All it does is slow down the progress. Like you said let arhra speak for himself but I would like to see this theme hit the streets asap without recoloring it 50 shades of blue first.

well the original blue is gonna stay as the default, mainly because i can't be arsed going through and changing all the graphics for the litestep theme... (although i may get round to a deeper blue version of it eventually).

anyway, i've been fiddling a bit more (aren't stylebuilder's colorization options great? ;) ), but at this point, i've got more important things to do (like get the logoff/shutdown buttons done, the programs menu needs overhauling, etc).

if you really want it a particular shade of blue, feel free to import it into stylebuilder and colorize it yourself :p

personally i absolutely loved the original purple color, if for no other reason than simply because it didn't look like very other theme/color combination out there.

if another color(s) is to be added, at least keep the original in the final release so those that didn't want a change will still be satisfied.

having choices is what theming is all about anyway, right?

good luck sorting it all out arhra!

[EDIT] oh, i see arhra beat me to it! excellent! :D [/EDIT]

understood.:p

i can wait though. esp since i'll be happier to see the version that i'll be happy use. not gay to use.:p :D ;)

minor issues:

- with a double-height task bar, the top & bottom lines jam right up against the edge of the blue tray box. looks like the spacing is just set too large between the lines - dunno if that can be changed or not...

- the name: rhodium edge ii - eh. how about rhodium edge reloaded??? ;)

and i like the blue you've chosen - don't change that.

keep up the great work!

but i'm surprized you didn't make the log off and turn off buttons rhodium, and the start button too, and the all programs button.

and maybe even include a wallpaper that you think goes with rhodium edge vII

rhodium edge vII beta - beta As in still in development. It's not even in the "Completed Visual Styles" forum. I'm sure arhra won't disappoint when he does release this as final.

"subliminal message" (arhra think orange and black) :D

OMFG!!!!

I am going to officially switch to litestep JUST for this theme!!!

/me hugs arhra

but uhh arha... can you do me (and Dazzla) a huge favor... and sorta incorporate this (http://images.deviantart.com/large/screens...s/dt2k20505.png) into the theme... if you did i'd love you forever LOL. i'm really talking just about the minimize/maximize/close part of the toolbar... thats the best part...

but otherwise... keep up the good work!!!

@nemo, I think that's what you're talking about. arhra already added that back into the theme from our prior begging :D

oh... yeah you are right LMFAO...

i'm still really waiting for the litestep theme.. that is what i really want... hopefully it'll be released soon :/

    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline.
