?

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 :/

    • Because of the EU (a good thing) newer android devices been getting 5 years worth of security patches. Except some Motorola which found the loop hole, and offer ZERO updates. In addition, Google for years have been making where it can patch some stuff by updating the core Google Play Store itself.  As echoed earlier,  you take the security risk in to your own hand beyond supported.
