Any idea when v. 5.0 will be out?

I might have an idea ;)

I JUST got my new PC today (a Lightening Fast 2.53 Ghz!!!)

So now that I have a functioning PC, which doesnt get lagged by a simple sneeze, I can work on it again :) I do have version 4.1ish 2ish done, it just fixes some minor bugs and implements some requests. I'd love to hear ideas to further milk the idea, but it may not reach 5.0; theres not much left to do if anything really....

I am proud to announce (after another 6 or so months of nothingness), the NEXT WATERCOLOR UPDATE! :woot:

I have released Watercolor 4.2 to my webspace and soon to themexp.

Anyone else who wants to host the theme do to themexp's recent *cough* slowness and errors *cough* is free to do so :)

Changes include:

- optimised a bit more by reducing colours in some files, and also by multiple use of bmp's within each colour variation.

- added a feature? where you can now see date, time and day in the systemtray with only 2 heights of the taskbar.

- cleaned up some controls.

- changed a few controls to better match the original watercolor style.

I didnt start a new thread because it just isnt that big of an update.

I will also mush this in with the first post in this thread.

What the Future holds for Watercolor :blink: :

*shrug* I have no idea, thats why I need your suggestions and comments, to keep milking the life out of this theme and reach version 5! :)

So please feel free to add comments and/or suggestions to this thread, or you can always email me at:

kmkkid at hotmail.com

Thanks for your support :),

Chris

Hi Binary,

I just downloaded this theme from themexp.org, it's fantastic but I have one niggle.. whenever I maximise a window such as internet explorer I get a small 1-2mm border along the top of the screen wher it doesn't fill, I don't mean maximise with button but when right clicking start bar and tiling a window, maybe i'm just being a perfectionist but it'd be great if you could sort it. :)

thx. great theme.

can't, it's a limitation of the msstyle if you use transparency.

Sorry

    • Walmart was still selling the Apple Watch SE 2 on Black Friday in 2024. I got 1 for my mom and one for my dad for christmas.
    • But apple has ASSURED us that this is private. So, it's private. I expect the same "leeway" shown Microsoft to be reflected here.
    • ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE is currently $159.99 on Amazon, down from $219.99. That's 27% off and $60 saved on a keyboard that combines retro and modern design, while being one of the most responsive and adaptable 75% boards available right now (purchase link down below). The ROG Falchion Ace comes with the HFX V2X magnetic switches that allow you to set actuation anywhere between 0.1mm and 3.5mm with 0.01mm fine-tuning steps. It also comes with Rapid Trigger, a feature that resets the key the moment you release it rather than waiting for a fixed reset point, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced games. And finally, an 8,000Hz polling rate should make the response time feel instant. The build quality is decent, with dense plastic and powder-coated aluminum, which is expected from a keyboard at this price point. There’s also the onboard adjustment wheel, which lets you tweak actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity without opening any software. For competitive gaming, the ROG Falchion Ace is hard to beat at this price. And those who appreciate old-school hardware, especially those white keyboards we’ve all grown up with, will likely also appreciate the looks of this keyboard. A carry case is included.
