Watercolor v4.3

[.....]

Still one bug keeping this skin away from perfection unfortunately:

hope you can fix this binary, this has to be the best look windows has ever had, its much better than anything ever released, even by microsoft

edit: this occurs when there are too many windows open for the start bar to display, so it moves them onto two lines (yeh,i know microsoft can put them into a menu, but i like them better this way :p)

wouldnt call that a bug since xp isnt supposed to use that resolution lol. :rolleyes:

[.....]

i use 1024, i just set it to 640 for a smaller pic

[Binary]

I've known about that bug since the very first version. Nobody has EVER mentioned it, in fact having that many buttons on the taskbar is very unlikely to ever happen. I think your just knitpicking now ;)

lol, i've always noticed it too, and it happens to me all the time, there are about 3 or 4 forums i browse, so when i get in from school i "shift-click" to open all the threads i want to view, i often end up with 40 or 50 open IE windows

i've just never mentioned it really, i always assumed someone else would've noticed it

sorry if you think it's nitpicking, and if you've noticed it since the beginning, i assume you can't fix it

either way, its the best, and most polished theme around

heh, i'd suggest looking into mozilla, phoenix, or opera, or even crazy browser or netcaptor. :p

really cleans that up.

we still waiting for a theme with the new shellstyle? :cry:

[.....]

i have tried opera for a few months (registered), but it seems to screw up the layout or some pages, or some aspects of pages dont work properly, so i've gone back to IE

wish there was some way to add the mouse gestures to IE

[sinatosk]

But you CAN have those mouse guestures in IE and Windows Explorer, and you can use it for other stuff too...

and customizeable for other stuff like Winamp, Mozilla, Trillian, whatever you wanna do! =)

howcome the font on the start menu is different on the gray theme than on the blue theme?

edit: i mean the button... not the whole menu.

because the whole theme is *cough*ed up! thats why!!!!! I need to do a whole redo of the theme again, I just noticed that the large and extra large fonts modes got screwed up somehow too. This is what happens when you try to please everyone ;) and have 4 diff colors to do it on.

/me goes crazy :woot: :blink: :wacko: :x

[RaQ]

claim down man,

if your 50+ you shouldnt be using watercolor therefore.. you don't need large or EXTRA large fonts come on now.

toxxic,

i've been dieing to get trillian pro.. well i have it.. whistler skin in ergonomic so it matches my watercolor desktop man post it or send me it something please! my email is [email protected] remove nospam.

[.....]

i dont really like grouping, as it's akward when you've got 40-50 windows, if its on the taskbar its just one click,

not click, scroll to the right window, click

New version with Tim's fix, system tray fixes, and large/extra large font fixes.

Watercolor 4.2.3

I will worry about your "bug" andrewfee, come next major release. Right now I dont think it's affecting that many people :)

[Timan Veteran]

lol nice, binary check pm's :blink:

[XzyluM]

Awesome. Watercolor still kicking I see. Just got back into Neowin after being idle for awhile. Been using Watercolor ever since. Good job Binary. As far as andrewfee's bug goes, I really see no need to even worry about it. Having 40-50 windows open at a time is just ridiculous. :wacko:

[.....]

ok, thanks binary, like everyone's said, its not a huge deal anyway

edit: yeah, i can see how it would seem ridiculous, but thats just how i use my pc :p

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

Binary, just wondering how did you make the installer? With winrar or something else.

p.s. Watercolor is the greatest theme ever made
