AgEnTsMiTh Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 none of my posts are intended to be bad just tones get taken the wrong way over forums.i look at the images, i come to a conclusion, i am not wrong because it is my opinion. you don't seem to notice positive things i say either. but i'm surprised that in 6 years, you still enjoy making maximal chunky glossy themes, they're not elegant and professional personally =\ 586273036[/snapback] Ok, you have made your opinion known, can we move along now?

BMac Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Needs a compact start menu, very badly. Also an update would be nice. 586273540[/snapback] As a close friend of Winswy, I'll make sure it gets a compact start menu. ;) I can't live without one.

armagan Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Great looking theme. My favourite colors. Hope to use it soon :) Btw, please have a compact menu and green color for programs list in start menu version in style. I liked green version of the programs very much.

ledzepp14 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 (edited) Hey Winswy, great looking VS so far. I was wondering, did you change the clock and system tray area? In this screenie you showed: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=...=post&id=133341 , the blue background is gone. I really liked how it looked originally: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=...=post&id=133050 Could you please keep it that way or make an option for it. Also, I'm hoping you'd make a compact start menu as well. Other than those suggestions, this looks sweet. I'm loving the colors.. delicious. Oh, and please keep the leaves as well.. they make this VS look elegant. Keep up the good work Winswy. Can't wait for this one to be done! :yes: Edited July 31, 2005 by ledzepp14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riz360 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Looks very nice so far, I'm amazed at how much ciriticism there is. Dont be put off, its a pretty great WIP. I hate to say this after seeing everyone else criticise it but in the start menu, does that yellow line need to be beside the icons, the text is already highlighted in green so its pretty clear its been selected. Just a small quible. You rock! :punk: cant wait for it to get released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidon Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 I am looking forward to this theme. :yes: The only thing I don't like is color of start button. That's looking ugly to me, green (like tray area) or blue would look much nicer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodwork Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 It's looking really good so far, only think I don't like is that little yellow chunk on the all programs menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winswy Posted August 7, 2005 Author Share Posted August 7, 2005 i may scrap the yellow highlight on the all progs depending on any other comments about it. The start button cycles Blue > Green > Orange, in accordance with the Default > Hot > Pressed states in other areas of the VS. Gonna TRY knock out caption buttons today.

jukeboxhero52 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Yeah, The yellow highlight chunk doesn't look very appealing. Also, I think that the rounded edges on both green boxes and blue taskband boxes should be the same. I would prefer if you either make the green less round, or make the blue more round. Other than that, the only thing I don't like is the winflag in the start button; it looks too big to fit. Maybe make it smaller by a pixel on top and bottom? No matter what you do this is lookin pretty awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I planned from the begining to make this VS combine the rounded rectangle buttons with more rounded shapes in other areas. I dont see any reasin why the two cannot interact and i beleive that some areas of the VS are better suited to one or the other. I Hope to obtain a nice balance and not go totally one way or the other as most VS's do. I may look revisit start button before its all said and done.
