Dazzla Veteran Posted July 18, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 18, 2005 Yay for the radio buttons, not too sure on the titlebar text though. I really liked what you had going on with the glow, I wonder what it'd look like but with just a little less glow and different colour text, the text looks rather flat compared to the normal version. This is just nit picking really, it's a top, top quality port :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNay Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Looks really good but in the screenshot on page 1 of this thread it shows a mac monitor for the My Computer icon, this is meant to be Longhorn not Mac :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PureLogic Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Perhaps this is just a personal preference thing, but is it possible to make the glow on the text for the active titlebar a little more subtle, it seems quite hard to read for me. Fantastic theme though, love the caption buttons as well, I've no idea how you done it, looks excellent though. 586230637[/snapback] I agree, I tried it out on my Windows box and it really is hard to read.

Malisk Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 (edited) I dont see anything wrong. All the toolbar is blue. except the inactive elements.The original titlebar color is not light grey, is transparent (when the transparency is not applied I think is black or dark grey) and the title bar text is blue not maroon. 586230001[/snapback] Sorry, don't know where I got maroon from, lol. Anyway, I thought the titlebar was transparent in a silver like that in the previous build if you don't use DWM transparency. :huh: It looks pretty silverish to me, just semitransparent. Here's what I'm talking about: Longhorn: Your VS with 30% transparency: Another way I can see it is that the white halo around the title bar text melds into the title bar background color in Longhorn, which seems to tell the title bar background is pretty close to white. Actually, the 3D face color in your VS seems far closer to the actual thing to me now that it turned 30% transparent too, only too blue (which it should be), but the brightness seems about right.

GCNaddict Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 pff, just checked it. kol's is way better. 586227780[/snapback] kol's isnt the actual theme. the actual beta 1 theme doesnt carry the glass into the windows. thats only for DWM, and I feel that its rather off-putting when black-glass is used in a theme Ill stick with Jemaho's real interpretation of the beta1 theme :) ??? since when? 586226887[/snapback] The segoeUI theme is on my *legit* XP CD :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzla Veteran Posted July 19, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 19, 2005 Well it's obviously not *legit* since it doesn't come on any XP CD unless you've made a custom one. But then that's not what we're talking about and you know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightRider Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 sogoeUI comes with XP??? i dont think thats right. MS made the font when they started on LH. Btw, kol, can you make a silver/white version of your theme? thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xzan Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Very very cool theme.

On the other hand, in my opinion, Jemaho's taskbar looks much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
