Anyone willing to help me? :cry:

The start button from LE3 is bigger than the one in LE4, you will need to reduce the size of the start button to fit in LE4. You will also need an image editor that can do 32bit images for transparency, otherwise you corners of your start button will show up white. Hope this helps for you.

I'm planing one more update and after that I'm done with this theme. The update will include updated toolbar hover/click/pressed images. Also those in the save as /open windows.

YES! i can't wait till final release, it's been only 3 days and it has almost surpassed Kol's Vista thread in replies, i havent checked, but im assuming in downloads as well...you trully are one of the elite if not better...considering you beat an elite, i'll go with better :)

Black shellstyle almost complete... I don't know how to recognize the "search shellstyle" gradient in the UIFILE (and withall, 0001 or 0002?).

Are you on about the background gradient, then look for this part in UIFILE 0001:

background: gradient(argb(0,8,39,122), argb(0,72,103,186)

The colours are Hex, the hex values are as follows: the first is alpha, then red, green, blue.

So, 0,8,38,122 Hex (Ignoring the first Alpha '0'):

Red - 8

Green - 38

Blue - 122

This is inputted twice to get a gradient, the other being (from my shellstyle):

argb(0,72,103,186)

The best way to get these codes is from a paint program, I use Pant shop pro, then use the colour dropper tool or similar.

I hope that helps.

Thank you, I know the part about the colours... what I still don't find is that part of code (I tried to search in the UIFile but I didn't find it) :\

Great Community effort on this thread...As the discussions remained calm, and mature in nature.

@Boz, very-very nice Stefanka styled shellstyle.dll to match both Blue & Black colours!

I was initially discussing this with em3, and we all know that making shellstyles is a time-consuming effort, so when I saw his reply to 'please post up a link' for these top-style shellstyles, I immediately smiled!

:yes: :cool: ;)

I'm sure LE4's gained more popularity at a much faster rate than Watercolor ever could have. It has even had support from the author with encouragement! There's almost no comparison of quality and depth of the themes. Sure, Watercolor is simple, if I wanted simple I'd go to Classic. If you want beauty, I'd sure as hell hit up LE4!

^ I'm sure I would go for Classic if I wanted a simple one... But LE4 is simply AMAZING :yes:

Watercolor 4.3 Kicks Kuna ELement 4's ass.

Really? Those clear salmon light colors? Those lazy-made shellstyles? Those simple-squared-easy-to-do buttons?

I don't think so.

Clean styles can turn up to be good, but there's a line that divides the clean and the way-too-much-clean, and Watercolor crossed that line IMO.

    • Chrome is Google's commercial web browser product; it consists of their proprietary features (Googlified everything including profile sync) plus their chromium project barebones web browser. Google developers control the chromium project. The chromium project is the "core" for the web browser product from other vendors including Microsoft Edge (their own proprietary features), Opera (their own features), Brave (their own features), etc... The "downstream" teams at Microsoft, Opera, Brave, etc., can either integrate their original MV2-supporting code into future builds, or they can integrate chromium wholesale and simply add-on their own features/functionalities -- their 'current' build pipeline, so to speak. THIS is why changes at the chromium project affect so many products besides only Google's commercial Chrome browser. -- Edit to add: The chromium project is open-source, and is the piece that's Google's code contribution to the W3C and world wide web at large; there are no licensing fees for others to use the code in their own products... which is what they do. Other browser engines do exist (Firefox's for example) but it's nearly impossible to have both engines bundled into the same 1 browser product.
    • You're comparing settler colonies to colonized war torn nations. It's easy to become the richest by coming in and stealing other people's land, culture and resources.
    • ABP has become "old news" when MV3 started rolling out. They've gone downhill and is now simply irrelevant..... in my experience.
    • About two years ago, I switched to Brave and haven't looked back.
    • FWIW StatCounter has been trash for over 25+ years! Back in the day (circa 2000 and GeoCities pre-Blogger era), it was useful to paste a number on your webpage indicating how many visitors you had. In the ensuing 25+ years, they've grown in reputation and changed their ways... but their overall consumer value has remained abysmal. Serious marketing agencies only cite StatCounter when there's literally no other sources available to support any marketing claims! They are the absolute lowest threshold serious companies use to push any sort of narrative about this-or-that happening. Besides their credibility being what it is, they are forever subject to quality issues. They're so bad that my DNS-level ad-filter prevents me from even viewing their main website! HA!
