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.

    • I do trust Apple probably more than these other companies with certain data, but I also do think (and it has been demonstrated that) Apple pulls a lot of shenanigans and always has for a long time.
    • Does your iPhone support the latest iOS version? Here's the iOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari It's that time of year when we get to know about the latest operating system updates for Apple devices. For iPhone, Apple previewed the iOS 27 update at WWDC 2026, where the company finally introduced an upgraded version of Siri. Apple typically supports iPhone models for up to five years. But it has been making exceptions in recent years (read iPhone 11). If you're wondering whether your iPhone is compatible with the iOS 27 update, here is the official list of devices: iPhone 17 Pro Max, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17, iPhone 17e, iPhone Air iPhone 16 Pro Max, iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16e iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 mini iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11 iPhone SE (2nd generation), iPhone SE (3rd generation) So, you can download the iOS 27 developer beta on up to 31 different iPhone models. There has been no change to the list of supported iPhones since iOS 26. However, it will expand to include more devices when the iPhone 18 series arrives later this year. To download the developer beta on your iPhone, go to Settings > General > Software Update > Beta Updates. Here, select "iOS 27 Developer Beta" from the list of choices to get the new update. In addition to iOS 27, you can try the developer beta versions of macOS 27, iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27, and HomePod software 27 on your supported devices. iOS 27 comes with improved Liquid Glass, which you can adjust using a new transparency slider. Apple said during the keynote that iPhone apps now launch up to 30% faster, new photos appear in the Photos app up to 70% faster, and AirDrop transfers work up to 80% faster. The new update promises to improve performance on older iPhones by introducing a new CPU Scheduler that supports devices all the way back to the iPhone 11. While iOS 27 is supported on older iPhones, it goes without saying that they'll lack several features due to hardware differences. For instance, iPhone 14/14 Plus and older models come with a notch instead of the Dynamic Island. Similarly, Apple Intelligence features are supported on iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max and later models.
    • The Radeon RX 9070 XT is right up there with the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
    • I don't know why someone said useless, but it does have that pesky kernel driver bundled, and it's in perennial turmoil. When it goes bad, it goes very bad, and it's impossible to predict when it will due to system differences. I know that they're in the middle of development for a major new version that will include a completely new driver, one that they expect will largely solve the problem, but that's a ways out and it's unproven at this point.
