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.

    • Microsoft's new Xbox Shutdown change promises massive power efficiency gains by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft has been delivering a lot of changes for Xbox Insiders to test in recent weeks, and today, another wave of changes aimed at consoles was announced. The latest drop is testing features that let users find mutual friends easier, customize their UI, and streamline wishlisting. When looking at an Xbox friend's profile, an option will appear to see mutual friends, perhaps to get a refresher on how you know that person. This will depend on the privacy settings. The same applies to when checking the profile of a person who is not in the friends list, offering a quick way to find out if this is a known connection. Next, Microsoft is giving the option to change how the 'Home' and 'Games & Apps' sections show off available games. There is a new poster style that users can enable for an "immersive library experience." "We’ve also made personalization settings easier to navigate and customize by separating Home and My Games & apps into separate sections," adds the company. "And to make personalization even more accessible, we’ve added new shortcuts throughout menus, so you can quickly jump in and tailor your XBOX experience the way you want." Moreover, heading to the store page of an unreleased game will now offer players the option to wishlist directly from the game card. Lastly, Microsoft is making a change to Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles that are in Sleep mode, making them use the more energy-saving 'Shutdown' mode instead automatically. The company says this can increase power savings by up to 20 times without impacting "performance, gameplay, or your ability to receive system, games or apps updates overnight." The only down side seems to be a longer startup time that can take up to 45 seconds. The setting was originally introduced in 2023, and this is only the latest update to it. The power option can be changed from the console settings at any time. This Xbox Insider update is rolling out today to select members of the program. As usual, Microsoft aims to bring it to more Insiders over time before they reach all Xbox owners. Head here to find out how to join the Xbox Insider Program to get a chance to test these features and upcoming ones on both consoles and PC.
    • 2 was a fun game but felt a bit shallow, like not enough there. I hope this expansion fixes that.
