Unamed Christmas Theme

[Winswy]

I'd say the Xmas theme on my site is very useable Joe, i must never have sent it to you.

I think some "simpler" snow would be better on the start panel.  Also is the canydy cane style stripped part on the task bar for when its unlocked?  Cause that would make sense, but if that there when its locked, it looks out of place and pretty ugly IMO, Id prefer to have it out to keep teh task bar cleaner looking.

The theme is definitely coming along very nicely though, I think Ill be using it come December.

the candy cane stripe is only when unlocked..

i'm "hoping" to have the msstyle completed within the next few days, i've decided that i will release it before i port to WB to make sure i get as many bugs fixed as possible.

*NOTE* there will be a compact menu, however there will not be any fat, thin, thick, skinny taskbars... it is what you see.. no more sizes or colors.

This actually looks pretty nice! The only thing is that the snow you are using right now looks a little busy, maybe make it like a mix of what you have and what was posted earlier? Anyway, nice job! (Y)

Mmmm. It's not so bad either. However, I think you could've used a different font; using a Times New Roman-like font is horrible looking for a GUI.

I think the new one looks bettter :yes:

[Denis W. Veteran]

In my opinion, I liked the older shot better. No stars in the Start Menu makes the thing look kind of plain. I'd prefer to keep the snow at the top, remove the stars at the top, but keep the stars at the bottom. Also, I favour coloured window borders. Makes everything look like one piece instead of a separated window border/titlebar.

These are only my suggestions; I cannot speak for the others who may appreciate these changes.

The tabs and buttons look fine, though. :yes:

I love it :happy:

But You've got about 2,5 weeks to release it :laugh:

Nice work, Bubba. I'm looking forward to using this.

I just can't believe it's taken 4 years for someone to make a functional Christmas style. :woot:

[Vibes1963]

Yes i think the stars at the bottom of the start menu look better and also the red square in the start menu doesn't look as good as the original screenshot.

[Von_Beard]

i thought it would suck ..............but its really sweet and im ganna use it :D

[Dotdot]

I have to say out of all the Xmas themes ive ever seen this is the only one thats usable

[turkishdelight]

That looks pretty good, way better than I thought. I like it.

Yeah, some parts could use some un-Luna Element-ing. Oh, and of course, Christmas colors are torture for colorblind people, but who cares :p

[Bubbabyte]

how does this look...is this start panel better then the last?

likes/dislikes????

[turkishdelight]

Not bad. I'd personally prefer close/etc. buttons that were just a bit more glossy-looking. Also, I'm personally not fond of the maximize/dropdown menu icons :/

I say release it.

[dmb219]

That looks very nice! You've made some good changes there. Nice work on the places background. I feel some Xmas spirit comin' on! :laugh:

[Bubbabyte]

the msstyle is like 95% done... just a few little images left... that i should finish up tonight. I just want to make sure that it's nice enough to release, there are a few things that i'm not completely happy with... so i'm depending on the comments that are left here.

[Vibes1963]

Yes the red square in the start menu looks excellent now with the different colour.

My wife is looking forward to this theme. She likes to "decorate" her computer for Christmas.

[autodefe]

I have a suggestion: make the Windows flag on the Start button a snowflake or something. That would be hot.

[Bubbabyte]

okay.. before i DO decide to release the msstyle.. can anyone come up with a suitable name?

[#Michael]

Hey Bubba....since you have done such a great job on this theme any chance you might do a Hanukkah theme?

Might in some nice shades of blue and white?

[Bant Veteran]

i'd call it "Frosty was an Icehole!"

but thats probably not appropriate...

nice work bubba ;)

[P!P]

How about just Christmas? ;) If not that, something like Holiday Element or Christian Themed Holiday msstyle? :p
