Catharsis Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Green would be something like this. I don't get it. That's exactly how mine looks. Am I missing something here? Why am I the only one having problems? I've used dozens of themes in the past and I know how to use them. What's the problem?

Joni_78 Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 I can only get the basic Energy Blue color scheme, not the homestead or metallic. Any particular reason? I also don't get the close, minimize, and restore buttons -- I just get the regular ones for the Royale theme. Oh, and I really like the theme, but I still like the thinness of LunaQQ better. You should make a thin bar version, and just shrink down the orb along with it. (Y) It only has blue for now and buttons are back to default until those are 100% fixed.

Sillysam Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 The green button looks really good but i think it would look better less gloss and way less shadow so it flows into the bar aswell.The bar would look good alittle bit thiner and the button alittle bit samller as well. Compact start menu with the similar look of vista 5270 look, then in my opinon it would look perfect for what it is.. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/420605-energy-blue/page/5/#findComment-587128564 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can change the bitmap with stylebuilder.

Compact start menu with the similar look of vista 5270 look, then in my opinon it would look perfect for what it is.. :) Final Star button will be in the next version, there will be lots of changes so might take a while untill it's finished. Also thin version will be added into final version. For the start menu, im considering to do it like vista if it looks better than original.

devilotX Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 I like the Green start globe, but I LOVE the Vista style buttons, even if they aren't lining up quite right, so I'm going to stick with 1.05 until they return Great GREAT VS man, just what I needed to make my x64 system stand out over my x32 systems, much thanks :-D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/420605-energy-blue/page/5/#findComment-587141463 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViperSnake Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Is it me, or is this visual style becoming the visual style of this month? I love it! Maybe you could add different colored substyles and the blue Vista orb start button as well? 9/10 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/420605-energy-blue/page/5/#findComment-587150041 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdK Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 ^Yeah, I'm all over this theme. I prefer a more neutral color for my OS widgets, but I've grown tired of trying to have a consistent UI when most software designed today assumes that you're running either Luna Blue or Royale. I think Microsoft has been the worst offender here. Some of their stuff just looks like hell if you're running anything other than Royale. (Windows Desktop Search, Microsoft Money) So I've caved. Energy Blue adds some really nice touches without drawing too much attention to itself. Love the tabs. Love the scroll bars. And those caption bar buttons from 1.05 are just too sexy.

Joni_78 Posted February 5, 2006 Author Share Posted February 5, 2006 New version uploaded. Had to release this to find possible bugs before I add new startmenu and caption bars/buttons and fonts. Please post any bugs found. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/420605-energy-blue/page/5/#findComment-587158075 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdK Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 ^I'm liking what I see here in 1.07. You've reworked the sliders and slider buttons, as well as the toolbar gradients. Very smooth. I don't see anything bug-like yet. Just maybe one oversight - the msstyle file is still named "luna". Thanks for the update.

Joni_78 Posted February 5, 2006 Author Share Posted February 5, 2006 (edited) There's about 50 new bitmaps from vista also fixed the start button shadow. I forgot to fix toolbar buttons so those might not look so good in 1.0.7. Keep the msstyles named as Luna so you'll get themed toolbars in for example ms office.
