Luna Element 5

[gertin]

Here's my current shellstyle (based on Stolen VS):

And as requested, this is my foobar config and the required plugins... It's just a mod of the one made by em3 so the instructions are the same...

m4.pui / default.pui

(To download the files, click on "request download link" and then on "download file"...)

I'm using the latest version of PanelsUI and the window title didn't change when I loaded this config. To fix it I added the following in Preferences -> Panels UI -> User Globals:

$settitle([%artist% - ]['['%album%[ CD%discnumber%][ #%tracknumber%]']' ]%title%)

Some people where complaining about the active-button being the same has hovered-button. What do you guys think about this "fix"?

Active - Hover

Active - Hover

Looks good but I don't think blue matches with the theme... Why not black or grey? (and the same for checkboxes & radio buttons)

[Jamushroom Veteran]

^Black didn't look as nice. And since there already is blue text in the theme, I thought it would look nice to use that for a active button as well. If I use black more the theme would look to plain and depressing. The checkmarks in the checkboxes etc. have to stand out more then text and such, just like the active button. If they are black they look disabled.

Black instead of blue for the Active button would go better with the theme, IMO. :shifty:

Yes, very depressing :wacko: . I prefer the blue Button.

@Unbreakable: Grey wont help getting attention to a button that already is grey.

Yeah, that would be perfect! :)

It looks more disabled. It works fine with the sliders IMO but not with the buttons.

@Capric0rn: Very nice work, only one little thing: the entries in the context menu 'sent to' in Explorer are nearly unreadable.

edit: Attachments

I ported this Theme into WB5 and modied the Startmenu slightly and changed the highlighted text color which got rid of the invisible text. The shellex is a Vista shell that I'm experimenting with.

[mrvc]

+1 for blue active button!

[hulkachopblocker]

Theme is great. And good job on foobar.

[em3]

The blue button looks nice.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Thanks em3 :D I wanted to wait for your approval anyways, now that I have it I can soon upload the update :)

Like I said on Deviantart (I'm MystShadow20xx):

Nice theme, but the Shellstyles SHOULD be made for this. It may look better without them, but some people like the functionality of Shellstyles, like myself. Other than that bug, it's a very acceptable theme that I'd use for a long time.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

That there's no shellstyle is not a bug. I'm not planning on making any cause I lost interest in making them. Maybe somewhere in the future but I wouldn't count on it.

Not to sound all arrogant and stuff but I'm seeing a TON of misuses of the term 'bug".

A bug is something in the skin that is either not functioning properly, causes something else to not function properly, or is an overall problem that the original themer did not intend. If the themer INTENDED to have something in the VS than it is a feature. Just because some people do not like that particular feature does not mean that the skin is broken or there is a bug.

I personally think that the buttons look fine as they are but the blue active button is really nice. I'm really not to fond of the black one. It's really nice looking but does look like it's inactive and if the skin has so much black than it really makes things boring.

Just my eight cents :)

There are many Shellstyles in other VS's matching LE Black. We should take LE Black as it is. Capric0rn did a great Job on this Theme and it's his Decision about the Shellstyle.
