That's because there's no shellstyle in the theme so there are no settings for that part either.

Also, here's a teaser from the new toolbar buttons:

I think with the amount of people who don't like the 'Vista-style' shellstyle I put out, I'm also going to work on a left-pane [the default type] style as well. I've never built one of those though, so we'll see what happens. :laugh:

@Capric0rn:

I'm really loving the Watercolor Emico series! Great job! :)

But, I would like to make a little request regarding WE Black. I'd like to have an option of having grey highlighting on toolbar buttons as well as the blue. Kind of like the way it was on the toolbar buttons of WE Blue before you revised them. IMO I think it'll fit the theme better and coincide with the way the other 2 versions of WE are.

^I know someone that's working on that kind of a shellstyle ;) And no it's not me :p
^Here's an updated version of mine:

@russellc: Thanks! :D

Wow - that's not what I had in mind, but wow, that's amazing! :D

Fantastic!

I've been hard at work [kinda] on a left-pane shell, and this is what I have so far:

I still want to change the arrow-buttons , and the background color for the entire pane.

Yeah - that's exactly the kind of shellstyle I had in mind. Having seen Capric0rn's though, I have to say I prefer his :p

Modified the black version of the skin into "Black Glass", modified a RocketDock skin to match (top), and whipped up a custom Launchy skin as well (center).

The logon screen is pretty much final (Need a [?] button though), and now I'm hammering out the alternate color versions. Should be ready shortly.

Great minds think alike, I was making the same -

I'd like to redo it, but sadly don't have the time (sorry Capric0rn :() - hopefully this can give you an idea with the drop-down arrows :)

Radish?

why when I click right button of mouse, in black theme for example, and select NEW (folder, shorcut, etc), in this sub-menu the text is black and no change to white? I can't see the text!!!!

Sorry for my english

Thanks

Unfortunately, that is one problem with using a dark selection color. You will find this on every theme, as it's a Windows error, not a theme error. However, there's good news. That kind of selection appears very rarely in general Windows use, so you won't encounter it often.

Every menu except for the Start Menu is rarely? :blink:

@Yggdrasilly: Maybe you can use the arrows from the scrollbars? I don't really like how the blocks are being squashed. If that can't be changed you should base the shellstyle on the smallframes.

@tmr250z: I can't add more substyles to this theme. Well I can but I'm not going to because then all the other subtyles should also have the toolbar option. I'll think about the black toolbar buttons. I've tried them already but IMO they should have a color. I'll ask my beta testers.

@StarLion: What kind of color should the ? button have?

@Radish?: That's no problem. I think that Yggdrasilly should also ask you if he can release his version.

@Yochanan: He meant that the "New" menu is rarely use:p:p

What's that winamp widget you're using ? And what app is replacing your quicklaunch ? Neat desktop :)

    • Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has been routinely kicking off demo festivals on Steam for years now, and the second drop of 2026 has just opened its doors. It's a great opportunity for any PC gamers to find some interesting games before they release. The June edition of Steam Next Fest is a week-long digital festival including gameplay slices from a large number of indie developers, though a few major publishers are involved this time too. Interested players can use the Next Fest hub page's various sorting and filtering options to easily sort through the hordes of demos available. The top buttons offer quick access to separate and important sorting options, including "By Genre, By Theme, By Feature," with each one offering more granular settings when clicked. At the same time, the built-in Steam tags system is also available below every page to discover new games more quickly. As always, logging in will also enable Steam gamers to utilize Valve's recommendation algorithms to find game demos they might like, specifically, depending on their past play and purchase histories. This time there is even a toggle now to swap between getting a random and personalized selection as Valve collects more data on the available demos. The Charts section is where you can find the most popular demos on the platform right now, offering up the most hyped titles in a simple list. Right at the kickoff, Mistfall Hunter, Empulse, Echoes of Aincrad, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Over the Hill, Mortal Shell II, and more are trending. Expect this list to change as the week progresses. This edition of the Steam Next Fest is slated to end on June 22 at 10 AM PT. Valve's latest event is now open, and it can be accessed by going to the dedicated hub page here.
    • I lived and breathed MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger. Going to the mess.be website (still online with no changes since 2013) to download display pictures etc. I was a beta tester for Messenger Plus! and spent quite a lot of time on the MsgPlus! forums (a read-only copy is still online at https://shoutbox.menthix.net) Some old Neowin articles also https://www.neowin.net/news/messenger-plus-350/ good times but how time flies
    • Well i'll look into a docking station if needed and use that.    Normally i don't usually have all the drives connected at once,  usually once a month to sync the latest files, and then they go back in there storage area
