nemo Posted March 15, 2003 Share Posted March 15, 2003 Art that looks awesome man, thanks.JagedEdge: I made a list of questions that get asked often, might want to add those to the FAQ? :) I'll get ya started:1. How do I use the alternate Startbuttons? 2. How do I use the Classic Start Menu Banners? 3. What the hell do I do with these Shellplayer dll's? 4. Is there a <insert program name here> skin available? 5. Are there times when you don't feel... fresh? Here's the startmenu in its final form, I'll be working on it today since I have some free time. Tell me what you think now, don't wait until after it's done to tell me you hate it. :D OMG I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! i just have one suggestion... i think you should change the start menu too this: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/65342-vs-classix/page/12/#findComment-684715 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me what you think now, don't wait until after it's done to tell me you hate it. :D I have to say that just plain ol' sucks donkey balls :x I mean it's almost as bad as that stupid line on the taskbar. :rolleyes: Truth be told, I'm kinda digging the new start menu; no user pic is a bonus (I mean do you have any idea how uncool I look posting a desktop with a duck in the start menu...) and it just looks a little cleaner (more compact). I do still like the lighter 'tan' color though... hrm... Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/65342-vs-classix/page/12/#findComment-685047 Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinpward Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 personally, i think the start menu is near perfect right now. i'd say keep it. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/65342-vs-classix/page/12/#findComment-685106 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliott Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 How about something like this? Too different. I think Gigatexel has it right where he wants it. I love it.

(Y) Yeah I kind of like that lighter beige color.. hmm brainstorm, I made a mock up of an alternate startmenu using that color I'll see if I post it. I'm going to stick with the new start menu I made. The update should be done by the end of next week, much to be done still. I recolored black so now it umm looks black.

dp004i Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 I think the taskbar buttons need to be tweaked a bit in the SD version. How about something like this?

MookoTheKing Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 is there going to be a white-ish version or a light colored version of this msstyle? maybe instead of the grey, use a lighter color. it would look nice for sure.

RaQ Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 How about something like this? Giga, I would like to highly suggest you look into using one of these types of styles without the user name as I myself run server 2003 and am unable to have a user picture. - RaQ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/65342-vs-classix/page/12/#findComment-686232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 Could someone post a link to some decent icons for this theme or some PNG's? Art, are you Arty from OcUK? Great theme guys!!

Oh, and when I use Winamp Skin, the playlist still has the classic skin on? (using WA3) Tom Yes I am :) The Winamp skin is designed for 2.xx, not 3 - you can partly use 2.xx skins in 3 but certain components (such as the playlist) will not be skinned. I may do a Winamp 3 one at some point, but at the moment I'm concentrating on the progs which I use as a priority (and which are best anyway so ;)). If there is interest I will do the colour variations on the BSPlayer skin and upload them for people to download. art Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/65342-vs-classix/page/12/#findComment-686552 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The username is staying though. I plan on making one (1) new color scheme but I haven't decided on the color. If there's a color you'd like to see give me the RGB values (not a screenshot) and I'll consider it. If you don't know how to get RGB values then tough. :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/65342-vs-classix/page/12/#findComment-686595 Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaQ Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 Giga, I see your screenshot but I will openly and honestly say the "....." dots make it look horrible.

We likes effect! :D BTW, I've just started on the FAQ since I found some free time. I've already awnsered all the suggestions. Any more suggestions to put in before I convert it to HTML and go from there?
