Dude looks really great, too bad i don't have windows anymore, this would definitely make the cut. Great work.

Actually, I am thinking it would be nice to port this to Linux. Not sure if the Thread Starter can (or wants) to do this, or if they could release the images used so a port can be done.

What do you say, emmzaa?

i dont use linux so I couldn't do it myself, but I'd be more than happy to release the images for a port. I have the PSD's too, if needed.

p.s. thanks for all the compliments! I'm still open to criticism too though if you have any.

That would be pretty awesome, i will gladly help and try to port it. Not an expert when it comes to gtkrc's but i kind of know how to modify already made themes. Count me in...

I think it looks fantastic! I would be porting it into the Fluxbox environment on Linux (which is very basic - no hover, for example). I'll shoot you my email addy, so you can send the psds (I have GIMP, but it reads PSD files no problem). I intend this for personal use, but I can post the results here, or just email them to you if you wanted the port back for distribution and/or control of your material. (Y)

Thanks again!

please do.

Working on it a bit now... Fluxbox on Linux is a very basic Window Manager. There is no start button. It has no theme for scroll bars and such (those are taken from whatever gtk/qt themes you have installed). So don't expect a lot from a flux theme. Also, I am right now needing to modify some of the images for the window buttons because flux expects the buttons to be as many pixels high as they are wide (told you fluxbox was basic!). The theme given to me also requires the buttons to be in specific locations, which fluxbox normally leaves user configurable (plus this theme currently lacks a "shade" and "stick" button, which I might try to make myself, or ask for emmzaa's help with).

I just hope that when the specific requirements for a flux theme are met, that it is close enough to be respectable. If I get any progress on this tonight (kids have the night off from football, so I have a little bit of time) I will post what I have.

I'm not a Gnome/KDE/gtk/qt type of person, and I have no idea how to theme those. :(

But here is the titlebar done up for "LiteBlue" converted to Fluxbox so far.

(click image above to see it in context of emmzaa's original sample image in the first post)

Not too shabby so far (I did just a quick "stick" image on the left side of my window, it is a small circle, and yeah I know the darker shadow around it isn't right - it is the maximize button modified slightly).

that looks really nice. :nod: is there something i can do to make the corners look nicer on the titlebar? do they need to be a certain shape or what?

    • LOL. Can't even quote and edit a comment correctly. Figures you're a Linux user.
    • I have disabled it, but the app is still taking space. I have a Mac and it is only possible to disable Ai on that, but I think that bit does get rid of the AI components after a while. What we are told is that we agree to all this when we use the devices as it is in the end user agreements, their software, they can do what they like. I doubt that any bill will happen in the U.S, the government there are in league with big tech firms. The E.U maybe, they seem to have some guts when it comes to tech companies. The U.K is not in the E.U, but some things still affect us. Our government is as gutless when it comes to tech companies as the U.s government.

A major compiler is used for both x86/x64 and WoA64 architectures. This also means that all core libraries are re-compiled accordingly which required some changes in the build scripts. One of the core libraries (cURL) has been updated to address vulnerabilities and a nasty linker error that was causing the need for a dedicated patch which could now be eliminated.
