[vs] BlueCurve 3.7

[Draaku]

This Theme ROCKS!!

Schmoove, any chance you could bundle some other redhat wallpapers? Or is someone else could post other cool redhat bluecurve walls?

[Icarus ^i^]

Anyone know where to get the program that displays the system resources that Schmoove has on his screenshot?

That's Serious Samurize.

Btw, does anyone know where to find the Bluecurve icons in 128x128 format? I've found the basic ones, but need the extra filetypes and folders as well.

Yeah sure, I'll try to get all Red Hat wallpapers for you. If I get networking between VMWare and Windows XP working.

Gonna try right now.

Updated the first post with some goodies:

- Red Hat 9.0 wallpapers (all of them)

- 158 BlueCurve Icons converted to Windows XP format (16,24,32,48.... sorry but the PNG's in Red Hat aren't bigger then 48x48)

Check the first post for the links.

Just added animated cursors to the scheme, and corrected some bugs i.e. alternate cursor, link cursor and the handwriting cursor. Animated for wait and working in background. To install just right click on bluecurve.inf file and choose "install".

Original script by cococol, original cursors by Schmoove.

[Retinal]

Just a little Samurize script i'm working on for this amazing theme.

Comments welcome. :happy:

[klop]

Really nice!! Well done!

I want it please! :laugh:

[Retinal]

This is my first time using Samurize so i'm still getting use to all it's features. I'll keep you posted as I improve the script.

[AcdShdw]

omg wow nice work m8! - wants download-

[klop]

Okay!

Post a link as soon as you finish! heh

And Schmoove is there going to have an update soon?

I love you, schmoove. No, I mean like, really man, I love you.

The community support is great on this one, everyone seems to be adding they're own little dealy-ma-bob, it's really quite nice.

A tip on Samurize (he said he was new)- Don't overdo it. Functions? great. Funtionable? Schwanky. Takes up more than a small portion of the screen? Starts to turn people off. Takes up more than a small portion of the RAM? Continues turning people off. Takes up more than a small portion of time, digging through the volumes of information to find what you want? It'll turn people off like I turn off porn when my mom walks in.

Just a thought :) Minimalistic is dandy, functional is delicous, but I know that I think (*PERSONALLY*) The former is more important.

[Retinal]

Here's the update. Just tweaked it and added the weather function. linked - you have a point about function over design, I'll try and keep that in mind.

Anyway, it's getting late (as you can see) and I need to grab some sleep. If anyone has any ideas and/or comments I?ll gladly look into them. If all goes well I?ll post the script tomorrow.

Nig:sleep:eep:

It looks great!

I want a link please! :p

Ok I kinda forgot if it uses the same bitmap for the top and the bottom taskbar, so I dunno if that can be fixed. If it are two seperate bitmaps it is possible ofcourse. I'll take a look at it tonight.

Okay!

Post a link as soon as you finish! heh

And Schmoove is there going to have an update soon?

I just recieved my Shellstyle back from Gigatexel (he fixed some stuff for me, great thanks goes out to him offcourse!!!), so there is gonna be a small update on the shellstyle.

I'll see if I can fix the 'problem' (I don't really think it's a big issue though) mentioned above.

I'm quite happy on how it is right now so no really big changes in the near future (also no other color schemes in the near future btw).

Btw I tried to fix that height of the captionbar when in maximized mode.... but didn't work out. Gotta try some other things. In fact I don't really know if the height of the maximized captionbar is changable.... but we'll see.

Don't expect an update this week or next week. The things I mentioned are really minor things, I'll save them for a bigger update.

Retinal that Samurize script looks really really nice!!! Take these things in consideration though:

1) Those icons are nice, maybe the size should be a little smaller, not much just a little bit (24x24 ??).

It's up to you ofcourse, but minimalistic is good.

2) Like said before, keep the info you are presenting with it down to a minimum. I don't think people are really waiting for calendars, newstickers, embedded games etc. The way it looks now is just amazing and offers enough info I think.

3) Try it out with some other wallpapers other then the default BlueCurve wallpaper. A good script looks good on more then 1 wallpaper (the script you see in my screenshot on the first page only looks good on that wallpaper.... so consider that as a lame script :p)

Other then that, very very nice script, looking forward to see it finished and released!!!

[Schmoove]

Sorry it is not possible... there is only one bitmap for the startbutton.

[Retinal]

I've worked on the script a little today. Removed the time & date (I can see the time in the bottom corner so it's kind of pointless). Changed the internet icon and tweaked the weather and progress bars.

Schmoove >As you can see the theme works best against block or blured colour backgrounds. I also tried using 24X24 icons but it didn't look right next to the section titles. I might included the smaller icons for people to change if they wish, or if I have time make a number of different versions for people to choose from. hmm.. /me ponders. :whistle:

Anyway. I've got a load of university work I should be getting on with. I should release the script later tonight. :happy:

NB: I just noticed the spelling error on 'DREIVE C:'. It's already been changed now.

I really need to leave Samurize alone until i've finished my University work but...

[Schmoove]

You're right 24x24 doesn't look that good. Maybe 32x32.... hell the left one already looks great, so nevermind

[Vidar]

Nice, though maybe use Weatherplus script instead? I miss my png weather images. But that's just me. Kudos! Great work! Let's have more Boo-Curve! Uh.. uh.. ::hunts for something to skin::

[Vidar]

Thought you guys might get a kick out of this. I did this when RH9 first came out (to subscribers, not public). Heh. I SKINNED MY HP!

(btw, its now a webserver.. a slow, tiny.. webserver. Not my main box)
