looks great :D

but i found 2 bugs:

a maximized window still has rounded edges, its looks crappy with the taskbar on the top.

some menus, for example the right click on the desktop menu, have their arrows too on the text itself. this happens to me in every WB theme! is it a fixable bug or a bug in WB?

This Panther theme is plain awesome and your buttons have a real clean look to them. Just going to report some issues F.Y.I.

The tab frames do not have corners as nice and rounded as the start bar. Will you implement tab ears like the ones Panther has? A member posted a screenie some days ago, they look wickedly nice.

Will you have a version with title bar buttons on the right? Also the red close button pops up the system menu. I have to click between the minimize & close buttons to close windows.

Do the system buttons not need to change color on mouse over & when there is a default button? Other than that I think your buttons are the most clean looking so far.

Thank you for working on this theme, even the beta is superb. :)

all this just proves me how crappy WB is :/

you cant even customize the maximized titlebar!

i guess i'll stick to Visual Styles and will use ShellWM to skin the titlebar :wacko:

and i hope ShellWM allows customizing maximized titlebars :crazy:

btw, i dont think you will fix the menus bug, i think its just another bug with WB :p

Yeah, with the other loads of stuff it can do that VS can't it is funny WB can't do that.

No, it's something going on between your system and WB. Mine's fine.

it doesnt happen only to me, some of my friends tried WB and it happens to them as well :wacko:

Finally got home and found the post of the Panther tabs. Dazzla posted the following on page 2

These Panther tabs are really nice and don't forget to round the tab fram borders a little more for the release version (please?)

Good luck with the tabs:

Before I forget. I noticed another thing. On Group boxes, the caption is showing a bit low. If you launch Stardock Central, go to the "Software" tab, then the "Object Desktop" tab and click on any software, you will see on the bottom left, where it tells you that it's going to update or install the software, that the caption string is hanging low. I saw this on another program that I use at work too.

I go back and forth between WB4 and StyleXP. I use WB4 mostly at home and StyleXP mostly at work. However, a new skin has come out for WB4 and I would like to use it at work. Nevertheless, the only thing that keeps me from using WB4 at work is when I lock my computer (XP windows key + L; 2000 ctrl + alt + delete), the window that comes up is not skinned. This window IS skinned when using StyleXP. Is there just a setting somewhere in WB that I don't see? Is there a way to skin that window using WB? If so, I will be a WB user for a VERY long time.

Thanks,

OD
