[VS] LunaIII

[andymorum]

well done Mr. Black!

unique just sucks

:no: :no: :no: :angry: :angry: :angry:

WTF !

[unique]

Excuse me, but this VS was not meant to start an argument...

As usual, some like it, others don't. If you want to, send suggestions for improvement to me at [email protected] please. This release wasn't meant to be a major overhaul of LunaII, it was meant to have a few things changed.

Unique, if you want me to post the emails I sent to you about III i'll glady do it, I didn't simply just ask "How is the theme going"...shows how little memory you have. And this is NOT a Rip. If it was a rip, I would be taking complete credit for LunaII from M. Gartner myself. I specifically said it was by him originally, and to credit him if you redistribute it. It shows how little tolerance you have for others who are artistic and you want to have a chokehold on LunaII. If I made a brand new theme/VS, I would want to see others Modifications of it, as long as proper credit was given. You act like a little kid - "It's mine and noone else can have it!".

I spent DAYS working on this. If you do not have the time to work on LunaII, tell Gartner and let him choose someone else who will do the work and has a reasonable amount of time. I'm sure you've made some good changes and all, but apparently everyone thinks you need to work harder on it.

Otherwise, your update is still here. People can download III, II and whatever else. So what's the problem? If you want to work together like I originally suggested in the emails, please contact me at [email protected] and I will be more than willing to.

Um, yeah, when you post those emails could you send them to me? Because I honestly never got them...or perhaps they were too vague.

thanks for the compliment...

And insult coming from anyone online, simply is a joke...and yes, that means my insults are jokes too. We all like to hide behind out monitors. Its the internet thing to do! :yes:

i was impatient about waiting for the theme but i still used it, but i refuse to use a theme by someone to talks to people the way you do. i just uninstalled luna2 and will from now on use luna2, im sick of your put downs, if you spent half as much time releasing a theme as you did thinking of ways to insult neowin members then we would be on 10.8, not 0.8.

It should also be pointed out that if you'd created your "LunaII" thread at a time where you had something to show us instead of leading us along for about a month then people wouldnt so sick of your crap. You really have ruined one of my favourite themes, not by what you've done to it but by your attitude. Poor lunaII.

The movie "Spaceballs" comes to mind whever a Neowin forum errupts: the perfect mix of humor and pointlessness seems to be synonymous, quite often.

This thread however, went from "LunaIII b1" to "LunaII: Full Contact Co-ed Nekkid Neowinian Carnage Assault." That's pretty cool... :shifty:

Hey, over there....to the right...the tissues....there you go.

As for my putting down of people...perhaps if they were patient in the beginning, and not so damn needy. I was insulted from day one...and took it off the chin for a while. Now I am sick of the bs I have to put up with. If you can't take it, simply don't dish it.

As for you uninstalling the rebornluna2, that's wonderful, that means one less person will be posting in my thread with 'update soon?' 'drop everything in your life and finish this theme for US'.

Back to the thread at hand...this is a rip. Solid straight up rip.

[aggrophobik]

With all this posting, you could have released an update by now.

i sure could have. and I still might. this weekend.

Don't bother. Just kill the project. We don't need your updates. Tell a moderator to kill your thread and just cancel the whole project altogether. The original Luna II is fine as it is. Just by you saying "this weekend" I'm thinking about 3 more weeks at least and it's just going to be one minor thing like maybe a pixel on the caption button. You create a thread in a popular forum talking about how you're going to update an awesome theme and then 3 weeks into the start of it, you say you're too busy and everyone should just stop posting in that thread. And you wonder why people are upset? Maybe you should just stop the theme altogether and tell everyone you're "too busy" or tell them the truth; you're just not interested anymore. You're like a kid that just got a new bike and likes showing it off but can't ride it. Hand over the theme to someone if you can't do anything with it or just end this stupid charade and call it quits. Stop making promises if you're not going to keep them.

You should truly learn to understand that I am very interested in this theme...and that I do want to finish it....but I have too much going on to focus on it. So you will all just have to wait. This is something I will be finishing...regardless of what children like yourself think.

And if I did get a new bike, I would be outside riding it right now; not showing it off...trust me.

Anyways, this isn't my thread...so see ya...

/me walks over to my thread.

FYI i have NEVER posted asking when theres gonna be an update because i realise that you will update when your ready but seriously man, if you havent got anything to release then either go and live your action packed life or work on it, dont come online and insult us for being ****ed off at your completely unprofessional behaviour. You really have no right to be modding LunaII because your a sub par theme creator with no originality, every single decision you have made was made by the people in the other thread and any attempt you made to be original i.e your numerous stomach churning start buttons resulted in pretty much unanimous bitching. I know your probably gonna reply with another "smart" comment about how little you care or how much you would approve if i died but seriously man, you suck.

[Tran]

There's no need for anymore insults, 'kay? Can we take a break? Can we just put this aside and move on with LunaIII? Anyway as I said, this is more of a mod then anything. If it is indeed named LunaIII then there has to be a substantial amount of difference.

[shimyrsar]

Just to point out to all those who think LunaIII looks like the orginal, you -did- to the Enhanced mode, right...?

Yeah, I did it. And just FYI, you have to rename the "NormalColor" shell folder to "3Blue" to get the Enhanced Blue shellstyle to work.

[aggrophobik]

Well hell, thanks for that tidbit of info there. That makes a slight diffrence, eh? ;)

[Mr. Black]

I thank you all for your suggestions, and will be improving it over the Weekend and thru the middle of the week to the best of my ability. shimyrsar, thank you very much for the tip, I do and i'm sure all of the Neowinians appreciate it. I'm new to theming and just tinkered with StyleBuilder to figure out how it worked.

As for Unique, he does not care to work together apparently as I have not received emails(and I believe there was another author?) so I will continue this alone. Still, if you do have more suggestions and a few have sent some good ones to me, please keep emailing them to [email protected].

Again, I wish to remind ppl who are calling this "looks like nothing was done", I stated in my last reply on page 4 that this was meant to change MINOR things only, not a complete overhaul that is very noticeable. It's more of a tweak to LunaII. I called it LunaIII for lake of a better name.

Thank you all again who like it, and to those that don't, I hope you find something better or mod LunaII yourself to make it meet your tastes as I did.

ATTENTION THEMERES:

I could use a Startbutton image (yes, I know it looks crappy) if any wish to submit one for usage...;)

It doesn't matter if I am going to work on this with you or not, fact remains that you did not recieve permission from me to release this. And mgartner handed the theme over to me. I have sent the msn log to dazzla showing this.

Xeon and I are now working on luna2 and it will be finished and then possible I will allow mods to be released...perhaps if you had gotten my permission; or been a little more forthcoming in your emails about what you wanted, I would have allowed you to release this.

This is a rip, and an unauthorized one at that.

[dp004i]

Looks like unique is quickly turning into binary (noooo, you can't have my preciousssss, it's mine, all mine!), except watercolor actually looks good. This one doesn't look too different from original luna. All unique did in several months was alter the start menu (can be done in about 5 minutes) and introduced tons of bugs into what used to be a completely bug-free theme. I'm not counting the caption buttons, he didn't do those.

um... seriously, if you think that was all I did, then you haven't looked hard at it. Please stop posting about my luna2 in this thread...come post in my thread if you think your argument is valid. As for the caption buttons...what are you speaking of? (Reply in the Luna2 thread.)

And binary is an amazing themer, who knows what it is like to have his hard work ripped. (I know this isn't my theme, but I am now the owner of it...and I haven't put as much work into this as binary put into his start button, but the fact remains that this is unauthorized.)

[Jessterw]

Interesting that this thread hasn't been closed already... Regardless of the sides of the "story" here, the theme is unauthorized, and as such this thread should have been closed long ago. *shrug*

yeah, I am wondering when the mods will jump into action here.
