I didn't think about that. Is there some kind of BMP, or something for background, stored somewhere?

not a BMP, but there are image references, peruse the code of Orbit 3+1

specifically

Well..................I have to admit, i've only owned a computer since April. In fact this is my first PC. I just learned how to CCP PNG images a few days ago! I will need to study HTML (I know a little) and CSS to learn how to do this, unless someone shows me how.

Definitely keep versions of all your skins without the brushed metal. I don't like it.

wow, another big theme.
The icons looks nice and aquaish.. but has the 3d feel of XP. Neat!
There's even shadows! Does that sounds like my idea? Ok, never mind that.

Now I'm just more focus on my next theme..

Your idea? The date of this original post is November 5th - before you posted your "shadow" set - besides, most of the themes I have worked on have shadows. My first theme, Aqua-Jag has drop shadows. It's just because of the small size, they are not as apparent.

Stay with your first example

I loved those arrow-in-bubble directionals. And that paw--what a kick. The others are simply recycled from other themes of yours. Stick with your original vision. It's great.

Screenshot updated. What do you think of the directions? The ? indicates it's live - hover returns a light bulb - inactive is a lightbulb - active hover is a ? while pressed.

Direction arrow drop-downs

Post by ehume »

Don't bother with Direction arrow drop-downs. Right-clicking is quicker because you don't have to fish around for a small icon, and the bare circles take up less room than big circle + little circle.

Yes, you are correct. I removed the drop markers from all my themes.

The bigger the better. Those are some gorgeous icons.

I'm having trouble installing this. It says it installs but it does not show up in the theme selection at Preferences - nor does it show up anywhere in the files.
