Description
This is a complete remake of my first visual style SlanXP.It's a very dark theme that works good for us with very bright LCD monitors.
Each substyle is a font option.
SlanXP1 = AvanteGarde
SlanXP2 = Tahoma
SlanXP3 = Calibri
THE FOOBAR2000 CONFIG IS OUTDATED AND NOT INCLUDED ANY LONGER.
Any questions about Visual Styles? See my FAQ first!

UPDATE 7: (19/8 - 2007)
- Minor fixes to the captionbuttons.
- Blank shellstyle removed (It isn't needed).
- Foobar2000 config removed because it's very outdated.
UPDATE 6: (18/4 - 2007)
-Captionbar fixes. Resize problem fixed. This also makes the captionbuttons a lot more compact.
-Blank shellstyle included.
-Small update on the instructions.htm file for the foobar2000 config. (About the foobar2000.cfg file.)
Update 5:
-Foobar2000 instructions improved with screenshots too. See the instructions.htm file. I can't explain better than this, so there's no use asking me for help.
Foobar2000 is a very advanced music player for advanced users. If you can't get it to work after following the instructions I suggest that you use something else instead.
Update 4:
-Fixed bug when taskband buttons are collected as a group.
-More compact "all programs" menu.
-Other minor fixes.
-Better instructions and a config file for the Foobar2000 setup.
Update 3:
-CaptionButtons back to normal. Margins fixed. >_<
Update 2:
-CaptionButton background removed. Startbutton size increased.
-New wallpaper.
-Foobar2000 Config included. (Only code and images. You need Track Info Mod and Single Columns Playlist.)
Update 1:
-CaptionButton, frame and progressbar fixes.
-Calibri substyle.
-Startbutton fix on the Tahoma substyle.
-Other small fixes.

It's a great theme, except I find the All Programs button on the start menu much too small. The original slanxp doesn't have this problem, and I like its start menu much better except that it's a compact version.
Any chance of a non-compact release for either slanxp style? Or would it be easy for me to do myself?

I noticed that too. The common task panel is gone the moment I switched over to this theme. Oh well, I never use that stuff anyway.

Nice theme, but the top of every window seems to be broken, so I can't resize from the top. This theme completely screws up the Opera browser, killing any sexiness it might have confered. Also, it's really hard to see where the scrollbar is. I'd love to use it but I can't.

The top resize bug has something to do with the height of the captionbar. If I change the height it will be fixed - but it will also become smaller and create some new bugs. :/
Also, I suggest that you use a native skin for Opera. (I recommend Fresh Native.)

That should be included in 2 subfolders in the rar.
(Rar files can be opened with 7-zip. - [link] )

I noticed that the notification bubble in the system tray has a red X. I don't know whether this is intended but its very difficult to see the x.

WOW. The first black theme that I like, I'm using it right now. Just two suggestions. When I go to "All Programs" on the start menu, it is not selected if i am to the left of the word "All Programs." It would be nice if the area to select all programs would be extended to the left a little bit, I'm used to clicking on it without paying attention.
Also, with the future updates, could you put what day you put them? That way people could check this page and see if they have to download it again.
Thanks again for this great visual style!

Jaså, av SlanXP eller en helt ny grej?
Tycker du ska försöka dig på något som går i stil med ledorden Elegans/Lyx. Tror du hade lyckats ganska bra.
Tack för allt jobb du lägger ner, vår käre lille lassekongo..

Very nice theme now that most of the bugs have been fixed. The one thing that still bugs me the the icons touching the top of the frame.

Helfräscht!
En liten bugg i foobar-skriptet bara; musiken måste ligga på samma enhet som foobar för att folder.jpg ska visas.
Kan verkligen inget om syntaxen till foobar, så jag vet inte hur jag ska åtgärda det.
Men utmärkt skript annars! <3

lassekongo83 In reply to blomqvist [2007-03-25 15:31:27 +0000 UTC]
Tackar.
Hmm, det var ju knasigt. Har själv inte musiken på samma enhet. Möjligt att cfg-filen tar med sig nåt konstigt från min setup. Prova med att lägga in koden till single columns och trackinfo manuellt kanske.
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)folder.jpg ska ju egentligen leta opp folder.jpg i samma mapp som musiken ligger i. :/

blomqvist In reply to lassekongo83 [2007-03-25 17:10:50 +0000 UTC]
Vad, lite mer specifikt, innehåller %path%?
Min hypotes är nästan att den innehåller disken foobar ligger på..
