Description
WALLPAPER, ICONS, AND BBI SCRIPT INCLUDED.The wallpaper is "Robocain" by Chaotic-Alterego [link] [link] with her permission. Chaotic-Alterego did a special rendition of her Robocain wallpaper for this theme and I thank her for her time and effort.
The wharf icons are MBX-III by modblackmoon [link] included with her permission.
The clock icon is by skingcito [link] included with his permissiom.
The wharf is a complete plugin with icons, but only the Web drawer is functional with paths to apps most of us use - Firefox, Outlook Express, and Utorrent. Use this drawer as a template. The rest of the drawers are full of buttons with icons, but you have to provide paths to your own apps and name the buttons accordingly. Ctrl+Right Click on each button to go to Control Options/Mouse Down/Run Open/Browse and browse to each up. Then, Ctrl+Right click on each button to go to Control Options/Control Name and type the name of each up so you can remember what each button is pointing to.
Due to latest (and silliest) deviantART rules, we themers can not upload full packages with exe files, zips within zips etc. etc.
So, I am afraid you will have to work a bit to make this... well, work. Lol.
First of all, get my Balance theme [link] and copy the bbslideshow plugins subfolder to your plugins subfolder. Copy freeimage.dll from the Balance zip file to your Blackbox folder. The wallpaper plugin (bbslideshow) point to MY wallpaper folder, which happens to be Wallpaper2. You probably have your wallpapers in another folder, so you need to open the plugins rc file and look for the line bbslideshow.picPath: Add the path of YOUR wallpapers folder.
The clock icon should be placed in C:\ICONS\Clocks.
The wallpaper should be placed in C:\Blackbox\backgrounds.
The wharf icons should be placed in C:\ICONS2\MB_XIII_by_modblackmoon.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but it IS a silly DA desicion that all of us hope will be overturned.
Again, this theme is for a resolution of 1920X1080 or higher. For lower resolutions, please note me
Anyone who wishes to try Blackbox for the first time, please e-mail me for instructions.
If you want to learn more about Blackbox, I suggest you read an introduction here [link] and my tutorials:
[link] tutorial part I - the shell
[link] tutorial part II - the plugins
[link] tutorial part III - the styles
They are pretty much outdated by now (I MUST find time to bring them up to date... lol) but they will give you a general idea.
And, of course, feel free to ask if you need more info or instructions

I'll happily do so, thanks. But I wont find time for trying it anytime soon. Anyway, as soon as I do, I'll most likely cry for help.
