_______________________________________________

finnaly there it is. and just in time i'm going to france tomorrow...

UPDATED
- added navigation arrow
- horizontal and vertical scrollbars
- Favorite Links background
- lighter details pane
- added 'please wait' screen
which could still have the progress bar
- and some more things i can't remember

Finnaly there it is..

couldnt wait any longer. reaally wanted to show you what i've done. im already fixing the Maximized windows; so you wont like full screen explorer yet..
Dont press the Maximize button on firefox, because it disables Aero on that window.

i hope you guys like it!
_______________________________________________

how to use:

- double click the .wba file.
- open windowblinds 7 or 6
- press settings and go to per application
- add firefox.exe and explorer.exe
- now double click explorer.exe and select 'use specified skin' in the drop down box.
- press select skin and select Strata [40]
- in the left corner of that window choose Strata ??
- do the same for Firefox but slect Firefox in that dropdown box.

apply the strata40 style ( select the windows substyle in the '3 styles' tab)

Reboot and enjoy!

This doesn't work properly with Windows 7, or the latest version of WB. Fix?

Did you follow the little tutorial? You cannot apply this theme like you would with others in WB.

Though I installed the skin without any problem (it was shown on the list),
I cannot apply the skin (WindowBlinds 6.0). No response.
I don't know how to figure this out.

there is a download button in the upper right corner

and its a .wba this means that you'll need WindowBlinds (shareware) to apply the skin.

This looks nice, but there is a problem on my computer with it, and I don't know why...

The top part of every window, and bottom are out of place, and the navigation to minimize/maximize/close are not shown, without hovering over the area for them, but they are so small you still can't tell what's what.

I don't know what happened... I installed it the way you're suppose to.

FellTheWolf [2010-12-03 03:48:03 +0000 UTC]

Okay so I have a few questions/problems.

1. Does this window blinds theme not have a small task bar version. When I use the small task bar this happens: [link]

Also at the top of each explorer window there is a weird look. This is when I'm using the strata ?? (fixes when switched to strata old)

2. Start menu links have distorted text next to them (1) and start menu properties window has a few distortions (2) Seen in this picture: [link]

The windows explorer is better windows at the top are fixed but there are still no small taskbar version.

So this is a great theme as I love Strata40 for Firefox but I'd like if you could look at these errors.

Also when clicking explorer rolls up the window it would be nice to have something indicating what it is. Like text or something.

S-u-P-R-e-M-e In reply to FellTheWolf [2010-12-04 10:52:49 +0000 UTC]

1. Windowblinds doesnt support creating your own small taskbar startorb so thats why its still "centered" (in the taskbar image), and about the active programs in the tray area; it's a problem in windowblinds, i don't think i can do anything about it...

can you post an image of this "wierd look" since i don't have all these issues or do you mean that the top frame/bottom frame is too big? because i can see it is in your pic :/

2. I didn't enable any text effect for the startmenu so thats pretty odd, and sorry i can't do anything about the text in the properties windows since it's a part of explorer.exe and i didn't knew it was so it's a skin limitation...

and for a small taskbar version i'll post a startorb for startorb changer, and a better looking one of course

hmm... i don't get why people don't like windowblinds since its a really awsome skinning program, but just because it costs money people hate it? you guys are lucky dat visual style builders buy the neccesairy programs so you can apply their themes for free...

leejuhn In reply to S-u-P-R-e-M-e [2010-10-23 12:58:58 +0000 UTC]

It's not because it's not free. Why use 3rd party software to skin Windows when Windows can be skinned without it.

S-u-P-R-e-M-e In reply to leejuhn [2010-10-30 15:19:48 +0000 UTC]

because it takes a day to make a WBA and i dont know how long on a vs.
with windowblinds there is nothing to learn but with a vs there is so much that goes wrong. for example when using transparant images in WBA they are applied correctly but in VSB a transparant image looks wierd if you don't know how to apply it correctly, for example i could have released my VS so much sooner if the images for the window frames had shown up correctly the first time i imported them... but they don't. they still don't.

but you're right, it's not really neccesairy but for some people it's the only way because they don't know much about pc's and just can't handle the complexity of VSB..
and i'm getting really annoyed that nothing is working as it should...
