Nice and well-done skin, It doesn't look too sloppy in Firefox, either, and looks especially nice inverted. ^_^ keep it up!

I think this may possibly be one of the best I've seen. Perhaps the only thing so far that doesn't appeal to me personally is the blue line/sliver that is just above the explorer window border. I think I might like it better without that. Perhaps an option could be to make that part optional. The theme is very clean and nice. (If I haven't missed mention of it above) Where could one find the icons you're using on your ObjectDock bar?

i made the explorer, desktop, and firefox icons myself, and the rest i think included with rk launcher

How to i remove the "Address" text and the go button?

kb1 In reply to Stianu89 [2005-06-13 20:07:52 +0000 UTC]

right click on the combo box button to remove the go button

removing the "address" text requires a registry edit and possibly hacking a system file
i don't recall exactly, but instuctions are on [link] somewhere

this theme is great.. ill say that its very unique indeed! very nice.... long-horn-ish..
the buttons are well done and nice animations everything.. however..

in windows explorer, just like in your screenshot, where u have the File, Edit etc.. in the blue background, however for me, it looks like this: File | Edit | ... and the lines in between are pink.. any idea why?

oh yar! btw, the yz toolbar icons are really cool ! thanks for them !

you kinda need to use a toolbar layout similar to the one shown with a 48x48 yz toolbar theme

Must say, I am very impressed. Its gotten even nicer since version 1. I am curious about one thing though. My explorer windows seem to be using a different top frame graphic fom every other kind of window. The one with the blue curve across the top. (Like in version 1.) I peeked inside the .wba file, and saw that you have the bar set to 4 grahpics instead of just the active/inactive pair. Is this what is supposed to happen then, or am I getting a bug or something? I don't really mind, but at first, I just had to figure out why it was doing that

i'm using a feature of wb that allows you to specify a special top frame for explorer.exe windows

i like the way the curved frame looks on the desktop, but i don't like the way it looks when you have all kinds of windows layered in random locations
