Hello. I am working on a green theme for the next antix release. It is actually a blending of the window from the baugmo theme and the taskbar from the n-icedesert theme. Both of the original themes have color packs. So I am blending a few more colors together in hopes that they will be included in the next release. Here is the blue theme:


I can either go with the dark taskbar or a silvery grey taskbar. What do you think?

john,
Is there more contrast with the text on the inactive apps in the tray for the silvery gray? I think what you have looks nice though.

I'll try and make a silvery gray taskbar for the blue color soon.

The font color you're referring to is for a minimized app. Non focused open windows have a soft white font color.

Very nice John. I really like the orange theme. The taskbar is outstanding and exactly along the lines of one I planned on developing. I think it would look nice to have the inactive title bars the same color as the taskbar. I personally like the taskbar not to have segmented borders around the icons...like the default antiX IceWM theme. The icons contrast well with the colors. Menu is very nice as well as the wallpaper. This theme is very close to my personal favorites...as far as color, icons, and overall style. If you need any help with any of this...you know I'm here and willing.

The change is simple: change"Look=pixmap" to"Look=flat" and the"button" look will smooth out nicely. But then the menu gets messed up - it goes from looking swish to having white outlines. Not swish.

If you want to mess with it, send me a pm. I'll compress it and send to your email account.

Thanks.

OU812 You know how much I like that color many of my images have the same color, it is one of my favor colors. The theme is outstanding! Another nice worky.

PS: the transba wallpaper that I yes upload it to the gallery is good enough to make a GDM theme.

Best Regards
