Plastic Fantastic Update

Now in 4 colors

from Stardock Forums

I wanted to make users and judges alike, aware, that I have updated the WB with 3 extra colors using Neil Banfield's brilliant Advanced HSL Recoloring.

Colors now include Red, Blue, Green and Purple. These are all available as substyles now from the substyles dropdown menu.

** DIfferent PC \ WBcfg setups may lead to different results, I can only vouch fully for the non-recolored Red version **

I would like to add that not everything gets recolored by WB recoloring and that the Red substyle is still the main theme color .

 

 

 

Thanks to everyone and enjoy ! :D

thanls for doing that, John. The recoloring bit has never worked for me on vista 64.

 

and with your update, wb wants to recolor everything including the taskbar. I uncheck the recolor skin box and wb still recolors. i love WB but there are times i get very frustrated. maybe it's just a vista 64 thang.

i wish i could use the new colors without wb wanting to recolor the taskbar, too. maybe i need to format and install everything again.

Your welcome iwas, 

No it's not x64, I know this as I use x64 also, it's just a little of a complicated process so I thought I'd go ahead and do it so it looked right, save folks a little frustration.

Ohhh....with the purple coloration, I have absolutely no motivation to work on my Mardi Gras Windowblind now.  You have all the correct colors right there, and your skinning skills squash mine like a bug!

Oh that would be awesome messiah. BTW I've seen in somebody's screenshot a tile dock round, like you did but with 3 colors in it. I downloaded yours but I only got them with 2 colors. Would it be to much to ask a version of them with 3 colors? :blush:

vStyler strikes again.A great update to an already great WB.No collection should be without this one.5*

I'll try it again and see if I can do it and make it look good.  When I tried it at first, it didn't look right but I think I can do it.  That was in bilbo's SS btw.  He made that for his use.  Like I said though, since I need to do the purples, I'll give a triple color a re-try.

Truly is a very great and fantastic example of talent, skill and skinning prowess.  Congratulation :thumbsup:

With all the other fine skins, widgets and such that have been done to round out the theme, by chance is anyone working on a suite that can be access through Theme Manager? :-"

Apparently the new Theme Manager 3.0 has made putting suites based on a theme together more easily.  So far  only Zubaz has put a suite together using it.

Start a post and ask a question.  I'll try to answer.

I've found a few bugs but nothing that is too critical. (Like DX widgets download but don't apply, have to do that manually.  And there was a bug with IconPacks.)

How's this look?
