Dirty NrG (WIP)

Dirty NrG (WIP)

 

DX theme I'm working on....somewhere around 90%, I think. Still scripting, tweaking, procuring headaches, etc., etc. Thoughts?

My screen res is 1280x800 too but I'm currently using a wall at 1920x1200. I don't see the problem, sViz :thumbsup:

I get a script error Line 58 On the flame object but I assume it's because I run 1650X1080.  Other then that it's a great theme and every thing resized to my screen size..  But I have to say I just LOVE the drip.... it's details like this that make your theme look fantastic...

I think I know the problem, Murex. The path to the wallpaper is still set to a location on my system. I'll have to clear it before uploading next time. Once you set your wall it shouldn't bring up the error again.

No problems with the wall, sViz. PM'd you.

One thing I did notice it's not a big thing but you might want to make the processor type information into two lines. MY processor name is really long and it extends out over your system information object. It won't be a big deal to change for the more advanced user but the novice may not know how to change it.

Substyle? Me no comprehend WindowBlinds-speak. It'll probably have an option to turn it on or off, though.

As you may have noticed, I recently uploaded a DX theme with 3 substyles,thanks to a script by RomanDa.  Chameleon DX has a main style, and 3 substyles. So subtyles, is no longer just windowblinds speak. You can do it as a substyle, if you want.   B)

Hey, Quentin! Thanks.

Murex, I was afraid that might happen. I'll set it to wrap text.

Jim, I'll have to check out your theme. That sounds really cool!

Xprojectd24, you should be redirected to the site filefactory.com. Once there, scroll down and click on the 'basic' download option. Enter the security code, then click on the button to download. (Yeah, I know it's a lot of hoops.)

Awesome work sViz!

I like that dropin anims and sliders too. B)

Just one thing, ram use not correct if u have more than 2gb. Performance meters not show correctly.

So please use rabidrobot multiram script for that. |-)

I love it, and I didn't get the wall either,

You need choose wall-size first. 

Just click on left bottom flame object,set your wall size, wp will load... :)

You think I should not clear icons and upload the walls separately?

Seems this will be fine as it is, since you have a wall changer included. I was only asking because I generally don't like wall dependant themes. They usually require resizing of the wall, which, depending on the wall, don't always work so well. Especially if there's a center orb, or such that can distort upon resizing.

Thanks for your input everyone. You've all been a great help. Much appreciated. :)  I'll probably upload tomorrow.

The final version will not load a wall until you select the size from the list (there will be a message box instructing this on startup.)

Thanks again, everybody.k4 :thumbsup:

Looks Great sViz.. :thumbsup: 5*

Great theme sViz,

That little green falling drop looks really nice.. I wonder if it dripped in recycle bin...

And also the start menu is so glassy red... as its a beautiful (why do you call it dirty :D ) NrG theme..

 

Reply #49 Top

sViz...I continue to have the "misplaced" problem...

Reply #50 Top

Ah, damn. I could've sworn I uploaded the fixed version. The problem was that the objects weren't children of the startmenu circle. Will rectify and re-up.

Thanks for the heads up, Dr.J
