Ideas for a Community Theme Project - Valentines Day Edition

from WinCustomize Forums

Okay folks, taking up from where Island Dog left off, Ideas for a Community Theme Project - Holiday Edition, I thought it would be nice to continue this with a Valentines Day Theme.

I haven't jumped out here and taken responsiblity for much of anything so i thought it would be nice to take the lead for a ommunioty project for a Holiday Theme.

What do you say?

My idea, subject to further input from the community.

Valentines Day Theme Pack with a Dream as being the core for the Theme

This would include at the minimum:  (updated to show skin volunteers)

•WindowBlinds theme (for XP, Vista and Win 7) - k10w3

•DesktopX Theme - RedneckDude

•DesktopX Widgets - RedneckDude

•CursorFX theme - Vampothika

•Dream - CarGuy1

•Rainlendar - RedneckDude

•RightClick Skin - Nimbin

•ScreenSaver Skin (based on the Dream) - CarGuy1

•Icons (IP or just some dock icons) - Vampothika

•Object Dock backgound - RedneckDude, DisturbedComputer

•Wallpaper (based on the Dream) - CarGuy1

•Logons (based on the Dream) - CarGuy1

•BootSkins (based on the Dream) - CarGuy1

(If you would like to do a skin that is not listed please leave a comment on the thread)

At the end this would all be wrapped up in a Theme Manager suite, I have to do something.

We need ideas for a unique name plus design ideas for the Dream.  If someone is all ready working on a Dream, all the more better.

Now, I'm a non-skinner so you folks need to let me know if there is enough time to pull this together for Valentines day.  We are only talking a little more than five weeks as we should have it done in time for folks to use the theme.  In that line of thinking the Theme probably should not just say Happy Valentines Day in words but show more of what Valentines Day means between two people who care about one another, if that makes sense.

Okay, so lets hear your thoughts.  :-" :sun:

OK -- I think I have something a little more workable.  I chose to go red and shiny....who doesn't like red and shiny?

Okay folks still need a volunteer for RightClick and how about a Rainlendar, Xion or, dare I say, a DX clock widget skin? :-"

If people would just start using ClocX, we'd have a lot more clocks here at WC.  All it takes is 1 .png, and BAM!...you're all set to go!  I use it all the time because the alarm function (popup box) works so well when I'm working to let me know it's time to clock out (and when I'm NOT working, but skinning and it let's me know it's time to start work).

I have no problem if you would like to include it.  If I remember correctly it's a free program.  I just check it out I used to use that program, wonder why I stopped?

Reply #64 from WinCustomize Forums Top

I would like to include it -- maybe I could drum up some support that way.  It IS a free program, and it's skinned much like Rainlendar.  Maybe people stopped using it because DesktopX came out or something, but I've never been able to wrap my head around creating things with DX.

Here is another clock I have used for some time and it works great. Also Free. The skin is looking great Karen.

Dave, is that clock skinnable?  I didn't see anything where it said it was, and the only tutorial I found was on how to set the alarm.

I never tried it however on that page it says

"Customizable! Change the background picture to anything you like!" so That is all I can add now. Will look at it at work tomorrow when i return.

Reply #69 from WinCustomize Forums Top

Karen there is a folder in the program files for it that is labeled Pics and has all the different background that you can change it to . So i would say yes. I like it because you can make the clock 4 different sizes with the click of the mouse in it's settings. The pics are bmp
