Kay then! Here they are:


The first version (i'm thinking of recycling this as an undeterminate progressbar)


The new version (yes, the animation is intentionally subtle)


The fixed push button (shorter caps)

I don't know which one I like most! I love them two! This theme is gonna rock!



Well, ok. If you *really* want my opinion, here it goes: I agree you should recicle the first one and make it be the indeterminate progress bar; if not, it would be cool to have it as a graphite option. All in all, they look so cool�


Regards.

That first version looks extremely yummy!!! Keep this one!!!

How are things coming along? Are you 25% done? 50% ? 75% ? 83.7% ?

And if possible, a matching MightyMouse cursor set would be awesome

I'd say about 10-15% done
Currently, i'm fighting with themepark and aqua (WHY DA HECK do cocoa apps render transparent titlebars differently than carbon?!?) and STILL trying to figure out appropriate backgrounds and scroll arrows/tracks... On the top of that, i'm up to my ears in work...

About cursors, i dunno... never tried... But maybe, once i finish this, i'll try my luck doing other goodies like that...

Naaah... Just been real busy in RL. The theme's on hold for a while, sorry people. I HAVEN'T given up on it, though - it's development has just been postponed a bit.

On the bright side, i fixed a problem with push buttons being to big/wide/tall for some apps (i kinda bored Dave-o to death via mail about it - so i publicly thank him for listening and enduring my tirade out
I made the buttons smaller so they fit better now in some non-aqua-guidelines-compliant apps. That made the theme a bit less cool IMHO (i kinda really liked the aspect ratios of original version), but what could i do. Compromises, compromises...

I, too, agree that this theme will kick ass when its done. Great work! Keep at it.

To dislike Sinatra is a sign of highly questionable taste. To dislike the Beatles is a serious character flaw.

It's a good looking concept but I'm not a real big fan of the horizontal striping it has; I guess that I got sick of them after Apple's over-use of them in OS X.

The theme I use? Why SmoothStripes of course! No stripes!

Still, they may look great on your finished theme, so keep up the good work.
