Believe me, I've made the same mistake.

This is the kind of theme I've been waiting for. I can't wait for it to come out...

Oh, and I agree with Makki on the Slick Orange note. Loved that theme to death. Any chance at all?

I'll probably release the update in the next couple of days. I started to skin some apps, but it's a slow go and I might just realease the theme anyways.

afphreak01 · Jun 19, 2004, 08:27 PM

bump!

any new updates on RYB?
i'm really looking forward to it...

wibs · Jun 19, 2004, 08:34 PM

I have a lot of different projects on my plate at the moment, but rest assured that RYB is one of them and is progressing.

afphreak01 · Jun 19, 2004, 09:36 PM

cool

i can wait though... no rush

Well, it's RYB, but other than that thanks for the update. Let me know if you need me to do any widgets for you.

Damnit, I thought you were gonna make an RGB one too! Oh well.

When it get's released, just make a modded version for yourself.. you only have to change the color of the one widegt throughout the theme.. Should take you about 20mins.

Exactly.

haley · Jun 24, 2004, 09:44 PM

So tonight I went through one of those phases where you try pretty much every theme you have, but none of them please you. (And by 'try', I mean "apply"... not just "preview")

RYB will be the perfect theme to satisfy my theme craving... I've just been wanting something with enough color... I love Slick Orange, but I feel the need for a variety of colors. RYB will be awesome....

So the sooner you get this theme out, the sooner I will be sane again.

Whoa. I was doing/thinking the exact same thing last night! At least we'll have X-Metal on Saturday. That should hold me over (I hope).

I'm waiting just like the rest of you. But since I've already waited a year, I guess I can wait a little longer

Yeah, I know. I just haven't peeked under the hood of a theme since the Kaleidoscope days. I'm a bit behind the times in that regard.

wibs · Jun 27, 2004, 04:02 AM

heya folks. I thought a status update was in order, so, well, here's a status update.

It's not dead!

And there really isn't a whole lot else to say. I just wanted to reassure anyone who thought it might be

*pokes it with a stick*

good thing your brought the latex gloves wibs, you're gonna have to pump it's heart by going through the anus

livemotion · Jul 17, 2004, 03:27 AM

I loved the preview, any progress with the theme?

wibs · Jul 17, 2004, 09:09 PM

RYB got put on hold for a little bit, along with the rest of my theming. Other priorities, etc etc. I'm going to dive back into it within the next couple of days, though.

Maybe we should pool or money and buy you a keg of beer asa bribe?

That's great news Wibs.. I am really looking forward to using this theme. Though it might be tough to give up the addiction to ProLCD [Blue].. Getting the shakes, isn't a good thing for a designer.

I hope college chills for you, the rest of your life is like glass, and that you can really get you theme groooooooooooovvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeee.... on bro!

The Enigma Mach · Aug 18, 2004, 02:11 AM

Any more news on this theme? Would love to try it out. It looks so cool.

wibs · Aug 18, 2004, 06:21 AM

No more excuses!

I've resumed work on RYB. No ETA as it's one of too many projects, but I promise it's not dead.

The Enigma Mach · Aug 18, 2004, 11:59 AM

Thanks for the update wibs! And the good news that you are still working on it. Really looking forward to this theme.

wibs · Aug 20, 2004, 01:28 AM

I feel really bad for it taking this long wag, when I offered to do it I really did see myself as being able to get it out the door pretty quickly. You know how it goes though, one thing after another... etc etc. I'm glad to finally be making progress on it again, I'll get you a version showing what I've done in a couple weeks. Thanks for not beating me with the stick for all these delays

Dave-o� · Aug 20, 2004, 08:40 AM

We look forward to seeing the preview wibs! I know your themeing talents and it should be an awesome theme! I hope all goes smoothly for you, and i also hope you're ready for classes to start, heh...

That's kind of why I don't mind the wait. I'd rather see it done right, then half-assed.

Ditto.. and hopefully there will be improvements

The Enigma Mach · Sep 17, 2004, 08:57 PM

Hate to sound like a broken record by asking this again a month later but....

any news on progress? I know it takes a lot to do this stuff and with other things going on its probably time consuming. I just cant wait to see this theme. No pressure here, just asking politely if its still in the works.

cube3 · Sep 18, 2004, 08:10 AM

wibs has been pretty busy with RL stuff atm, guess he'll answer himself tough

Jasoco · Sep 18, 2004, 11:17 PM

I like this one. I'm posting to keep tabs on the Theme. It might make me reinstall APE and SS.

eDave · Dec 1, 2004, 12:58 AM

Time for a bump?

Hello, Dave-O has been buggin me to post about this. I designed the RYB theme a year ago and started some of the resource work, but don't have the time to complete it. If anyone out there wants to complete it, PM me and I can send you the PSD file and the GuiKit file that I started.

Is it just me, or is there a different font being used in the title bar?

No, it's the same font. It's probably just a different level of antialiasing in Photoshop.

On another level, I've not received anything contact from wibs about the status of this thing in FOREVER. Wibs....you still out there?

Dave-o� · Dec 1, 2004, 09:47 AM

Your right Banghazi.. but that is a Photoshop mock-up and not a true finder window....

Like I said, it is the right font, but it also is just a mock-up.

Banghazi · Dec 2, 2004, 01:26 AM

Well, whatever the case, it sure would look good in the menubar.

Dave-o� · Dec 2, 2004, 01:43 AM

Wag, have you heard anything from Wibs on the status of the theme? I know he is planning on releasing Powder very soon, would this be the next one out the door?

I honestly don't know. I've tried to PM him a couple of times, but haven't received a response. I'd like to get this theme done as much as you.

Banghazi · Dec 30, 2004, 05:33 PM

Ooooohhhhh pleeeaase o pleeasse would someone help wag make this theme...

It's honestly the most sharply unique theme I have ever seen.

Thank you.

plastiqueusa · Dec 30, 2004, 06:22 PM

I second what Banghazi said--I've been looking forward to this theme for months, and there are so many themes which people jump to work on. Why not this one?

Would you mind if someone other than Wibs were to build this theme? I would like to have a go at it. Sent you a PM about it, as well as an email. WAG, please respond.

Thanks....

Banghazi · Jan 1, 2005, 09:53 PM

Thanks for keeping us onlookers on the same page, Dave-o.

cheers and good luck

THE MAC COMMUNITY NEEDS THIS THEME. BADLY.

(HERE'S WHY)

I dunno about the rest of you, but this is the best looking, most professional theme I've ever seen for OSX.

Jasoco · Feb 11, 2005, 11:33 PM

Oh, I agree. I really want to see this. But only if brushed metal windows look right. I've seen good themes that look teriffic, but then I open iTunes or QT or iChat and it all goes down the drain. Metal MUST look good. Take Milk for instance. I am using Milk and Metal looks great in Milk. So if a theme has crappy Metal, I won't use it.

Well, everyone that wants this theme completed bug Dave-O about it. He's on the case as we speak.

Komisar · Feb 13, 2005, 09:17 PM

yeah dave has passed it around in the XiAP-Dev Group, Me and sannic are taking care of it... but sannic is busy with real life stuff lately so it might be a while

Twister · Feb 13, 2005, 09:55 PM

I'm putting in my two cents. Please complete it, or at least put put a beta. ha ha.
