hawt. i was wondering when it would reach 1.0

edit: now that i applied the theme, i'm disappointed that he didn't fix the check boxes. the big drop shadow doesn't fit the rest of the theme very well.

rhythmicmoose · May 27, 2004, 06:57 PM

I hate you. I was going to post this.

rhythmicmoose · May 27, 2004, 07:10 PM

The new spinny activity thing is sweet, which almost makes up for the still-incomplete iTunes skin and still-Aqua Safari progress indicator.

I'm starting to miss the Max method of theme releases. The "I'm-not-releasing-it-until-it's-done-and-perfect-and-has-a-thousand-appskins-to-go-with-it" attitude is definitely the way to go.

iamnotmad · May 27, 2004, 07:14 PM

I really really like this theme, I'd go so far as to say it's my #1 theme.

nooon · May 27, 2004, 07:19 PM

Hooray! Got to have this, NOW!

see ya.

Komisar · May 27, 2004, 07:23 PM

Wow, this is one of the few themes i have run for more than a month ... i just love it and i keeps on getting better

digitaljames · May 27, 2004, 07:55 PM

Awesome theme but the highlights bug me....maybe if they were a deeper blue...

Komisar · May 27, 2004, 09:13 PM

I think they are fine the way they are... w/e

Mac_Guy15 · May 27, 2004, 09:28 PM

Yay! I love this theme so much, it is so useable and very nice.

Mac_Guy15 · May 27, 2004, 09:43 PM

The iTunes play button etc.. have white around them I noticed. Is this going to be fixed?

I think they're supposed to be like that. I don't like it, but I don't think it's a mistake.

What I don't like is how the buttons can't decide whether to be black or white (compare the browse button's behavior to the play button's).

Komisar · May 27, 2004, 10:36 PM

i dont like the thin drop shadow around the buttons for some reason they dont go wit it

Yeah, and it's not just the Play button, it's also the forward and back as well as the browse/refresh buttons. At first I thought there was something wrong, but like rhythmicmoose said, I don't think it's a mistake. In my opinion, the iTunes skin is such a step backwards for an otherwise FANTASTIC theme. Just my 2 cents.

I'm not really opposed to the style. They remind me of the buttons on the 3G iPods. I just wish they were complete and consistent. The burn button, I just noticed, is half-done. The symbol underneath the gate is new, but the gate is still brushed.

Anyway, the rest of the theme is perfect (except for the checkboxes), even if the appskins are lacking.

templetalker · May 28, 2004, 03:39 PM

I for ONE am Stoked to see Daisuke back in action. His themeing aesthetic and well rounded nature is becoming more & more expert. Can you guys imagine how much more dangerously cool his future themes will be! The potential is unlimited for this cat's imagination. Owe BABY!

NetworkShadow · May 28, 2004, 05:27 PM

great.

Komisar · May 28, 2004, 09:53 PM

once again this topic has become a never ending rant... oh i love this community

lol indeed. One of the best white themes for Mac OS X, end of discussion for me.

underwood · May 29, 2004, 01:55 AM

iTunes play/next/previous icon needs to be fixed. lack of app skins and incomplete ones. the apple symbol on the menu is a lil big, imho.

[/rant]

Komisar · May 29, 2004, 11:12 AM

No its not the apple logo is a perfect size... why do u want such small apple logos?

nooon · May 29, 2004, 12:28 PM

this is EASILY the best guikit in 2004! it's AWESOME and I love it!

hooray for Daisuke!

I don't understand the problem with the iTunes skin, it looks great to me.

i just prefer it to be a tad smaller, like 95% of the current size. the smooth stripes /guipod size, not huge like in the default aqua theme. the current one seem out of place.

Just want it to be consistent with the rest of the buttons. i think it's possible to make the background a little lighter. but it's okay, i can mod the theme myself (that's if i can reproduce the round buttons).

miloszwl · May 29, 2004, 04:08 PM

it is great, awesome but need small fixes mentioned above.
I am already working on milky-styled icons to match this theme.

TheIceMan · May 30, 2004, 02:11 AM

miloszwl: Looking forward to your icons.

Komisar · May 30, 2004, 11:17 AM

cant wait for the icons dude!

miloszwl · May 30, 2004, 02:08 PM

well You can see very small preview on my website - they are called iMilkyway although they are a mix of metal and milk. believe me, they go very well with SIRO

Stuphalina · May 31, 2004, 11:55 AM

Okay, I have been using this theme since it first came out - 0.9b version - and I love it except for some little things:

-I can't stand the black line under the menubar. I think it takes away from the overall feel.
-The safari skin desperately needs a better progress color.
-I do agree with the itunes skin complains - it needs to be really and truly finished.

I only say these in the hopes that Daisuke reads this.
Otherwise, this theme is at the top of my all time favorite list.

Komisar · May 31, 2004, 12:06 PM

Yeah we always right our complaitns here but do u think he actually reads them... and also i love the imilkyway what icon is that supposed to be the desktop folder or the desktop which one?

miloszwl · May 31, 2004, 12:13 PM

it is supposed to be desktop icon

Sounds great! Will it be a complete set (read, CandyBar) or just a folder and trash or harddrive icon ?

Komisar · May 31, 2004, 04:27 PM

I think he said it was going to be a full replacement and i would think so mainly because..... he has a desktop icon there and there wouldnt be a point in a desktop icon if he was only going to make folders and trash cans... but i dont

miloszwl · May 31, 2004, 05:21 PM

yes. it is going to be a full candybar pack. i already have 12 icons but i can't show You them

Komisar · May 31, 2004, 06:41 PM

They've miss named my desktop snaps before too, I said "forget it" after that...

ambush · Jun 5, 2004, 04:14 PM

I think this is the best theme ever made.

A mix of unprecedented unique style & usability.

Wow.
