Hi es.xxi!

Nice... very prompt update with TP.

You know it.

I should be sending out the next beta real soon and will have;
� Nearly complete Safari skin
� Added SS2 text colours (for tabs, etc etc)
� New wells
� New text/search fields (or: default ones because of naffness of white boxes

)
� Redone Finder/Browser stuff
� Finished other carbon stuff
� More finished iTunes skin stuff
� Some iChat skin stuff
Note: It won't include the Solar variant since I may as well finish one, then the other.

Sorry about 1) Not really sticking to my list and 2) For lack of update/info of late, I'm having a pretty rough time.

rhythmicmoose · Oct 30, 2004, 09:36 AM

Sorry to hear about the personal issues. I hope everything ends well.

And the next beta sounds awesome!

AlbanianGenome · Oct 30, 2004, 08:09 PM

ahh yes, the long awaited Lut icons, waiting patiently

esXXI · Oct 31, 2004, 03:52 AM

Ooh forgot to add; The next beta will include some of the LuMetem icons and a few of the wallpapers - but not the cursors. I'll see about throwing in the newest completed icons.

Once I get everything bar extras/app-skins done, I'll be accepting some more testers. =D

Solsonic · 05:58 AM

I'd be happy to test, it really looks great.

siMac · Oct 31, 2004, 05:10 AM

If/when you do need more testers I'd be happy to help.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Dog's Bollocks�

hashpipe · Oct 31, 2004, 09:31 PM

This theme looks very good, if you are still accepting beta testers I would be happy to contribute as well, contact at [email protected].

Also, I would like to say hello to all the users of this forum, for I have just joined. Have been lurking around here for about a week.....looks like a great place to get theming news from!

Seph · Oct 31, 2004, 11:53 PM

I am sure that he is not finding trouble getting beta testers...

Also, lets not turn this into a "Lets post your email" thread, when and if he does start accepting more beta testers he will ask for your emails or contact, but i hope you do realize that he actually ~hasnt~.

hashpipe · Nov 1, 2004, 12:36 AM

ahhh..... I saw the onslaught of email addresses and figured he was accepting beta testers, did not see that he isn't actually done with the next beta

. Sorry for that! WHEN you have the next beta ready, then contact me if you want.

Holigen · Nov 1, 2004, 01:40 AM

Hmm, lets see here...

Solsonic is gonna be hearing about his stamina, as I have just put him on the Viagra newsletter.

dajk will get some nice Italien women every morning in his inbox

cmove will be able to see the choicest real estate lots in Placerville, North Carolina

skimpson gets some nifty little stock market tricks each day

ambush is gonna have some innocent South African man wanting to help him transfer his money from one bank to another by going through his own bank account. All he needs is your account number and pin.

sembazuru will receive as much info as he could ever want on the size of his *ahem*

jaos will now be the purveyor of the finest women in all of cyberland

bluevertical, since hes my bud, will get a cool get some tasty info on how a drilling company in Russia is about to hit the biggest oil deposit on the entire Earth

for the newbie hashpipe I will let you receive rall of these combined.

Good day my kind sirs

It could be worse; they could live in my Spam junkbox.. 4,441 baby and counting!

And heed Se��'s words well, for he is the Guardian of the LuShine. Ain't that right Se�� baybeh?

Holigen · Nov 1, 2004, 11:27 AM

Haha, just pointing out that if I was in a particularly sadistic mood, I could just sign all you guys up to receive certain ... "endorsements"

Sending out the 0.8.2 email, the three new beta-testers areeee.. [*Drumroll*] ambush, Jaos and bluevertical.

From the email:

About 1B160
No new betas for two weeks? Yikes. Mostly it's been down to family issues and not being well, blergh. I set myself the deadline of December 10th for a 1.0 release, and I can't see that being a problem- at the very worst it just means I won't be packaging LuMetem with the guiKit. Anyway, 0.8.2 was quite quickly pumped out over the past few days. It includes:
� The LuSpace wallpapers (final) in 3 sizes
� Small states for Checkboxes, Radioboxes, Pushbuttons, Scrollbars, Tabs etc etc (mini States are coming soon-ish, I want to refine them some)
� Removed the "fuzzy" Apple from the Graphite style
� Safari skin nearly complete!
� Refined (moreso) the text colours, etched metal text shouldn't look daft now.
� Went back to default text/search fields because of limitations in SS2
� Tons, really.

I'd like to ask Beta-testers to not post anymore screenshots.

bluevertical · Nov 3, 2004, 07:36 AM

LOL!
thanks for the beta! looving it thus far.... will email comments..
peace.

It said your email was broked Se��y. And you're never non-away to send over Adium.

jerseyfreeze · Nov 5, 2004, 09:32 AM

esXXI,

I sent you a nice e-mail and people who just posted their e-mail addresses on this forum get chosen as beta testers instead? I understand it's your decision, but at least give me a reply.

Oh dear, sorry about that.. I don't have the best memory and I was getting quite a few emails at that time. I'll have a look through my inbox and decide if a few more people are needed to test for the next beta. Sorry.

Twister · Nov 5, 2004, 11:07 AM

I don't wanna be a beta tester. I want to be one of the 5 people left who see it for the first time when it's released.

Thats funny...thanks for the laugh.....

AlbanianGenome · Nov 5, 2004, 07:37 PM

still waiting on that graphite version Rick

as is my dear friend stuphalina, and you know we have the gui eye

AlbanianGenome · Nov 9, 2004, 07:55 AM

hmm, everything seems too quiet on the Lut front, something is brewing, I can feel it.

Makki · Nov 16, 2004, 10:39 PM

MacMan4000 · Nov 16, 2004, 10:44 PM

Any progress to report? I las really looking forward to this theme... and I still am.

esXXI · Nov 16, 2004, 11:32 PM

Sorry about the lack of news, I'm still working on it. A lot of it has been delayed because of family issues (that are nobody's business); so I haven't really been up to 8-hour stretches in Fireworks. Anyway.. The Dec. 10th release is looking fine, LuGUI will be pushed out at 0.9, because of unfinished/unavailable app-skins, and possibly the lack of LuMetem icon-set. I'll be releasing small packs of LuMetem icons that are done though around that time.

Hope that explains things.

jwill · Nov 16, 2004, 11:50 PM

Explains them well enough for me
