Some windownames in the title of some metal apps were invisible (for Example the download window of Safari or the iChat windows.) that�s fixed now.

A good dark theme

NetworkShadow · Mar 4, 2004, 10:02 PM

I'm thinking it's time to go back to NEOS from TiSkin.

quandarry · Mar 4, 2004, 10:14 PM

noooo....tiskin forever....

Holigen · Mar 4, 2004, 11:27 PM

The only three black themes that I have on my computer are JetBlack, Shinobi and NEOS. That said, there are a few others like that new one...

NetworkShadow · Mar 4, 2004, 11:27 PM

My best theme list:
#1 NEOS
#2 TiSkin
#3 JetBlack
#4 Shinobi
And it gets harder to choose after that...

Adam Betts · Mar 5, 2004, 04:26 AM

Know any good dark desktop bgs to go with this theme? I never was a fan of black theme but something about this theme got me hooked.

wibs · Mar 5, 2004, 05:10 AM

Hm, anybody know how that text in metal windows buy was fixed in this version of NEOS?

brazil · Mar 5, 2004, 05:47 AM

Hey Adam maybe look at This one here

servo · Mar 5, 2004, 02:23 PM

Has anyone done a mod to NEOS to replace the blue widgets and text with white? I've tried in the past but something always seems to get screwed up. If anyone has such a mod I would appreciate it very much.

Thanks.

Stuphalina · Mar 5, 2004, 02:41 PM

I wouldn't mind a smooth variation, ala smooth aluminum alloy, but that's just me.

FB Eye · Mar 8, 2004, 04:23 PM

What iconset do you guys use with Neos? I haven't found anything that quite fits with this one yet

brazil · Mar 8, 2004, 04:40 PM

Ya' really can't go wrong with Bloody bed MUB-ish Goodness

Holigen · Mar 8, 2004, 05:07 PM

Seems you really like the MUB icons brazil. I like Tuxintosh for any dark themes. It goes very well, I think. Im at school and dont have the link, but Im sure that you can find it at Xicons (or InterfaceLIFT.com).

I've modded Neos like you've said, but I'm afraid to pass it out because everyone starts screaming copywrite violation and artistic rape around here if someone changes another's work. It's beyond me how people get so touchy about art, but I feel like I have to comply with the 'rules'. It looks MUCH better without the baby blue though!

Holigen · Mar 9, 2004, 12:47 AM

Psst...dude...sent it over to me...I wont tell anyone...promise

bluevertical · Mar 9, 2004, 04:05 AM

psst. me two... holigen and i are in cahoots. hear no evil, see no evil

Frisbee · Mar 9, 2004, 06:56 AM

Peh, I've got a NEOS mod like you mention, but I need to update it. Once I do so, I'll pass it out to people over email or whatever, although I wont post it here.

bluevertical · Mar 9, 2004, 07:11 AM

Frisbee. awesome! send me a pm when its ready....
peace.

I finally got Themepark down enough to do it myself. I am very happy with the results.

Stuphalina · Mar 9, 2004, 10:35 AM

Frisbee - count me in too.
Thanks.

servo · Mar 9, 2004, 11:01 AM

Just in case you are wondering here's a screenshot of my white mod:

Nothing fancy, just replaced the blue with gray or white. Oh, and I stole the white menubar items (ichat, airport, etc.) from swiz's Next theme because I could not figure out how to recolor the files in the original NEOS.

Wow, I didn't realize how much better it would be with white text

phillryu · Mar 9, 2004, 12:11 PM

:o Can you send that to me please? ([email protected])

servo · Mar 9, 2004, 01:16 PM

I'm glad you like my mod.
Here's a question for you themers though. In Safari when I apply a style to form fields they got back to the default Aqua buttons (for example, if i change the font size). Is that a bug, something in the original NEOS, or did I mess something up in my modification?

MorphOSX · Mar 9, 2004, 02:40 PM

What's up with the apple menu? It seems to be missing part of it's background.

wibs · Mar 11, 2004, 08:30 AM

Stuphalina · Mar 11, 2004, 08:34 AM

Oh wibs, how you beat me to it!

And he added the matrix variant.
