Ideas for a Community Theme Project - Valentines Day Edition

Tuesday, December 29, 2009 by Philly0381 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Okay folks, taking up from where Island Dog left off, Ideas for a Community Theme Project - Holiday Edition, I thought it would be nice to continue this with a Valentines Day Theme.

I haven't jumped out here and taken responsiblity for much of anything so i thought it would be nice to take the lead for a ommunioty project for a Holiday Theme.

What do you say?

My idea, subject to further input from the community.

Valentines Day Theme Pack with a Dream as being the core for the Theme

This would include at the minimum:  (updated to show skin volunteers)

•WindowBlinds theme (for XP, Vista and Win 7) - k10w3

•DesktopX Theme - RedneckDude

•DesktopX Widgets - RedneckDude

•CursorFX theme - Vampothika

•Dream - CarGuy1

•Rainlendar - RedneckDude

•RightClick Skin - Nimbin

•ScreenSaver Skin (based on the Dream) - CarGuy1

•Icons (IP or just some dock icons) - Vampothika

•Object Dock backgound - RedneckDude, DisturbedComputer

•Wallpaper (based on the Dream) - CarGuy1

•Logons (based on the Dream) - CarGuy1

•BootSkins (based on the Dream) - CarGuy1

(If you would like to do a skin that is not listed please leave a comment on the thread)

At the end this would all be wrapped up in a Theme Manager suite, I have to do something.

We need ideas for a unique name plus design ideas for the Dream.  If someone is all ready working on a Dream, all the more better.

Now, I'm a non-skinner so you folks need to let me know if there is enough time to pull this together for Valentines day.  We are only talking a little more than five weeks as we should have it done in time for folks to use the theme.  In that line of thinking the Theme probably should not just say Happy Valentines Day in words but show more of what Valentines Day means between two people who care about one another, if that makes sense.

Okay, so lets hear your thoughts.

I'm finished with the Windowblind -- just need to make the screenshots for the preview. If anyone would like a pre-release copy, drop me a PM.

Want a copy of the Dream or the wall for that screenshot?

I was a little premature with that...when I tested it out on XP for the preview, I saw a few errors I need to correct but will shoot you off a copy when I get off of work tonight after I've made the corrections.

The embedding of the playlist won't work, according to sViz. I will include it in the zip so people can use it if they want. Just put it in your music folder and browse to it via the DX player when needed. Best I can do. She said I could do it if it were used in conjunction with the windows media player active x control, but that it would play automatically, and that isn't desired either.

I appreciate you trying Jim.  Including it in the zip sounds fine.

What, this is not a contest DisturbedComputer this is a Community Project.  If you wish to try your hand at doing a dock background feel free to do.  The only requirement is to use the project graphics from the WB.

By all means. I was offering because it looked like no one else was. I don't really care for doing docks, don't use object dock, so if you want to do it, go ahead, just let us know if you will or not.   

And yes, he's Jim...lol.
