A Whole Lotta Bunk
Wednesday, December 1, 2010 by PoSmedley | Discussion: Sneak Previews
I enjoy watching the WIP threads for blinds and DX themes, so I thought I would do one for my latest Iconpackage.
Please, meet Bunk.

I don't see why they wouldn't work on Vista, Po.
Then if you don't skin the Win7 logoff section, the Vista buttons will be used

Is it because you're restricted to the type and size of the buttons? I remember some one saying that certain kinds of buttons the OS won't let you use. That seems kinda strange to me. A button is a button, right?

in design or function?

The right (round) button is too wide for vista.. more than likely.. u r restricted there some.
best to get a decent mock-up going mate, then open SKS, jump in the deep end.. it will let u know, as u assemble it, what's going to work and what isn't.
Merry Christmas and best of luck with it.

Those start panel buttons are pretty much restricted to a certain size, but you can do pretty much anything as long as you stay within the bounds of that size.
The left 2 buttons would need to be no larger than 53px wide by 24px tall for each state (there are 6 states).
The rightmost button should be no more than 24px x 24px for each state (there are 3 states).
So, if you keep all the buttons 24px by 24px, you should be ok with that look.

Only if the person helping me doesn't shoot me first.

Did I hear shopping. 
That's something I can do compulsively, plan for it, or even for a pick me up. Shopping is versatile Bunk.
Bet you never even thought of me. 
One word. Shiny. 
Hope it wasn't to crazy for you.
And Bunk is looking real good. 
With your nemisis? Well, Ill be.

That start button just made me laugh, I love it!

I'm not to sure about it.
It's missing something...the background for it, maybe.
Thinking of doing an animation instead.
I fixed the buttons so they look the way they should. They're all stretched in the SS above.
Bunk says he doesn't care as long as his face is in it. The guy has a huge ego.

You are doing one heck of job with this theme Po, this should and will be a very popular download.

You do realize that his head will be chopped off when using a top taskbar, right? On the other hand, only weirdos use a top taskbar so screw 'em!
Try a dark outer glow around his head to make it "pop" out?
