Guest amo Posted April 7, 2003 Report Posted April 7, 2003 transparent, id increase the opacity tho of the transparent windows so their not as transparent
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted April 7, 2003 Report Posted April 7, 2003 Where are those "proper" longhorn screenshots btw Richie? :lol:
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted April 7, 2003 Report Posted April 7, 2003 Richie M that looks cool so you get my vote :lol: any idea when this may be ready?
Guest Richie M Posted April 7, 2003 Report Posted April 7, 2003 Richie M that looks cool so you get my vote :( any idea when this may be ready? Er, if all goes well this weekend :? if not before :lol: One lot off Longhorn Screenshots are up in OT, about to post the second lot ;)
Guest casper508 Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Transparent it is for me and I wouldn't touch the opacity. Looks perfect! Cas
Guest casper508 Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 How about calling it SmartHorn ?? :lol: Cas
Guest abamara Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 For people with poor vision opaque is better especially in strong light. This is one of my regrets about skins that use a dark background. Can't use them bcos I can't read much on them especially on the home screen. :lol:
Guest Cymruan Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Keep the transparant one, looks good, blends with the bg more
Guest Richie M Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 For people with poor vision opaque is better especially in strong light. This is one of my regrets about skins that use a dark background. Can't use them bcos I can't read much on them especially on the home screen. ;) I understand what you mean; but it is just the "white" bit of the window that is semi-transparent it should still readable - and as this is a "copy" of Longhorn I'm a bit limited on colour of the background. I'll take all feedback on board and see what i can do. My original Longhome homescreen has clear backgrounds (see my sig for a quick link :lol:)
Guest EMGenius Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 I definatly like the transparent version One thing though, why does the pic have to be of the now spv, i have just got mine and it is the ild silver style one (the other is not out in the UK (yet)!). As soon as i install this skin my phone looks out of date!!!!! do you have a version with the silver spv rather than the new style one? may seem a little anal i know, but i am proud of my phone and ~I dont want it to appear out of date!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAA :cry: !!!!!

WAAAAAAAAAAAA :cry: !!!!! Funny you should say that m8, i thought long and hard about which phone in the to put in the pictures, i started off with the Silver SPV in but then i thought well Longhorn is a future OS so it should really show a future (all be it nearer) phone! I would even like to use pictures of one of the newer phone ie Intel or Mitac but can't find any that'd look good :lol: Then again i'm open to suggestions; Silver SPV or Tanager?
Guest Syvwlch Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 Wow, look at that score. Feels like a presidential election in a banana republic... or in France last time 'round? :lol:

Feels like a presidential election in a banana republic... or in France last time 'round? ;) Syv. you have been quite recently :? Good job i'm not using the American elctrol vote method (like they did for George Bush) i'd have to do non-transparent windows :lol:
Guest Syvwlch Posted April 8, 2003 Report Posted April 8, 2003 X'D Yeah, real life has been trying to reassert itself, but I managed to stay in a comfortable state of denial. Still, that takes SOME work :lol:
