Wii Black skin theme for WindowBlinds XP

Wii Black skin theme for WindowBlinds XP




From Devianart - Tienano

Wii™ - Black

Based upon the look and style of Nintendo's next-generation games console, Wii™ -- Being released this fall

I've tried to immitate the look of the Wii as much as I can. The Start Menu has the most obvious resemblance to the actual hardware of the Wii. Everything else sticks to the same style - in this case: black, sleek and clean. Which is broken up with the contrasting colour, cyan.

Default Contents of RAR:

Wii™ - Black Skin for WindowBlinds
Nintendo Revolution Wallpaper - Standard (1280x1024) and Widescreen (1680x1050) - This is featured in the background of my preview.
3 Fonts (Please install them)
Preview Image
Readme

______________

Wii™ - Black v1.1 [UPDATED - 29/08/06]

Improvements & Tweaks:

- New Fonts
- Buttons.
- TaskBar: Right & Left Alignments, including the grabber.
- Background colour of Windows.
- Explorer background colours (Menu / Tool-bars e.t.c)
- Task-panel colours.
- Text highlight colour.
- Sys-Tray Notify Arrow.
- Tabs.
- Scrollbars.
- Caption buttons.
- Sorted the white-outline around the left and bottom sides of Windows Explorer - It's gone.
______________

Wii™ - Black v1.2 [UPDATED - 29/09/06]

Improvements & Tweaks:

- Now the choice to choose from a pure black explorer, or a lighter shade.
- NEW Wii Logo added as an alternative Start Button.
- Sorted out bugs that were found on the taskbar (Top, bottom, left and right screen allignment).
- Can now make the taskbar double-laned (Or more (i.e. unlocking it, and stretching it))
- Sorted out colouring of text, throughout the skin.
...and did some tidying up in other places.

There's 4 Substyles altogether this time, rather than just the one.

I've changed the colour of Window Backgrounds and other areas, that hindered the visibility of text or other aspects of Windows (This is found in 2 of the substyles). So to those that felt that the skin was unusable from the beginning, I hope these choice of 4 substyles, satisfy you.

This skin is made by Tienano

issue with the taskbar... if you have custom toolbars on your taskbar

right click taskbar > toolbars > new toolbar > etc...

the title text is VERY smal and unreadable... is there a quick fix for this or ... ?

edit: fixed it by going into the appearance tab > advanced > "active title bar" and making the font be 8 instead of 6

when highlighting text, there is no "highlight"

edit: fixed it by going into the appearance tab > advanced > "selected items" and making the color different than pure black
