Official Bento skin color themes thread

[FatherG]

The first version is in triple-digit downloads so I guess I should update it, heh. Preview and attachment below (you can just delete the old version). I toned the text brightness down a bit between the two. It got to be headache inducing on certain monitors. I also made the colors more uniform, trying to keep the same RGB levels for the various blues.

Anyway:

Winamp Modern skin -> Default color theme:

Winamp Bento -> (my) Winamp Modern theme

See how in the first screenshot of Winamp Modern skin, the background for the active item in the ml tree is bright blue, and the inactive background for the selected item in the Tracks pane is a paler blue....

See in the 2nd screenshot how all 3 highlighted items have the same background, whereas two of them are inactive and should be that paler blue shade. Changing the values for "SelectionBg Inactive" doesn't have any effect.

Maybe a problem on your end Egg? See screenshot below ; the sliders work fine for me. You sure you're working with a clone and not the original, locked theme? Just asking; it's often the little things we look past

Hi FatherG

Hmm, sure, it could just be me being stupid, but could you let me know if you clone the Bento 'Winamp Modern' theme and adjust SelectionBg Inactive, does it change for you?

Confirmed: SelectionBg Inactive does work for me with a clone of Modern.

Not a case of overlooking it at all, looks like you've got a bug.
-edit-

Something occured to me; in addition to updating the themes with the above code, I also added it to the color-presets.xml file inside of \\Winamp\Skins\Winamp Bento\xml. Think that could have something to do with it?

[DJ Egg]

Hmm, ok... not sure what's going on then, but I'm sure I'll figure it out...

[Edit]

Yup, silly me. I won't even begin to try and explain...
Updated Winamp Modern theme coming soon....

iBento

An attempt at replicating iTunes colours:

hi again,

I made some themes, but keep in mind that they aren't complete at all. I haven't skinned the notifier window for now.



hope you like it.
comments and suggestions are welcome

Could I make a request for for some of the other Winamp Modern colour themes to be ported to the Bento skin. I was trying the other day but I couldn't figure out which groups where which. I will try with the Bento update and see if that helps.

In my package you can found the Varsity theme. I try to port this from winamp modern to bento. It was not so easy to do this and the result is more different to the original. but I can try this again with an other colourtheme from the winamp modern skin.

I forgot to mentioned that the shade modes from my package are very incomplete too.


EDIT

@martin.deimos
I think the background from the component tabs also need a colour group.

a extra colour group would be also nice for the songtimer,vis,kbps/khz/stereo text. look at my 'varity' theme, there are these areas a little bit green, but the other text is more yellow than green.

and it would be nice if the scollbars and the player buttons have not the same colour group.

I noticed that at the playlist the selected items have not the same color than the selected items at the media library. I see this also at older winamp versions, so I think its not a bug, its a feature

Thx for your updates.
Will include all in the themes pack first and pick the best themes for the final release

Direct port from wa modern to wa bento is impossible due to the different standard colors. i am really sorry.
best is you start 2 winamp instances - one w/ wa modern, one w/ bento - and start to create the same theme.

and i don't think i will create more gammagroups, since if i create new ones - the old ones break. so this should be a status quo now.
