Official Bento skin color themes thread

[DJ Egg]

Here's the xml for the above

Let me know which you prefer

Personally, I prefer this one, because it's more accurate.

The only things I can't ever get the same as Classic skin are:
Volume slider bar (volume bar and seekbar are both linked/controlled by PlayerSliderLight)
and Spectrum vis, which is linked with/controlled by DisplayText.
Besides which, both can only be one color, whereas Classic Volume and Vis go green->yellow->orange->red.

[Edit]

Slight update - ever so slightly darker ScrollbarTrack - by request.
Above screenshot also updated to reflect the change.

(download count reset to 0, was 9)

This one.
-It looks more "classic".
-I generally prefer the scrollbar track to be visible (ie. different from the background).

Btw, how about an ultra-classic (Winamp 1) theme?

realy hard decision, I personaly like the one with the darker scrollbartrack, but the other one looks good too.
In general I think dark themes should have a dark scrollbartrack.

I've finally finished the colour theme I was working on. I tried to recreate the City Night theme from the Winamp Modern skin. I couldn't match everything up as many of the groups are different. Anyway, here it is:

hi,
I worked on this theme too. Think it looks better with brighter buttons to have more contrast.

here is a screen of what I get on try to converting the original theme.


if it's ready I will include it in my package.

bye

that's strange,
after a second look at the two classic skins I prefer the one from the sreenshot. The first time I look at the boths I thought the scrollbartrack colour was to bright, but now I don't think so anymore. I think I should also use a brighter scrollbartrack at the city lights theme.

perhaps I played to long with the color editor to make and improve my themes. this tool makes addicted. it must come from hell!

I need a damn break now!

bye bye

I've made a couple of slight changes to my version of City Night. I corrected the bright bit of the sliders, was grey now yellow; regular buttons made brighter, now same colour as the sliders; titlebar buttons made slightly darker.

It still has one problem I need to decide on a way to solve. The Main Window time display is overly bright so the fade/glow effect doesn't show up. If I make it darker, the rest of the text become too dark. I think I try and mod the skin to make it a different group.

Note: I removed the old one so don't ask why you can't download it.

great work guys! keep 'em coming.

how can you guys like that stupid winamp2 classic look and the piddly little seeker bar? its like a de- evolution of the winamp5 modern skin, talk about 1 step forward(SUI), and 2 backwards for classic crap style.

and this skin bugs me with its annoying toaster popup crap that defaults to always on, and doesn't matter if you turn it off, it turn its self back on again.. yay, cough* rubbish

[Edit --> DJ Egg]
Wrong thread dude. Please do not hijack the Color Themes thread to bitch about the skin. It's just a skin. If you don't like it, stick to using the Winamp Modern skin instead (it isn't going anywhere). Or use one of the many thousands of other skins available out there. Many users asked for a SingleUI skin. Those who want/like it will use it, those who don't won't.

And I can't reproduce your Notifier problem.
Once set to 'Never' it stays that way for me.

[DrO]

this thread is about colour themes, not bitching about the state of/views about the skin - there's already a thread for 5.5 beta issues/discussion/bitching.
