WinVista Thumbnails in tabs update

, ,

At last I finally had some time to fix the "Thumbnails in tabs" feature. Please let me know what you think. This is my first attempt!

More skin updates

, , ,

Today I updated all my native skins to get a better look 'n feel for the upcoming Opera 10 release.
I also fixed some bugs that appeared in the WinVista skins (native and non-native).

WinVista fixes for Opera 10 beta

, , , ...

They are now approaching the final release of Opera 10. Here we have got our updates to all WinVista skins. I must warn you, it's far from perfection. So, more updates will come. Just be patient.

The brand new MSO2010 Silver skin was created to be used not only to match Microsoft Office 2010 but also Windows 7 users. I'm looking forward for your feedback to improve it. Please let me know what you think. Unfortunately, it's also compatible with Opera thumbnail in tabs feature. But this is something that will show up sooner or later.

UPDATED: 2009-07-09

Changelog:
- "MSO2007 Silver" is now called "MSO2010 Silver" & received a major upgrade (check below)
- Added main menu icons (when using alternate menu layout)
- Opera Turbo icons
- Opera Unite & Unite Panel icons (almost all)
- New bookmarks panel icon (finally)
- Misc button fixes
- MSO2010 Silver: New improved scrollbar
- MSO2010 Silver: New white-ish tabs & pagebar background
- MSO2010 Silver: New checkbox
- MSO2010 Silver: New push buttons
- MSO2010 Silver: Wider tabs

Pending:
- "Thumbnails in tabs" feature (still looking for a simpler solution)


Bugs:
- Unite panel button is invisible
- Addressbar Padding bug
- Show main menu icon bug
- Animated Opera Link Sync icon

And don't forget the address bar contains a larger set of Back, Forward, Rewind, Fast Forward buttons you can activate on-the-fly.

WinVista Skins update

, ,

Starting yesterday, all WinVista skins received a major upgrade. As you can see it's like a big family now, currently we have six variations.
- WinVista LE Classic (not visible for an unknown reason)
- WinVista LE Native
- Winvista MSO2007 Blue
- Winvista MSO2007 Black
- Winvista MSO2007 Silver
- WinVista Maxthon

This update includes a lot of fixes as well as improvements. Detailled list of enhancements:

- Improvement: It has a brand new set of buttons (Back, Forward, Rewind & Fast Forward), activated if you turn "Large Images" on (Appearance > Toolbars > Click on the Address bar > check "Large Images");
- Improvement: Changed height of the tab buttons, specially on WinVista Maxthon;
- Improvement: Removed animated page bar loading icon, because it was considered annoying;
- Fix: Dropdown button;
- Fix: Smaller page bar buttons;
- Fix: Slightly bigger address bar height;
- Fix: Missing bookmarks button image;
- Fix: Maxthon specific: Lots of interface fixes & new speed dial.

Note: If you are using Opera 10.00 alpha, please consider restarting Opera right after a new skin is applied, because there is a bug which prevents the page bar buttons to resize accordinly.

9.6x Skin updates

, , , ...

I've updated most of my skins to better integrate Rijk's toolbar layout and Opera 9.6x new icons.

Enjoy!

WinVista Maxthon Edition released!

, , ,

After some requests, I've finally released a new version of WinVista this time based on the browser Maxthon. This skin does not use icons and buttons from Maxthon, instead, it only uses the interface effects combined with the WinVista icon set.



Well, I hope you like it!

WinVista MSO2007 Released!

, , , ...


After a few weeks of work, I've finished my WinVista skin based on "Microsoft Office 2007".
For the ones interested, here you will find a few tips to make it more enjoyable.
1. Disable the main menu
2. To use the main menu, get cornermenu and place it on the pagebar near the Blocked Pop-ups trashcan.
3. Add custom buttons for RSS feeds and bookmarks. My suggestion is to use the bookmark one near the "new tab" button on the left and the RSS one near the Blocked Popups trashcan.
4. Right click the pagebar, click "Customize" then change the style to "Text only".
