Quoting Uvah,
Green Theme...Green Glass...and Green Grass



So much green lol. Next release you will be able to tint the icons green too. :)

What do you guys think of this one? It was commissioned by me to Danilo a few years ago, but I never got to release it.  It's called 'Office' (screenshot is just a 'mockup', but I have the real thing here, just need to tie some loose ends):

I love it Jorge, simple, but elegant! :grin:  

Thanks, Tom. Can't take any credit for it though, it was created by our very own master Danilo on commission from Winstep. I'm just 'assembling' the pieces into a working Winstep theme. :)

No WB to match AFAIK. Don't get your hopes up with the two panel Start Menu though, the bitmaps were included for when/if I ever added a double panel Start Menu to NextSTART.

This said, since the theme belongs to Winstep, I have no problems whatsoever with someone else making a matching WB theme.

You mean the Rainlendar calendar application or RainMeter? The latter seems to be still going strong.

Rainlendar. I already have Rainmeter.

Nice! But with all that beige and brown I would have called it 'Noctua', not Dynasty. ;)

Good one JCRabbit, I'll save that name for a future skin. I certainly would not have thought it up. \o/

I thought this one got released way back when Dani & I were working on several other themes you came up with. :-"

Ended up not releasing it and so it stayed half finished in my hard drive for all these years. Also have another theme here - this one by VStyler - in the same conditions. :(

Anyway, I was actually just working on the Office theme, and I need an opinion from all of you guys. As some of you know, menus themes in NextSTART can have an optional sub-theme (so the main menu is one thing and the active and inactive sub-menus a variation of that main theme). I'm not sure if I should include the sub-theme for this one:

If I don't include the sub-theme, all sub-menus (including inactive) will be bright and shiny like below.

If I do include the sub-theme, then inactive sub-menus (not the main menu though) become dark.

Which of the two examples do you guys like the best?

I like the top one best JCRabbit. :)

Thank God! Me too. :)

I can actually include the sub-theme but leave it disable in the configuration file. That way, if someone prefers Office with a sub-theme, all they need to do is change the ThemeHasSubtheme entry from False to True in the NextSTART configuration file.

Actually I like both....would be great to have that option. :grin:
