Luna Metallic and Olive #16

I was wondering, since there hasn't been a Windows XP Silver nor Windows XP Olive theme on Cinnamon for a while that is complete, would you mind doing a Silver and Olive Green variant based off of CinnXP but with the headerbars on your XP themes? BTW, I don't care as much for Olive, but mainly Silver, Silver was my favourite theme in Windows XP for a long time...

BTW @feren here it shows menus with dark borders: winxp-metal

dominichayesferen commented 7 years ago

Oh, oops, forgot about them

Elbullazul commented 7 years ago

so, I guess that's it, except for the scrollbars in olive, which I can't seem to find. maybe you can provide those assets @feren ?

dominichayesferen commented 7 years ago

@Elbullazul Do you have a Windows XP ISO kicking anywhere? I don't over here... Also, Longhorn TWIWMTB got rid of the XP themes in favour of a working Aero Triggering theme

@feren and all users of XP themes:

We are now abandoning all XP related themes, minus Longhorn themes & Whistler, we are migrating our 'XP-related' efforts to the CinnXP project over @ CinnXP themes

Reasons of deprecation include work overflow & complexity of maintenance of multiple 'classic' CSS themes; whilst with SASS devs can updates all themes at once

we're soon moving them to a new repo; should anyone wish to continue their development & maintenance we're open to yeld the codebase & possibly other useful documentation.

Cheers,

The B00merang Project Team

@feren I can provide extended support for the 2017 feren OS release, but not much more
