I'm trying the latest version, and color schemes are quite something !

Just for now I'll stick to the white, default one.
I'd look forward a "night" theme with those gradients



Where the bright spot are shaped like an "A" rather than like a "\"



On a different matter,

Since we're playing on a cosmetic point here, may there be a chance to see more fontsets (bigger, massive) in a near future ?
That would really improve usability...


GREAT SKIN.

All someone has to do is make a new filter.png to use with their theme.

I can see that the filter PNG is effecting the gradient but where is the original colour kept as it were? for instance on the dark theme there is blue and black. Presumably the blue is an effect of the filer.png on the black? Is it the black.png in common I would change if I wanted to change the colour of the back drop?

No, you need to be looking in the colors folder at the different XMLs colour values as it's simply a white image with whatever colordiffuse you want to use.

Little update that allows a different colour AM/PM for 12hr clock users.

OK please don't hate me, the colour numbers in the XML files what do they refer too, in photoshop for instance you are allowed 6 letters/numbers but they are 8 in these files, could you just point me in the right direction.

Thanks

These are ARGB (AARRGGBB) colors, the first two letters tell how much you can see through the element. 00 means it is invisible, FF means it is fully visible.
