Whilst I don't usually agree with this, sure. The old thread did become a bit preoccupied with a single poster's questions.

Still willing to tear apart desktops and find their faults if anybody is interested, just quote me and ask!

>>1778523

I dislike this one of the most. You literally have two colors throughout your whole entire color scheme. Please improve it by adding more colors.

Here's my take: https://a.pomf.se/djtlgp.png
Removed the hair colored faggot, because all he does is ramp up the filesize.

>>1778526
>>1778527
Do you people actually like – “enjoy” – living in the 4:3 stone age or something? Just asking, no hating, both actually look pretty cool considering the small resolutions.

>>1778526
That term font is disgusting btw.

>>1778542
1. I don't really care about the filesize but I get your point. And yes it is a bit boring.

2. Oh, didn't notice that, thanks.

3. Don't know why you had to squint, I don't have to.

4. There is no gap, that's the border and I have the titlebar a bit thicker.

5. Might change that at some point.

>>1778547
this is great, haha. Thanks, I sort of wanted someone to do me, this is a lot of fun, actually. Also,
>Removed the hair colored faggot, because all he does is ramp up the filesize.
1/1. Nice, but uh, there's a bit of a difference 1.8 MB and 0.15MB though, isn't there?

1.) it is a different font, yes, but huge fonts look really unnatural coming out of the icon + I use the same font elsewhere in my destkop, and yes, I meant degrees C, but- you know, I think I can identify that myself when I look at it.
2.) that is grey
3.) okay, you're really nit picking there, but sure, one moment. Panel song name: for when foobar is open but other windows are overlapping. Inside foobar: for navigating and spotting current playing song. Foobar's panel : for a full set of info alongside a panel that can be read when I'm NOT looking at the song (i.e. looking at other artists tracks without switching to them). + Finally, on the music icon for when foobar is hidden to tray.
4.) because if it were equal size then it would be tacky and if it were larger it would look stupid.
5.) this scrot I don't have any window selected, but it highlights the current window (alongside the windows change in border colour).
6.) where is it inconsistent? perhaps in this shot you could pick out where font colours don't match, but it doesn't mean they aren't used elsewhere.

If we were still on dialup I could understand but really.

>>1778559
Yeah, I mean, it's not really a problem as such, but it's definitely still a little silly to just nearly decuple your filesize just for a pic of a stream that adds nothing to a desktop, is it not?

>and yet you are being nitpicky about Mez using a different font for just ONE string
That's true, but Mez doesn't use that font elsewhere, and theirs was (assumingly) unintentional.
>More like time to squint eyes
If you say so; I don't think it's too bad having grey on a reddish pink, but I can see where you're coming from.
>But okay, I understand now, if you minimize to tray then it makes sense.
I can appreciate your lack of understanding, as my situation is really specific for everything, hah.
>I would imagine it being the other way around, but that's just a taste, I guess.
Yeah, it's just all subjective.
>Show me a scrot / webm, because I really don't get what do you mean. Also perhaps it wouldn't have to be there if a window isn't focused, then?
A bit busy, but in short, my window border lights up red when the window is active. You could argue that with that, the second panel isn't necessary, but some windows don't use bbLean borders and then there's +style and comfort rice.
>Panel bg and fg color totally different from the fb2k one. (Where the fb2k one is the one that is actually readable)

>>1778634
Toning down saturation with this color is kinda tricky. It's one of those ones that doesn't really have a 'soft' pale form, it just becomes icky, dead grey very quickly. I dropped it by 15% though so I'll see how it fares.

Oh okay, I get it now.

>I don't quite follow you on this now, hah.
I guess it's just me being a retard and having no sense for aesthetic, To be honest I've only been following this thread for like the past 4 months and I've really only been gathering inspiration than actually ricing myself. I guess you might now find me utterly retarded for heavily criticizing when my shit sucks horribly and I wouldn't blame you, at least now you know why some of my points didn't necessarily make that much sense.

So yeah, my rice is pretty non-existent, mainly because I am still too busy lurking, stealing ideas and info and also am very lazy. In my desktop you will probably find all the flaws I pointed out in your desktop and many more.

I hope that you are not disappointed that a newfaggot like me was the one who tried to point out shit in you desktop.

>>1778650
Replace “this thread” with “these threads”, of course.

>>1778641
That's nice and all, but you chose the wrong girl.

While on the topic of bbLean, does it work properly with multiple monitors on win8? I'm running it on my work laptop, but before I try and have to fix everything I might as well ask

>>1778652
*before I try it on my home PC with 3 monitors in surround and one extra that is..

Might want to fix the row height.
Use this in your Group List and Per Second tabs for ELPlayist settings.
%el_height% = %el_row_height%
Then you can just change the row height under ELPLayists grouping tab.
Also, get Mactype, your font rendering is atrocious.
