I've decided to go with two different theme styles.

The "curved blue" theme is on top and the "fancy blue" theme is on bottom.

There's one more theme style based on "fancy" style.

I've decided to call it "geometric" as that's a better name.

The older geometric style based on Tiffany colors will be discarded. It's also very similar to the "novelty" theme style.

This one is "geometric green". There will be more colors.  ;)

The new AROS Curved Blue theme in action!

This time I'll just produce the blue templates (prototypes). The other color variations will be added later and uploaded.

This is another custom theme I'm working on.

It's simply called "Mahogany" and it's a wood theme.

I'm still designing the buttons and size gadget.  8)

Nice and more complex than others ! Even with a real wood veneer would not be bad, as buttons nails or screws would also be fine  :)

It's a complex theme. I wanted to do something with oval shapes in the Titlebar with round buttons and darker colors.

It took a long time to make the buttons to match the hues of the TitleBar. The slider knobs also required color matching and took much trial and error.

It reminds me of milk chocolate and brown mm's candies. (Everything reminds me of food).  ;D

If successful I may make another wood theme in the future.

miker I noticed that your gadgets are static, basically when you click the mouse there is no animation.

To create the animation just edit the second image, possibly look at some of my themes.

I attach small video showing animation of gadgets just clicked, some gadgets as already reported at the moment are not active on Wanderer.

It's an avi video. I can't view the video.

I just make the themes. Nothing fancy.  ;)

The themes can be edited in the future.

I'm just trying to mass produce as many as possible to get them out to people to use or modify as needed.

Strange that you don't see the video, it is a DivX, you can see the video on AROS with MPlayer or on Windows Media Player !

 Created a small gif animation showing animated gadgets

Thanks for the demonstration.

The button design is done for the Mahogany Theme.

Now I just need to make the theme and the config file.  ;D

I also started a new thread on AROS World.
