Brent says YES. But, you MUST ride naked and bareback on a horse each time you ride into town with a model of your choice sitting in front of you on the horse.

Otherwise, you can not be the fourth. Your choice.

It's looks ok on my notebook monitor, but you're right, I remember it looked too dark on my CRT monitor at work.
The rounded rectangle sections are 50% opaque in the mockup, I thought of doing the same for the actual GUI, so you could use the control for changing the background colour to adjust the look of the GUI to your liking. That's the idea anyway.

Top right is very tasty.

I post on topic. Then reply to YOU guys. Sorry if you don't like my replies. Too bad you're not the particular L'il Hitler who's in charge around here or your opinion might matter.
ok, that's enough!

a colour control for the highlighted knob part would also be great.
the cyan bits could get nauseating after a while.

anything will be quickly modifiable in the code side even if there isnt an option to change it on the user side. it's possible we'll implement the same color config using the .ini files like the default gui had. i just need to update the code for that system a little bit.

I think I can help maintaining/finishing gsoto's proto3 UI if he doesn't mind. Is it compiled under VS2005? Or do I need to use MinGW32?
Peace, my friends. I'm not seeking arguments here. ;)

Love this one, really hope someone is able to code it.

The overall look is great, layout is really good, this is getting my +1

just out of interest I modded the top corner of this one to make it a bit more induvidual

it's easier to use mingw because i can write all the makefiles and stuff for you. the code all works 100% in msvc though and the executables are quite a lot smaller. that could be important if the plugins were getting into the 500k range but i don't consider it a major problem at this point.

i just prefer using gcc because i'm able to unify my whole build process using makefiles, and i prefer the slightly better standards compliance (less extensions and 'optimizations') in gcc in addition to the compiler's smaller size and ease of use. different people have different opinions on ease of use, i'm a shell guy so i like gcc. a gui person might like msvc a lot more and their IDE is absolutely great, no denying that.

you just need to manually add each source file while creating a project and it should compile no problem. i'll be releasing a new version of the gui library and examples soon so please wait for that to do any serious work - but you can check out the existing stuff at http://xhip.cjb.net/xhip/xgdb

Branis, that's looking good. I prefer lighter colors so the topleft of the four would be my favourite.
As my own skin is finished now I must start to implement the code, this will probably take awhile as it will be alot of trial and error from my side.
