Gonzo (Sketch-Version) atreiu

Like the standard Gonzo-Feathers, but with crazy colors!


Gonzo (Sketch-Version)



Description

This is based on the standard Gonzo-Feathers, I just want to change the colors, like in a sketch on the songbird-blog http://blog.songbirdnest.com/2008/07/04/gonzo-is-in-the-house/

This was my first feathers, i'm currently not very active on this one.

Works good with these add-ons:
* Divided Tag Cloud
* Pane Buttons
* ♪Photo
* mashTape
* MediaFlow
* More Gonzo (necessary for Medium-Player. Get it here)
* Shoutcast
* Songsterr
.. something missing? leave a comment!




Release Notes

* Only added pngs for the equalizer (Songbird 1.2.0)

Hi atreiu-

How did you find skinning Gonzo? Were the image file names/locations and CSS self-explanatory enough? I'm currently finishing up some clean up that we hope would make Gonzo easier to skin - do you have any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi Komi,

This is my very first skin ever, and I found it pretty easy to do! The explanations on the site are great.

But something could make skinning MUCH faster: I spend lots of time on the search for the image-files I wanted to change, even if the location is a great help. If you could provide some screenshots with an hint to the filename and location of the images, that would be really cool :-)

@Komi: PS.: Where is the file for the search engine-drop-down-button (on navigation bar) located? Couldn't find that one, yet :-D

This is awesome!

But for some reason it isn't working properly in .7RC3, the player controls aren't rendering properly and neither are the web controls (home, refresh etc). Please fix :P.

Other than that, when it was working in RC2 some of the images seemed kinda low-res or blurry (like the pause, fast forward buttons), or am I just being picky ^^?

@Kobalt64:
Thanks for your Feedback!

1. Yeah, 0.7rc3 just came out tonight and it plucked my feathers. I fixed it now, please update.

2. Yes, some buttons are blurry (especially player controls). My plan is to polish them up, when I did the first rough conversion of all buttons. I'm getting closer to that, so expect prettier buttons (at least player controls) for the next release.

This is one sweet skin atreiu!

There's only one more complaint I have, and that's that the 'grippy' on scrolls bars is hard to see (It's only got a light blue outline). I don't really know what color would suit it though... possibly pink, or make the whole thing light blue, but I'm not sure... You're the expert here, lol.

Congratulations this is a great theme!! I love it!! It's FUN and clean and the contrast between the colors in the proper buttons made my life much easier. I don't have to look a lot to actually see what i want to see. No bugs here, everything works just fine.

Thx for you comments, people :-)

I didn't expect this theme to get much love, but since there are some people out there who share my passion for these strange colors, I will update it soon to work with 0.8pre and make some graphics cleaner. Expect an update, soon!

This was a great skin when I used Songbird 0.7, but it doesn't work with 1.0.0rc1. Could you please update it?

C'mon Atreiu, where is my beloved sketch-version!? I even tried looking in the .xpi to see if I could get away with changing the version to support 1.0, but alas, it didn't work :D.

Atreiu, I love this theme!!

This is my first time using songbird, and once i saw ur theme, i fell totaly inlove with it:)

I was wondering, since u are a "skinner", could make a same theme to firefox, I dunno if its harder or easier, but its so nice:)

Love this one. Since the 0.7 songbird really lost its groove of that the dark skin, that was like no other player. However, I agree the dark one was not very usable. The new default skin is nice and user friendly, but blend and and lacks charecter. This feather really puts the funk back into songbird. Great work maestro!

Atreiu this is the sickest theme. When is it going to work with the 1.2.0a branch? I miss it man...

@BTTNext:
Well, I don't do alphas. Did you try to force the install anyway, and see how it looks? Usually that's the way alpha-tester handle it with Add-ons.

To force the install:
1. Install Nightly Tester Tools.
2. Download the feather with Firefox (because install button is disabled in Songbird)
3. In Songbird, go to Addons -> Install -> Select the downloaded .xpi -> force Install
4. Report back, if it's looking good or not ;)

@atreiu Thanks man I appreciate that fix, I actually never heard of that add-on. The theme is looking exceptional. No color clashes or washed out text. 10/10.

Oh one thing that I noticed in 1.1 too. When playing a stream from Shoutcast using the plug-in, the previous and next track buttons look pretty messed up. Yeah that's about it.

Lol, that's right! I missed the "disabled"-states for these buttons. Those two look even more sketchy :-D

Thanks for pointing me to this, because I have this problem with ALL my feathers! I must have missed the introduction of the "disabled"-state in one of the past version... :-P

Updates for all my feathers coming soon...

Wow. the only feather that seems to work for me is this one. I don't know if it's because it's the original with just different colors or what?

Anyway. Cool and simple looking feather.

Defines the buttons better than any other feathers out there, and the colours are brilliant. Two thumbs up mate, well done.

Songbird isn't the same without this as a feather :(. I look forward to you updating it (if you plan on updating it, that is...). Good day :)!
