Note that Dark skin is now bundled with MusicBee. For the very latest version see the posts at the end of this thread.
-----------------------------------ignore below------------------
Here is a new version of the Dark skin. It skins drop down menus, star ratings in the edit panel and fixes the odd highlighting in the edit panel tabs.

perfect. nice job! thank you guys... nice customized menus and also edit panel...
-
Awesome! Especially the new splash. Thank you guys!
-
Very nice job.
Is there any chance you can make the right-facing triangles on the drop-down menu pages the same color as the text? Right now they're dark black on a not quite so dark black. Pretty much the same thing with the check marks on already selected options.
Thanks for taking on this project V4lve.
-
i'll make a change so the arrow is the same as the text colour
-
i noticed the rating stars dont blend well with the new menu background so i will fix that for the next update
-
He.
Here is a darker simpler skin.

How you made File, Edit, View, ... in header of MB?
-
i think you use the non-skinned border option - the menu it the header section is only supported for skinned borders

It's a switch in the skin file.
-
When I switch back to the original Dark skin after trying out this one, the background of the menu still turns to orange when the mouse hovers on.

That's because it's a common feature of both skins. I suspect you may have not noticed it or have been using an earlier version of "Dark" that didn't have it. Does it persist if you use a completely different skin?

I had been using the Dark skin you published before this Darker one. Probably I had not noticed such a feature.

v4lve: i find the preferences window quite hard to read /cluttered with the black background in dark skin. maybe you could try to make the background of the preferences window gray, like in spotify b? i know this would hurt consistency in the skin but i think readability should go first here.
-
Steven. Any chance you can give me an specific element for this?
-
there are already separate elements for the input panels - just check out the spotify B skin:
InputPanel.Default
Controls...

Here is a new version od "Dark" skin with lighter preferences panel

thanks! looks much better
ps. maybe even brighter would work?
-
Could someone do a darker (& higher resolution) "album art is missing"-picture for this skin? :)
-
its already included in the latest .exe - just get the links from the grey skin topic (the artwork applies to all skins)
-
Couldnt find anything obvious in the grey thread. How do I get it to work?
-
use the latest .Exe ((http://www.mediafire.com/?gzmiojgwwyu) ...found at the end of the Grey thead) it should be there.
-
Ta. Is there any way I can change it for the Dark skin? Would like to use something like this

-
not at the moment but i will add an element to allow it to be specific to a skin
-
Latest version of Dark Skin. Now includes "no cover" artwork in keeping with the scheme.

You will need the lastest version of MusicBee
-
looks very nice! could visualized drop down menu be included too? or is that a thing steven has to do?
-
My proposal, based on an old Dark.xml
It changes the color of the stars in the main panel to make them more visible.

Made a Dependent skin with some fixes, small changes and a new splash.
- Some of the fixed colors where originally there in the skin but with time and after some new elements added things have changed.
- Some small stuff I changed to my liking.

I've deleted the file from the online host, the fixes have be integrated to the original skin after beta v1.2.4083.
