Hi !

Do you want to know more ? (haha )

I'm currently working on different projects which you can see (or not ^^) in my gallery, 2 are most important. That's why I've wished to explain some details to those who wish to know more about how they're going to evolve in the next few days.

The biggest and hardest to do is Soft7, my skin for Windows 7 :

Until now, only the taskbar had been modified and is not compatible with every resolution.

>> But be happy ! I find what I was searching until the beginning and the next version will be completely universal (I've tested it from 1680x1050 until 1024x768 and, anyway, the way it's done MUST work ! ^^)

>> I've also changed borders of windows to be less opaque, so black and white high contrasted corners is ended ! ^^
This also includes a small gradient on the top of windows like on the taskbar !

>> The menu bar is going to be more flat and less shiny, it will be gray ! Same things for the buttons which I admit will look like the one from Mac OS X.
(I wish to say that I DO NOT want to copy Mac OS X' style ! But I think the way this OS, like the way the Adobe CS4 suite looks like is a good example of simplicity, visual ergonomic and professionalism).

>>>> So a 1.5 version will be released in 2 or 3 days, wait for it !!


fooSOFT, my skin for Foobar2000 :

Hoping you've seen and installed the new 1.3 version with different buttons and a useful seekbar !

>> Know that I'm hardly working to add the playlist ! (I'm learning by doing, that's why it takes this long, sorry about that...)
The playlist will be set hidden on the bottom of the player and will appear by clicking a button. It's made in order that the player stay small most of the time. Like someone told me, I wished fooSOFT to be the best mixed between the complexity of Foobar2000 (or winamp or itunes) and the simplicity of CD Art Display.

>> If you don't like black, or if you like the way itunes looks like, know that fooSOFT will be available in clear-gray ! Changed will be able by the click of 1 button directly on the player !

>>>> The most I can say is that you can only expected a new release in the next week.


see you next week !
