Hello,

Ok I just tried your version 1.1, better than the previous one, good job! Just a few points again:

-on SBS, the progress bar of the mini-player is 2px high while the grey progress bar background is 3px high. Yes, in my original theme the background pic for SBS and WPS is a bit different  :P
-I finally found the issue with the changing clock position. Dude, never do that again, it made me crazy to find it out  ;D => when modifying the line you unintentionally added invisible spaces at the end of the line. Please remove them from SBS, WPS and FMS.
-in rare case of 100% battery, "%" is a bit cut off. I guess you should move the graphic battery indicator 1px right like in my original ABE theme.

Yikes! I didn't realize I had managed to put some whitespace in at the end of the clock line! Thank you for finding that for me!! :) I've gone through each line, and made sure that there's no longer any whitespace at the end of any of the lines, so hopefully that will have things sorted out.

I didn't notice the percentage sign on the numeric battery indicator getting cut off at 100% until you mentioned it. Guess my eyes aren't what they used to be LOL! In any case, I took your advice, and moved the graphical battery indicator to x-80, and that seems to have sorted it out.

For the progress bar, I had only changed the shade of green, and didn't even notice that you had it different on the menus vs the FM and WPS screens. What would you suggest to correct it? Should I set all of them to y-93 or y-94, or should I make a modification to the background image (I'm assuming the one in the backdrops folder?) to make it match the heights of the progress bar background area from the original themes? Again, my eyes aren't what they used to be, so I never caught that the background was a different height there, but I would like to maintain as much uniformity with your original themes as possible.

Thanks again for all the help and tips, and I look forward to hearing your recommendation for the progress bar! :)

I decided to go with changing the backdrop for the menu screens so that it best matches your original themes. Is there somewhere I can post it for you to check it before I post it back to the themes library? If not, no worries, I can just post it to the library, I just don't want to put it up again until you've had a chance to give it the once-over. :)

Yes I guess the best is changing the backdrop like in the original theme. Because of the lack of space on main menu for both the menu list and the mini-player, I decided to reduce the progress bar height by 1px compared to the WPS so on SBS it is 2px high while on the WPS it is 3px high. For an unknown reason, my progress bar BMP is 4px high (probably used in earlier beta versions I don't remember). It could or should be only 3px high.

Normally you can attach files to a post here by clicking on "Additional Options..." but it doesn't accept .zip format. Otherwise you can send it to me per email: my nickname [at]hotmail.com

GeorgeT93:
Thanks! Email sent with the zip attached. You'll have my email from that, so you can respond here or through email to let me know if there's anything else that needs adjusting or fixing. Thank you so much, for taking time out of your day to help me along with getting this right. I really appreciate it! :)

Thanks to the help and patience of lebellium, the updated theme (v1.11) has been tested and the remaining issues have been worked out. The new version has been uploaded to the theme library. Thank you for everything, lebellium! In two words, You Rock! :)
