Description:
I don’t use boxed LS themes because they just seem to get in the way. Still wanted to try out LsBox.dll, so made a box theme that uses User-Configurable hotspots to hide/show boxes, change VWMs, show/hide winamp, (many more options, add your own too) all by shoving your mouse cursor into a corner. Each corner can be configured by popup for a different action. * Each box has its own unique context popup, containing options specific to its use, as well as Z-order, visibility, and docking options. * Multiple colorizations (sorry for the file-size). * Instantly set the Z-order and/or visibility state of each box by button shortcuts on each box and duplicated on a master-toggle box. * Dynamically set usable desktop space and/or bar/box positions via preset configurations, or free it all and build your own. * Minimize the entire theme into just a single shortcut (to show everything again). Handy when using the entire desk-space. NOTE: THIS THEME IS OTS1 AND NOW OBSOLETE UNLESS YOU RUN LITESTEP WITH THE COMPATIBILITY MODE ENABLED!!!

Description:
An OTS-compliant, bar-based theme. Uses Layercuts.dll, so this theme does require WIN2000 or WINXP. CONTAINS NO SCRIPTING!!! (Amazing, huh?) It’s pretty simple behind the facade: Top-bar can be on-top or duck under your apps, and the lower-bar can be made to disappear entirely. 4 VWM’s, typical shortcuts for OTS-E-vars, Winamp controls, date/time clock, and LSXCommand. Configuration popup via SHIFT+LCLICK. Original wallpaper not included to reduce file size, but can be downloaded from this site (link forthcoming). NOTE: THIS THEME IS OTS1 AND NOW OBSOLETE UNLESS YOU RUN LITESTEP WITH THE COMPATIBILITY MODE ENABLED!!!

Description:
The last theme I worked on under OTS1 standards. It’s become my pet project for understanding the OTS2 standards. Utilizes a fake circular popup (animated and transparent) and auto-hiding taskbar. Comes with four color variations. It’s still being completed: I need to finish the rainmeter and rainlendar elements, but I post it here as an exclusive for SkinYourScreen.com users. [mar.2.2005] – Attempted patch to OTS2 – updated modules – small code updates. LSZ format for easy install by OTS2.

Description:
An OTS concept theme revolving around user-configurable hotspots at the four screen corners to toggle z-order of the bars. Configuration via theme popup offers many options for any screen corner, including toggle top-bar z-order, toggle winamp/system bar show/hide, toggle both, VWM switching commands, popups, winamp show, gather, etc…. Uses layercuts, so this theme will require Win2000 or XP. Update 7/9/03 – Fixed some shortcuts, changed the task system to TASKBAR3.DLL and the shortcut menus to BPOPUP2.DLL. Also added 2 RainMeter skins (so you don’t have to download Sysmetrix, although I’d recommend it). Enjoy! THIS THEME WAS FEATURED AS A DAILY DEVIATION AT DevArt by Jark: "mrbiotech has thrown together a fairly nifty Litestep theme in Singularity. The dark background coupled with its bright blue counterpart are a creative mix of colors and design that affords maximum productivity. Litestep fan or not, this is a must grab! (Selected by $jark) (Featured on 2003-06-07 by _jark)" NOTE: THIS THEME IS OTS1 AND NOW OBSOLETE UNLESS YOU RUN LITESTEP WITH THE COMPATIBILITY MODE ENABLED!!!

Included in the archive are: – 3 different "styles" 1.) Vitreolus Classic: A plain and simple bar that stays true to the feel and color scheme of my previously released Vitreolus theme. This is a "no frills" style, no wonderful eyecandy, but good looking nonetheless. Works well with lighter colored wallpapers. 2.) Vitreolus Sleek: This style pulls out all the stops. Many little goodies such as a mini quicklaunch and graphical system stats are hidden in this style (Accessed through the "configure menu"). A little more eyecandy to this one :) Works well with all types of wallpapers! 3.) Smokey Glass: The most compact and simple of all the themes. Meant almost exclusively for dark wallpapers. Amp configuration is a little different for this theme…so don’t be suprised to see tiny amp display popping up from time to time. wallpaper in screenshot by: www.millameter.com (not included in archive)
