Description

WALLPAPER, ICONS, BLACKBOX BUILD, BBLEANBAR, BBINTERFACE, BBICONS, BBCOLOREX, BBLEANSKIN and 3DCC file included.
This theme is another spawn of the Blackbox Mac Series, this time closer to BB than to Mac. It's made up of Blackbox elements - no third party programs or gadgets: everything is made with the help of BBInterface and BBIcons. The advantage of this is you can change Blackbox styles and see the bar and the other elements changing colors and textures at the same time. No need to look around for docks and gadgets that will "look similar" to each new wallpaper and/or theme. This is the power of Blackbox :)
The wallpaper is "Wide Wallpaper" by MrFolder [link] with his permission. MrFolder has given me a carte blanche to use his walls for Blackbox themes and I thank him for his friendship and his trust. The icons are Chakram2 by Scott Copeland, or apathae [link] included with his permission. The build of Blackbox (BBLeanMod), along with these builds of BBLeanBar and BBLeanSkin are by nocd5 [link] included with his permission. The bbinterface script is by me and all the icons should be placed in C:\ICONS. Make sure to use capital letters.
Again, there is only one Drawer responding to MacBar's switch buttons (click on Go to see it) to work as template. You can copy it (Interface Operations/Clone This Control) to create drawers for the other six switch buttons and include buttons/shortcuts to your own applications. In the zip file you will also find BBColorEx.dll, a plugin which you must load to utilize the 3dcc file authored by me and embodied in the style file.
After replacing your older Blackbox, BBLeanBar, and BBLeanSkin builds with the ones provided in the zip file, restart. The wallpaper should be put in C:\Wallpaper2. Please note me for more instructions. ATTENTION: These builds are for Blackbox users that already have rc files in their respective folders. Everyone else who wishes to try Blackbox for the first time should download the whole enchilada from nocd5's site, or e-mail me for instructions. Plus, the bar and the other desktop elements are for resolutions of 1920X1080 or more.
If you want to learn more about Blackbox, I suggest you read my tutorials:
[link] tutorial part I - the shell
[link] tutorial part II - the plugins
[link] tutorial part III - the styles
They are pretty much outdated by now (I MUST find time to bring them up to date... lol) but they will give you a general idea. And, of course, feel free to ask if u need more info or instructions :)
