Cathode

I have long been wanting an official (or unofficial) port of Cathode by Keith Nguyen, a.k.a dragun415. I think it's one of the most beautiful skins ever and would really like it if somebody could manage this.

Thanks. :)

hrmm, the min max close buttons compared to the rest of the theme really seem out of place. the other aspects is sleek and sexy while those buttons can only be described as random at best. if this theme is ported, i wish something is done about those buttons.

lol, that's not how the theme buttons really look. There is a more updated one by theshortcut. His reveals the true buttons. I think those were a mistake (the one in the ss). Go to spina's gallery on deviantart, and you will see what it truely looks like for windows.

On mac, look at macthemes.net for the true mac look.

Yeah, the buttons are differtent than in that screenie. I just can't believe how long this skin has been released now with NO official port. :(

holy cow, spina has some awesome desktops. does anyone know where to get the media buttons (tlb or samurize?) in this screen shot http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/26818772/ i would ask him myself but i am not a member of deviantart.

damn, once again... just have to say how freaking hot his desktops are... i am certainly hoping that synergy will be released soon too. just awesome...

That looks pretty good but I think too much white. :)

nice dark themes like this are rare.. whould be great if this one gets a port :)

I don't think an official port of this will ever happen. Unfortunate.

i saw an very good looking wb port on astyanax's deviantart page...

maybe he could... :slant:

whould be a reason for me to use wb again, hehe

Cant be released. The author up and disappeared so there is no way of contacting him.

#388564

..and there goes the best black maclike theme i've ever seen away ;__;

is there any other theme that even looks a bit like this one?

#388574

anyone know what font spina used on this ss http://www.deviantart.com/view/26818772/

#388590

Zacks...you might try xxx...it is almost completely black tho'.

#388593

hm... xxx? i searched for, only found a black visual style called dsx, made by susumu

and this one is really far away from looking like cathode :(

i really wished in this case could be made one exception, since the autor is nowhere to find...

and astyanax's ports are high quallity, so i dont think he wouldn't say no :slant:

#388620

i believe it was by jnrock, www.jnrock.deviantart.com

He said he wasn't planning on releasing that badboy, unfortunately.

We should give the author 30 days to come back online and give permission before Astyanax or jnrock releases it. After 30 days, the theme is public domain. Just kidding. :P

Too bad, I really like this style and saw it in a couple of desktop screenshots. It's hard to design a usable black vs/wb, but this is really good. Hope it gets released one day ...
