Try again - they do now - it was the plist file that screwed it up - the links are now corrected. Thanks for letting me know corbo-billy.

I think it was Titan if I remember. To be honest it never even occurred to me that someone might think it was a problem - I was just sharing with this forum.
I don't see it as a problem either, even though giving away, rather than selling copyrighted material doesn't get around the copyright. Altered themes are also sold by others, and that hasn't been a problem. But I wonder if MOTU thought it through. Why copyright them, when they clearly don't object if people change these files and give them away or even if they sell them?

All this leaves me with an image of Beethoven painting his piano instead of actually playing it.

Maybe he'd want a white piano instead of a black one? Who knows?

Or going online making comments rather than playing his piano. Not sure how painting a piano in his downtime would improve his working environment - although painting can be therapeutic. Whatever totes your goats.

Maybe you are supposed to change the copyright like I forgot to do. I notice on the AMPGUIMODS Themes I have bought, Andy has copyrighted them. So I have now changed the plist files on the ones uploaded to my copyright - although not sure that is necessary really.

Hey Guitar Gaz _ 8)

If you're interested, I made a small change with your theme: the selected tab will find colorful and well connected with the Theme .

Image

If you want the exact image (kTabHeaderBar_PictID.png), I archived HERE. I think you know the process now _

:P With our knowledges, possible to achieve a super-Theme: by cons, I absolutely don't know InVision _
I think we should take care of ChannelStrip, I find it a bit too dark or too undefined .

My two cents ...
Thanks corbo-billy - the idea was to make this Theme look like Opcode Vision - hence the tab headers were plain - but I like your idea of the shading.

As for the Meter Bridge, I don't use this hence my neglect of it completely. I may try to make this more user friendly in an update. Polar again I don't use so I have not done anything with that either. Feedback welcome!

Hey very cool! Any chance of making one with a neutral gray background for the mixing board and control panel? I can probably hack it myself if it's a bother. :)

Yes of course - happy to do this. I am away at the moment but will do on my return in a few days. Glad you like the Theme.
