Took a screenshot, then made too many changes at once, and got the white start menu of death. I started making some changes to have icon frames option reg, or bright. Some things are screwed up, as it's not the proper way to convert a skin. I was doing the cheating way of making 2 column, by renaming 'Metro-Win10-Black.skin7' to 'Metro-Win10-Black.skin'

Like why does the tint not make the menu color darker?

If there was a small guide added to the Metro colors sticky note, showing how to use the colors text, and describe the blue part, or rainbow colored bitmaps, we could all mod them. It's just that I have little knowledge of all those Metro colors, Last edited by pankov on Mon 2:25 pm, edited 1 time in total. I think that the closest thing is the 'Smoked Glass' skin but with it's round edges it doesn't fit the whole edginess of Win 10 so it seems that a hybrid between it and the Metro skin is what I'd really like to use. For example this skin looks great but the Control Panel or Shut Down or Recent Items when shown as menus are drawn in opaque black not as the start menu itself lightly transparent.Īnd most importantly I need something like this for the 'classic with 2 columns' mode I'm very new to the whole Windows 10 experience but I really like to get something 'dark'/darker and I'm even ready to sacrifice the automatic changing of color with the change of the background and go with something black/dark gray all the time but still get transparency and when I say transparency I mean it for all submenus not only for the main one. I'm talking about the 'dark' color with accent only one some icons. I see that it's hard but isn't it somehow possible to get a look&feel like the native Windows 10 Start Menu?
