Don't hesitate to post your theme here or to ask the developers questions.
Good luck

Looking forward to this one, gives me an excuse to play with more html5 and see what I can do with it.clem wrote:Nice Sam,
We're considering using HTML5 for the screensaver as well, but not in Mint 15. If it happens it should come in Mint 16.
Will do, I didn't go as far as the error messages yet in the bootstrap, I just got to the selection part and thought it was to bright, I might add a dark back to it instead but then I'll have to change some of those icons to make sure they show up (like the gnome one, it was to dark to have a dark back on it).clem wrote: You should replace all the bootstrap stuff (session selection, error message..etc) as it doesn't fit the theme in my opinion.
Oh, and I almost forgot, you can use this to implement keyboard navigation: http://craig.is/killing/mice
Do you have the new mdm installed? Heres where to get it and how to do it, http://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=2327 this mdm is not in linux mint yet.Unfortunately I get an error when loading it... "Error loading MetalMint" and automatically gets a default one, Mint14 64bit here.
Not really except for Clems example, but it has everything you need in it to make a new one, not how to do it though, if you made web pages before using html5 or html , javascript and css then you should know your way around this and make a new one. It's all web making stuff, not to hard at all.Is there any guide to follow to make a new working layout from scratch? I mean an explation to refer to while coding a completely new layout. I'd like to contribute
I like it, it makes my life easier to code it, I just jumped the gun with the min file and instead of just linking the bootstrap css file I made a copy and renamed it instead (stupid on my part but it was late lol)clem wrote:Sam, the .min.css file is basically the same but all in one line. It's more condensed to make it faster to load that's all

I used it in my theme because it was convenient, but if it doesn't integrate with your theme, you're better off not using bootstrap at all.
It won't, (unless Clem adds the new mdm to it) without the new mdm you cannot have any animations, this is strickly for the new mdm.Brahim wrote:When will this theme be backported to LM 14![]()

It only takes a couple of minutes to install the new mdm into lm14 if you want to, I'm using lm14 and just installed the new mdm to get it to work.
