Alright, so let me introduce myself as n00blet extraordinaire, in regards to LS, I have been using it no more than 24 hours now, and have quite a few problems I cant solve. I'll take most of them to other threads, but the biggest issue I have right now is my theme resolution. I have my desktop set for 1280x1024, the limit imposed by my low-cost monitor. but the theme I found to be "perfect" seems to be resolution specific to something lower. Is there a way to fix this, or perhaps someone who knows enough about themes who would voulenteer for me?

The original theme can be found here:
http://www.ls-themes.org/index.php?cat=view&id=51

My screen is as follows:

That theme is even more messed up at my rez (1600x1200).

I hesitate to give you a direct answer on how to fix it since you're brandnew to LS. To make that particular theme resolution independant would be a little involved.

What I would do, if I were you, is find a different theme to use for now (West's Chronos is nice), but keep the problem-theme on the back burner while you read up on Litestep and learn about it.

Check out the Litestep Wiki and have a look in the \modules\docs folder for plenty of reading. Also dissect existing OTS2 themes for reference (the *.rc files can be opened with a text editor).

Because I didn't have any red themes on NBI-Studio.com
I fixed this and now its uploaded...

Resolution Dependant Now Supported!

xcal, can you test it for that big screen you have?

There's a big unused space on the bar between the meters and the tray... I guess you could call that rez indie. It looks uniform, atleast.
