Making custom design
Put necessary images into JanusTheme subdirectory,
which situated in the plugins directory. Supported only bmp-images.
Filenames must be as follows:
| button.bmp |
button |
| buttond.bmp |
pressed button |
| pawn.bmp |
pawn |
|
rook.bmp
|
root |
| knight.bmp |
knight |
| bishop.bmp |
bishop |
| queen.bmp |
queen |
| king.bmp |
king |
| counter.bmp |
piece for reverse |
Some peculiarities of images processing:
Any dimensions are allowed.
The #FF00FF color is used as a transparent color.
Color modification for grayscaled image occured as follows:
| Source image, where '192' mark - position
of color with code #C0C0C0 (192 == 0xC0) |
 |
| Displayed in Janus image, with choosed
#0000FF color for current element |
 |
The same behaviour in case of using colored images, but every
channel is processed separately.
As a case in point you can download Modern
and Advanced themes.
If you suppose you created good design or color theme, send
your work to pbiJanus@narod.ru
(send screenshots as a demonstation of color theme).
And one more point: could anybody correct
my English at this and Home pages? ;-)
