Dude, you can't let me see this and then don't have a release for it

The possibility of this being a theme is close to 0. It just wouldn't come out well. There's a better chance of this becoming a theme.

I would love for you to use them but unfortunately I re-did the check boxes. I can re-make them though. Do you want a psd or something else, and what size canvas?

Yeah, those guys over at Microsoft have no style.

Love it! Although I personally would use blue/orange for the buttons, with around the same saturation. That's just personal preference though

Thanks
Yeah, I was thinking the color was a little too pastely. I will be messing around with some more colors later on. Yeah, the close button color needs to be lightened also.

If you are releasing this as a Win7 VS, you should include different colors. And quite like the strength of the color, just not the color itself

I have no knowledge on creating Visual Styles. Would have to grab someone who does and ask them for some help.

Aw, thats too bad

Yeah, maybe I'll get to that at some point. I do plan on incorporating as much as I can into Rainmeter, I do know how to program the RM configs pretty well. Such as the taskbar I will be creating, that should be pretty simple to create in Rainmeter.

Mkay, well if you need any help, I'm available

Looks pretty good. Looks a little too... plain. Maybe add some shadows, or something to give it a little more pop?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep, I will be adding more accents as I build more on the concept.

Looking forward to seeing the final

I do not like this one as I like your others man. The text looks blurry, I also do not like the top panel - the exit button should be more visible, and the colours just do not fit to me.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The text may look blurry because it is indented. Meaning there is a shadow inside of it making it look indented. If you look closely you may notice it. I was thinking the same thing about the caption buttons, I plan on altering them. I went with these colors to make it more like the current windows os, with white, instead of that green that I had on my previous mockup. I was starting to get bored of the green. I might change the top panel, we'll see. Remember, I still have a lot more to do, it may change a lot between now and then.

Of course you may change the whole design, till the release. I be just trolling, you know

The line is only 1 px. I turned down the fill of the layer completely. Added a color overlay of a dark gray on Difference. Noticed it being used in another psd I looked at and liked the outcome.

Not sure there is any Critiques that could be said this is very very nice, I think you really should A release the images as png's so people without cs can make your idea in to real apps or maybe make a real app with it, this is really nice well done man.

I plan on making a Rainmeter skin out of this. When it is complete.
