in some apps.

Acrylic 7 for WindowBlinds 7

Supported OS: Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP

It's a remake based in the original Acrylic visual style I made in 2006.

I hope you enjoy.

PS. this is the last skin of mine that will support Windows XP.

Important: the .wba file is inside the .zip, extract and double click it (DA is not good handling some file formats).

Giving this a whirl and I must say, I'm quite impressed. It's smooth and the blue is original.
I'm especially impressed that ObjectBar supported your skin, since it never supports Windowblinds themes anymore

Looks very very nice!

One thought though, the minimize glyph should be a little more south. Perhaps more in the middle in comparison to the max glyph.

Thanks for the comment
About the glyph, it's have a different alignment because of the first version of the skin, I tried to make this version close of the original I did in 2006.

heya dani was just wondering were i can get the wallpaper you have posted with your corporate windowblind screenshot it fits really nice but i can find it anywere

danioc In reply to JiGSAW81 [2010-04-07 17:38:38 +0000 UTC]

Hi,
The wallpapers chip with WB7, look inside the Corporate skin folder, there's two different designs in many resolutions, the files are called "Corporate wall 1680x1050.bmm" for example, but looks like they're
not showing @ WB wallapers tab, I'll have to check that with the staff, for now, try renaming the file extension from .bmm to .bmp, this will let you apply the image by yourself.

The files are located @ "C:\Users\Public\Documents\Stardock\WindowBlinds\Corporate"

doesn't slow may system down, it does use 4 MB of memory right know, MSN alone use over 30 MB, I doubt you don't use any 3rd part app that uses more than 4 MB, don't you?

Amazing!

but scrollbars hover state not working sometimes.

Just like this

Snap1:
[link]

Snap2:
[link]

In snap1, scrollbar could change into blue, there is a blackline in scrollbar background if mouse stay

In snap2, scrollbars hover state not working, scrollbar background is good, no blackline.

I found some places in ss6.2, but cant fix it!

But it's a fantastic Job!

@rocky023: hey man, thanks a lot for support.

About the scroolbars, for the snap 1, that sounds like a bad skin load, try reloading the skin, may work.

On the snap 2, I see you're using Maxthon browser, if I remember well, Maxthon uses the scroolbars just like Internet Explorer, in this case, no hover state, you can try IE and hover the scroolbars with or without WB loaded, there will be no hover state.

rocky023 In reply to danioc [2010-03-20 07:38:17 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for answering, mate.

On the snap2,you're right,i confirm it

but on snap1,it has been like this for a long time.

maybe a little problem in wb6.4

Anyway, i love it!

Dani, i fix it! Oh i love it so much!

SS6.2 pro, select "edit scrollbars"--->Horiz "background", "preview state" is not good in my pc, just show only a little bmp.

select "image" tab,click "edit image",select "Frame builder"---->
"import into all frames"(select "scrollbar_back_horiz.bmp")
----->
"save file".

That's all.

wow, this is amazing.

would it be difficult to make it a standard skin for windows 7? im hesitant to use windows blinds as ive had a fair few issues with it before ><

a clear version, or white version would be just as awesome great work once again

This is nothing you cant do with windows 7 visual styles. Also windows blinds slows your pc down and is very unstable.
