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).

Real nice Work. But the classic Acrylic Theme looks a little bit better on XP.

Nice update Danillo.
I'm really sad to hear your stopping on the XP versions.
I am still using XP and at this time can't update to Windows7.
But, I know this was going to happen more and more.

@bluesman219: thanks a lot: About the "XP death", now days it's not viable to make the XP styles anymore because Vista and windows 7 bring new skinning ways that XP lack and some of the XP parts give too much work to skin for a OS that has two newer versions and is almost 10 years old.

bluesman219 In reply to danioc [2010-03-03 02:13:50 +0000 UTC]
I don't disagree at all. I didn't change to Vista because
there just seemed to be a lot of issues with that system
but I did start looking into buying a new computer tower
with Windows7.
I like XP and have had few problems with that OS but I do realize it's becoming extinct.

I don't get why people are still favorising visual styles, so many are still aero clones with slight changes here and there. I see no sense in aero with a different start-orb... You can skin so much more with WindowBlinds and don't need to hack system half a dozen system dll's to make it look good/complete... And it runs like native on a decent computer. Everyone having issues with WB should look for other major issues on his machine 1st. Using it since ver 1.5 flawlessly.

@c242: most people favs VS because it's free (my opinion) but for me (once again my opinion) WB is way better to work with (build/use visual styles) because the features offered.

it's because people are too cheap to buy Windowblinds. They don't know what they're missing.

What's that font you're using? I'm not getting the same one.

danioc In reply to Emilcore [2010-03-01 10:59:05 +0000 UTC]
@emilcore: hey, the skin use OS native fonts (Segoe UI) in different sizes and with some shadows variations but the skin has a setting to install the skin fonts if your system does not have them.

Emilcore In reply to danioc [2010-03-01 11:44:06 +0000 UTC]
Oh I have Segoe UI, It just doesn't look like yours. Especially context menus. I get MS Sans Serif on them.

danioc In reply to Emilcore [2010-03-01 14:31:15 +0000 UTC]
@emilcore: are you @ XP? if so, that's probably cause the skin use the "OS default font" for some areas and @ Vista and Win7 the OS default font is Segoe UI, try open WindowBlinds window and look for the tab "Fonts" the the bottom, there, set the font to Segoe UI and apply., If you're not on XP, try unloading WB, delete the skin and then reinstall it, could a bad skin cache.

@mexetudo13: would be impossible to make many of the skin design with the VS method cause WB has some exclusive features and give us more skinning controls/methods, in a VS hack you're very limited to replace images and adjust some settings .9thant I read and heard).
