Description
There's a new word for ya
Don't be misled by the category. This is not an actual theme, but a concept of the theme I will try to make.
If you've read my journal entries you may have noticed that this version looks a bit different to my previous ones. This version is a concept of an actual theme I plan on making and not a concept of an operating system. The main differences are that this concept is based in the realms of what is actually possible for me to theme and so it looks a bit more similar to the Windows 7 you know today. I plan on making this theme with Windows Style Builder. If that fails I will try my hand at WindowBlinds - in which case I may be able to make the toolbar glassed

I'm guessing by transpiration you mean transparency? (transpiration is a form of evaporation from plants)

Cool concept, I would like to see this as a visual style, compared to WindowBlinds which I don't have

Pretty clean design - combined with the Token Iconset, this will definately rock

Looks really great, I would use this in a heartbeat.
Not to be rude though, but this belongs in desktop screenshots or scraps, it gets a little annoying browsing skins & themes only to see mockups and not functional skins. If you don't feel like moving this, please just remember to update this file when you get it put together and not make a separate submission altogether.
Either way, good work

I wasn't sure where to put it since it isn't a desktop screenshot and it I wouldn't want to call it scrap. Anything I feel worthy to go on dA I feel is better than scrap (and yeah, you can have good scrap but most of my watchers would not see the submission anyway). I made sure to say concept in the title but I totally get what your saying. I will probably move this to another category when my actual theme is done. I will provide a link to the actual theme in this deviation.

this looks pretty, hoping to see it live.

you should remove the separating thing on the close, max end min buttons, so it looks like one big button
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
There are some technical difficulties with doing that, which are hard to explain. I can do it but I am very limited when it comes to hover and pressed states for the buttons. This is because the close button image actually features a small part of the maximize button in it (the right border). So if I want a hover or pressed effect that shows a border between the buttons it will look strange when the maximize or restore buttons are using these states, as they only have their left border in the image and would therefore only show their left border when you hover over them or press them, which would not look good. The only other effect I can think of would be a soft glow at the bottom of the buttons, but I'd have a hard time making a pressed state using a soft glow - wouldn't really fit.

Really like it - but like everyone said, the close buttons are a bit of a downside.
