Yes it is updated. I have replaced white gradients as they seem out of place. Also changed hovers on caption buttons (see the preview image) and changed selections.

Can you change the front/back symbols so that it isn't rainbow? Looks great otherwise!

Try with the default explorerframe. I originally planed to release the vs with no explorerframe at all.
On the other hand I have added blue hovers to glass buttons (I have updated today, check the preview image to see the changes), I may add square buttons of a kind in the future.

Awesome, thank you! Your styles are really wonderful.
A question: where can I get the start orb shown in the screenshot?

Interesting name lol, fits the look pretty well, you did a nice job on this, still not a fan of the Metro look, although I would have to say this looks allot better then Metro

Yeah unfortunately cant put dash in file name, I really wanted it to be 7 1/2. Named it Sette e mezzo to also reference Fellini's movie 8 1/2 for fun, but it felt weird
I am kinda starting to like Metro, but it does seem too simple and cold. W8 home page looks like disease prevention poster, along with freaky stock photos. But still it could work out great, with effects and transitions.

very nice theme as expected from you and even better name 7 1/2
i didnt like 2 things though, the search and refresh buttons on the explorerframe and min./max buttons look like default win7

Thanks. I agree - they do, but that's what I was going for. Just to slightly change it.

Thank you. Glad you like it so much.
Unfortunately that will produce corner bug in Win 7. You know the shape of Aero windows with big rounded corners? Aero blur and colorization is rendered only on surface defined by the borders of default window, so if you change the shape of it it will produce bugs. Only way to have sharp corners and colorization/blur working is to hide those corner pixels, that extend over the limits, with a strong outline.
