Description
A quick shot of how the taskbar for my next Dota2 themed visual style is coming along.Though not sure on the exact colors to use (and many other things either yet) here's an updated screenshot with an explorer window open.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When finished, the theme will (likely) include:
- The visual style
- Installation guide
- Navigation icons - explorerframe.dll
- Clock - timedate.cpl
- Shell style - shell32.dll
- Start orbs - Windows and Steam orbs, with or without frames
- Matching Rainmeter skin
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With any questions, requests, suggestions, feedback, or help contact me:
- Mail: yorgash@mailbox.hu
- Steam: yorgash
- Skype: yorgash
- Or leave a note here, on DA
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you like my work and want to see more, or support the making you can donate via PayPal at yorgash@mailbox.hu.
You can also purchase the Premium Content on the site as a form of donation.
The Premium Content also contains the current beta version of the visual style, but as it's being built on another theme of mine, the consistency may vary as there are more yet to be made parts of the style than what's already made.

There's one for Windows 8 too, though you can use a resource editor to replace the explorer.exe textures as well (I use Restorator 2009).
But if you want it for the Dota2 theme, it's not ported to Windows 8 at all, so you'll have to find another theme.
If you need assistance and have a certain start orb in mind, but still can't change it, I can edit the png resources into bmp so they will work with the Windows 8 Start Button Changer too.

if you don't mind me asking what program did you use to make this skin? I really like this skin along with the others you have done and I would like to make some of my own.

First of all: thanks!
I don't mind at all.
I use Vista Style Builder (www.vistastylebuilder.com) , but any Windows Style Builder should suffice to make the skin, and Adobe Photoshop to edit the textures.

when building/making your themes do you use base themes and work off of that or do you make/build them from scratch? Cause from what I have seen using base themes is the way to go.

I usually make them from scratch or one of my previous themes.
I mean, I have to redo all parts of them anyways, so it doesn't make that much of a difference for me; maybe the only thing I take into consideration when building a theme is whether I'll be building a dark theme or a light one, to be able to read the text while making it.

Awesome as always man. Looking forward to the final version. Uhm, i was just wondering though. Have you consider making a Dawngate win7 theme along with some cool rainmeter skins for it ? Been playing that game non-stop lately and i like the whole visual style and layout of the ui and as a whole. Cheers !
