On deck: Best pseudo-OS visual style

Tuesday, May 25, 2004 by Frogboy | Discussion: GUI Championships News

Coming onto the judges radar this week is the best Pseudo-OS visual style. Which WindowBlinds skin could you imagine being the default skin of some operating system? Not what skin looks like an existing operating system, just which one do you think would make a good skin for an operating system?

My God. What an amazing set of windowblinds here. I have to admit. I did a little list of my favourites, and I think they are winners. Best section of all the site for sure. I'd rather not rate these, but damn the judges have alot of work cut out for them. These are my favourites. designeD4 VectorCell Blanco dada Vladstudio Sibylle Desktop You guys ROCK! I only wish for all these themes to be ported to uxtheme.dll styles. Word.

There's no doubt there are a lot of extremely well done windowblinds in this category, but only a few give us something that differs from a lot of already made visual styles, - and, Windows itself. In my opinion, the three windowblinds that has the edge to promote an operating system, are: 1. NeOS [danilloOc] 2. Airlock [MikeB314] 3. Vector-Cell [b0se]

As I took another look at the different skins in this category I had to ask myself the question - would this skin really look good for an operating system? There were a lot of skins that were incredible skins but I don't think that they would be a great skin for an operating system. Of course, a lot of this is completely to the opinion of the judges. But here's my 5 favorites: Gold - Pirate OS Silver - Lithium Bronze - Blanco 4th - Airlock 5th - Limbic Good job everybody!

blanco should win this time, the skin is too great to win no title...

Have to be Limbic, Grift and Dojo tied first place, then Pirate OS tied for all the other medals. So many good ones to choose from...

I think we need a "try again next time" category... I'd be in that.

Have I mentioned, that I vote for: 1. NeOS 2. StealthOS and 3. Airlock ? Yes I believe I had! But better twice than one! Maybe it will count in the voting!?
