er months of buggering around in C4D I think I might just be ready to try pull off a true Chrome windowblind.. You know. not just metallic looking gradients and highlights, but real, rendered, reflective materials and about as far away from Vista as I can possibly imagine going, at least regarding material composition.
Finished.

I'm sitting on pins and needles over here. Your blind is coming along beautifully. Can't wait for this one or did I say that already. No matter...lookin' good dude. Second Mirsguy on the buttons. Adds nice contrast.

Hey monkeh man how about a tray dock???? Cool lookin docks

I've changed the taskbar config quite significantly and decided to go with a flat toolbar\statusbar as WB just isn't capable of using images with horizontal gradients there and displaying them correctly.
Will post a big update soon.
Munkeh only showed a small preview of the docks, Ive seen em all so far and they are GREAT.
Pixel is also working on a kickass K r o m e Xion, it's going to be special too.

Updated screeny.. bout half way thu XP, hardest theme I've ever attempted I think. I wish WB did a better job anti-aliasing titlebar fonts.
I'll be uploading several wooden walls that I've made for this too.. I think they go particularly well with it.

Awesome work my friend! Good to see something from you without irritating transparency in it, very usable and excellent design!

I like the new taskbar best. The others didn't do the chrome effect justice; less is more.

I like it Vstyler, what is the icons you are using in the startmenu?

I won't be impressed before I see my own face mirrored in the chrome.
