Polaris WB - WIP
tinker tinker.. hammer, smack..kick.. curse..
Friday, October 2, 2009 by vStyler | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
After doing a very dark theme, I enjoy using it so much I've decided to do another dark, but less dark theme, without the need for a substyle 
I'm calling it Polaris for a couple of reasons, has rather a radioactive look and my father served as first weapons officer on the Polaris class nuclear sub H.M.S Resolution for many years. One of 4 Polaris class subs the British navy had back then, all since decomissioned. The orange really has no significance other than it is one of the better.. glowey colors and goes really well with a dark grey\blue.... oh... and it just happens to be October 
Anyway.. so far so good, will post screens as I have them. I'm a bit disappointed in the lack of orange matching icons available. There are a couple of decent sets but nothing that matches perfectly and IP's recoloring feature is rather meagre. Bit disappointed on that front. Maybe a certain someone wants to step up 
I see after laying some elements out together than some of the oranges need matched up slightly better... oh well.. is a WIP..It'll get sorted out... all in good time.
Cheers.

Sorry, not the best screenshot, done in paint, the old one that comes with the PC. Still having a few problems with my other rig.

minimalistic, yet stylish 
It would have been nice if all websites would not allow their backgrounds to be skinned as Facebook does. They oblige you you to use light skin 
Nice skin
