XP, Vista and Win 7

Monday, March 22, 2010 by vStyler | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

k, so the concept was to get as far away from the last theme I did as possible and still be able to skin Win 7 completely and correctly.

 

I also wanted to make a red and black theme that took advantage of the dramatic contrasts that this color combo can achieve.

 

Devilish, menacing, provokative, I dunno.. thats what is running through my head as I throw this PS mockup together.

 

I suppose I will be doing a light and dark windows version as I dont see anyway around it...

 

...so this one may take a while to complete but here it is in it early.. fluid stage.

 

Oh and I may just keep the small branding text... cos I know would approve 

 

will post updates as they are formulated.

@ theAVMAN

The clocks look great and will go nice with the blinds, but they don't have the sincere identity with respect to the windowblinds true style. Would you be willing to make one rectangular or square clock using the start menu graphic? Then it will be banging lol

 

STILL GREAT

I like that idea, I can even do the gfx if ur up for it AV, would be a nice edition to ur vast array of clocks

SCREENSHOTS DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE.

I'm known for speaking my mind and I'll do just that...

That THING is something unlike any other, hard to explain.

What I've seen and experienced; words can barely describe and will miserably come short.

I'd rather use it in its undone stage than using any other finish skins I've ever seen and used. It makes everything else vStyler has done look trashy. I know! They are all masterpieces, but one day you'll all get to experience it. I got a headache.  I did not expect it to be this good, even from a master of that calibra.

I may have said the same thing everytime he came out with a new one, but I guess I'll have to say it again (This time it's final). I don't think he can get any better than this. You know... this skin make me speak from the heart. This is as good skinning will ever get.

Don't let this skin discourage you from skinning guys. Skinning must go on.

I have to agree....really needs to be experienced to be truly appreciated...

 

IR:  This is a great skin for watching tv on your pc late at night.

 

I was using it last night....with no lights on....and the glow is so amazing....jumps off the screen at you...
