Assimilation V3
Thursday, August 19, 2010 by 2of3 | Discussion: Sneak Previews
I have always wanted to to the "ultimate" borg blind.
My first attempt was made in 2007.
Assimilation
I was immensely proud of it when I finished it and uploaded 
........but.......look at it! 
Oh well, I keep it up to remind me of how far I've come.
Attempt 2 in 2008 was a bit better.
Assimilation V2
A real improvement but still kinda.............meh!
I guess it's time to try again, so I give you
Assimilation V3
First, the concept drawing in photoshop
Here's how it's looking as of today. Still lot's to do 
I don't know if this is the "Ultimate Borg Blind" or not but I think it's looking pretty damn good!

Much of the Borg gear is black leather-like. Will we be seeing any of that?

TRADITIONNNN! TRADITION!
Speakin' 'o tradition, are we gonna stick with the originals' dark/black background and white text?
There's a REAL shortage of good, properly working blinds with dark backgrounds like that,
which is a real pity, coz it cut down on that late-night white screen glare eye-pains...

Nice Tim, Im a bit conficted about white text in some areas, menus etc, and dark in others, start menu, the white text doesnt seem borgish enough, I don't.... fear... it? ... and in general doesn't match up well in my eyes.
Graphically, looking tight mate, much improved from early versions

Slow but sure
Many of the things I'm working on now are more "behind the scenes" things......IE stuff you wouldn't see on a day to day basis, but still need to be skinned.
