Trident WB - Work in progress
A modern UI
Thursday, September 23, 2010 by vStyler | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Started this a couple of days ago, time for a preview I think.
Going for a sleek, modern looking UI, in my favorite colors.
Will post more as I progress.
Feel free to stop by my site and say hi - MaxStyles

A very clean skin John. Simple and usable. I think I'll call up the boss and ask him if I can do another go 'round with the WB trial. It'd be worth it just to get some of these awesome skins coming out. This one's a five in advance. Keep on truckin' dude.

Aha! That window actually looks pretty cool. Especially the transparent text background. Adds that finishing touch.
Awesome as always. ![]()
Considering your previous work speed, I expect this finished in about 12 hours. With two other mockups being posted. And a hidden blind that you never announced being released as well. ![]()

can't spoil the rippers...have to keep 'em waiting a little longer than that.....besides, would destroy their reputations if it got out v could design and skin 'em faster than they could rip 'em....

I could, some folks do i suppose, more like a production line than anything, but doesn't bode well for originality or quality imo. ![]()
I can't work like that myself, too much of a massive compulsive obsessive type. Almost every single image and image state is zoomed to X3200 dozens of times before I might be finally happy with it, manipulating every shape's vector points to as close to perfection as I can get. (or photoshop will allow)
It is the only way to ensure pixels aren't hanging over a quarter or an eighth of a pixel.
This ensures zero blurriness at 100%.
It's not the fastest way of working, but to me, it's definitely the best.
