"Live Free Or Die Hard" windowblinds theme
Friday, January 14, 2011 by NODReedemer | Discussion: WindowBlinds
OK, this is pretty cool. You all remember that Die Hard movie from like 3,5 years ago? You know, the - "Live Free or Die Hard" one? And you remember that guy called Matthew Farrell in the movie? Well, that dude had some pretty cool OS he used on his computer, that looked like this(screenshots from the movie):

So, I was wondering, is there anyone out there among you windowblinds skinners with a skill to make a theme like this for Windows 7? I bet it would be a very downloaded piece of software. Can someone do it? It doesn't look very complicated, as it is very simple, two color theme. I would've done it myself, but i don't have the necessary skills.

I forgot to mention, I really like the font style. I believe it fits this blind perfectly.
Very nice.

LightStar, I again forgot to mention this - I was wondering, is it possible to make the copy progress bar animation to look like this:
as seen in the movie? Or at least similar?

Yep, no problem!

I to thought this was a cool look when I saw the movie the first time but, I never thought to ask a skinner to make it because I know the amount of work that goes into window blinds. I really like the designs you have come up with Lightstar keep up the Great work. Now I can only hope that it has a windows 7 substyle

Looks sleek 
(Is "What if your hurt" instead of "What if you're hurt" the way it's supposed to be?)
