New Blind Anyone?
Sunday, April 10, 2011 by JuniorCrooks | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
OK usually people make blinds and then create all the goodies to go with them. I am doing it in reverse. I would like to hire someone to make a blind to go with my latest smx. Yes I will pay. Below is the image of the skin I want the blind to match. Let me know if you are interested.

Me too but my skills are not there yet.

I am sure there are lots of WB skinners that would love to tackle this JC, but you probably not need to pay for it. There are lots of current skins that if you recolor them would match you SMX perfectly. I just recolored my current WIP and it matches your SMX perfectly too. If you can wait until it is done that is.

Navigatsio's Majik WB would go great with it too!

Thanks Tom. I have recolored some blinds but just was not all that happy with it. I also do not mind paying. If someone wants to do it for free that is a bonus but I have been blessed with a good job so do not mind sharing some love. I am looking forward to your blind too.
What I had in mind for the blind would be a light colored taskbar that matched the gauge rims with a dark start menu and that purple font. Just not sure about how that would look though.

I'd be willing to give it a try (for free -- being "hired" puts too much pressure on me). I'm in the middle of a blind right now, but will probably be able to get to this in a couple weeks if you're willing to wait that long.

Hi Karen,
For sure I can wait and thanks a lot. Take your time and do it your way ignoring my suggestions if its not aesthetically pleasing. I trust your judgement ![]()

"Dang Junior, that's nice!!!!"
Thanks a lot pal. Glad you think so.

Tom you were right. Majik recolored does go quite nicely with the skin or maybe I should say my skin goes nicely with Navs majik blind.

Yes that is what I am thinking to Karen. I owe you one.

What are you calling the smx, so I can name the blind the same thing? Also, do you think you could send me a sample of your graphics so I can match them?

I am calling the smx skin iStat Tuned but that might not be a good name for the blind. Feel free to come up with your own name and I can always change the name of my skin. I was not all that happy with the name to begin with but it was the first thing I thought of so I went with it. Just pm me with your email address and I will send you the graphics, such as they are.

Hmmmmm ...... what is that old saying? The sum of all parts or some such. This could be the beginning of the part of all sums. Ohhh ... lame.

Have you been self-medicating again???
Yeah, I know.... but it made sense to me
[but then, maybe I took one med too many]
BTW, although I use Winstep for my meters and etc, I like the look of the SMX a lot, and I'm sure Karen will come up with a top notch blind to go with it.
Yay Karen. ![]()

Thanks stalkers. I am also doing a blue version that looks quite nice.
