Sakura WB - Work in progress

Monday, August 15, 2011 by vStyler | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Time for a new un'  !

I wanted to use a less conventional color on this one, lord knows we have enough blue, green and red themes!

Also wanted to get back to using some translucency, Ive missed it  Also something a little more conventional, style-wise.

So here are the humble beginnings of Sakura WB for Win 7

 

Will post more as it progresses... as usual.   Thanks to everyone who continues to support me and my work.

 

If it wasn't for you guys, I really don't know where I would be.

DAMN Snowman, what a memory!

That, yes, and a collection of 9200+ WBs, dating back over a decade.

I haven't created a 'bunch of blinds and used other peoples names"...

No, but someone (no names mentioned) have created alot of WBs with same names as many older and not so old skins.

*sigh. Tried to head that one off with delightful wit... well, half way succeeded. Requi-yum is a delish name....

John, I love it and don't give a damn what you name it. I think I'll get it just to customize it... "V-in" (as in Vin)

My goodness all that for a skin name. Ok, Vino it is and any name was Ok to me as the name doesn't make the skin. That's over now so back to the topic and updates.

I'm curious how you chose the colours--did you use a program to pick complementary colours, or do it by eye?

Guess I've always had a knack for colors, but, there's a lot of trial and error involved too... doesn't just fall onto paper first time.. for sure.

Maybe more just knowing what looks good, and what makes my eyes burn.. lol.

You just know when it's right

Cheers WS !
