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.

Ahhh, will you be making the wallpaper available?

Nope.. its not mine.
Reallly, isn't finding new wallpapers to match new themes a big part of the enjoyment... a lot of times, as with this one, I look for, find a wall, which I like, then spend quite some time modifying the coloring, shading, size etc.. to be able to use it with a screenshot and with the theme,
of course in those cases, I cant redistribute.

Way to go John. I see the great usability of this VS, also can see it recoloring very well too.

Like the new name ....it "fits" it better IMHO. Course I liked the first (controversial) name too. The blind ain't half bad looking either... ![]()

lol... I'm not even sure what everyone is discussing here.. b ut whatever walls folks want.. @ 1920x1200 only they are more than welcome to PM me for, when the WB is done.. I just can't post them. I don't make them all, just the ones I release with my WB's. The rest are pure mods.
Thanks everyone !

looks like v's not the only one skinning Sakura...

poor second? not so... Vino was a cute name... especially incorporating the 'V'... Sakura is a little more oriental and exotic though...
sometimes takes awhile for a name to lend itself to a blind... or a blind to lend itself to a name...
Interestingly, I believe it's the same blossom in the wall above.
another lovely one... thanks doc... looks good with Penthouse too... & looks like they could be Sakura cherry blossoms too.... [e digicons]:karma:[/e]

I'm generally not a fan of tattoos (I think they're trashy) but that is art.

Like any fine wine, this is getting better with age. The new name lends a bit more class to an already classy WB.
