Request -- Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek, Star Wars
Saturday, February 11, 2012 by QBallRail | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I don't know if people take requests but what I have not seen are skins (or blinds, if you will)for sci fi flicks. I think someone did an LCARS one way back but didn't update.. But it would be cool to see something like that. I have the SG1 blind. I think the Classic Battlestar would be pretty cool as well as something from Trek and Star Wars. Believe me, if I had the time and the ability, I would do them myself but I have seen some spectacular work from Boxxi, Vampothica, TomRicter, Neone6, Klown and others. Perhaps a collaborated work?
Just a thought, and hopefully there are others interested in this and I think something of the quality of these creators would be awesome. I can help offering suggestions and perhaps testing.

There are several in the galleries. Try some of these:
- Cylon
- Old Republic
- PADD
- TrooperV
Those were just some I happened to have installed, I recall seeing others though.

I also did 3 Borg blinds although Assimilation V3 is the only one worth mentioning IMO.

Resistance is futile. You must download this skin and be forever assimilated. Please. lolo

TrooperV

The Cylon is for Vista 
and the reimagined series. I'm looking specifically for Classic BSG. What is TrooperV?
Thanks!

If you're running Windows 7 the Cylon skin will work. I ran it for awhile on Win 7 64 bit. As for TrooperV ... no clue.

I could dig on a nice Win7 LCARS, if done right. I'm extremely picky, though. [e digicons](\

Many have tried, all have failed IMO.
I did see a screeny of a cool LCARS DX theme that's being worked on....trying to find it.
PS I'm not talking about the one that HG has been working on for 10 years

But then again, there may be "issues" surrounding this theme: https://forums.wincustomize.com/109234

That looks pretty slick, actually.
I now have a desire to see if anyone's made a build of Android with the LCARS interface that I can put on my NOOK Color. I have a feeling I will be sorely disappointed...
