Post-apocalyptic (Fallout style) WindowBlinds
Tuesday, February 28, 2012 by Denis55 | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I've just discovered WindowBlinds and I LOVE IT! My PC looks awesome now, and has a whole new feel to it. And this site is full of awesome people an their awesome work. However, I've been search for an post-apocalyptic styled WindowBlind (something like this, with a retro-futuristic, Fallout feel to it), but unfortunately I couldn't find any. Are there similar themes I'm missing, or is someone interested in making something like that? That would really be my dream theme. ![]()
Thanks in advance for your replies!

Not sure if my Engine Room stuff would fit the bill, but you could take a look......... It's all quite old now though.......... https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/all/search/engine+room

Oh yeah!
Come on Bry ..... this is right up your ally.
EDIT: I downloaded the WB. I know it was made for XP. I want to see if it will run on Win7.

Wow, I knew this was a helpful community, but I didn't expect this many replies in such a short time. ![]()
@DrJBHL: I've checked out those guys' work and they really look impressive, but I'll wait for Boxxi's reply to see if he's interested in giving it a shot before I PM them.
@BoXXi: Your Engine Room blind looks great, but it's not quite what I was hoping for. I'm currently using this one and it's awesome (it even has a nice sound scheme) however it looks a bit too "futuristic" and "clean" for what I was looking for. If Engine Room and neOS had a child though, with a few rusts, worn-out buttons and nuclear signs here and there, I think it would be spot on! ![]()

The Fett skin looks awesome, and it's closest to what I was looking for yet. Thanks a million guys!

@Lantec.....the link takes you to a pic of Fett, not to the WB.

Here's the link to the Windowblind "Fett": https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/windowblinds/5938/
(sorry... I should have posted that link back in #12).
And that's the truth. Just tried it, Bry, and it looks great!

Glad to hear your enthusiasm, Denis55. Also, welcome to the Community. While I have been around for awhile, I don't remember seeing anything like that. I think you could pm Snowman (who has the hugest archive of skins that I know of).
You could also pm Vampothika and neone6 who live in close proximity to each other. Vampothika loves a challenge and is a Master Skinner. neone6 has come on the scene more recently, but shows talent and flare in his skinning. I think they're currently working on a painting project... but hive it a try. Another Master Skinner, 2of3 might take on the challenge.
