Visions for Windowblinds - RELEASED
Wednesday, April 4, 2012 by LightStar | Discussion: Sneak Previews
Working on bringing over one of my more popular .msstyles to Windowblinds for Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. Doing a complete revamp and looking good so far I think. Comments appreciated as usual!

Startmenu/taskbar is looking snashing, but the other menues are looking a bit... well... bleh-ish, imo. ![]()

Very nice work! There is one part that my personal taste isn't lining up with, though. The darker part of the gradient on the control panel items list seems a little too dark to me. It's almost like the thin blue line on the left is casting a shadow on the icons, which make them look like they're almost trying to hide.
This is coming from someone that prefers a good CLI most days, so use as many grains of salt with this as you deem necessary. ![]()

I miss DOS sometimes.
Me too, Rosco, me too.
I still highly enjoy bringing up DOS just to mess around with commands - and freak out anyone not having a clue wtf DOS is. ![]()
If only I had a dollar for each time I've been asked: OMG?!?! Are you a hacker???

Very minimal, very clean, very Lightstar. Very good!

I very much like the look of this. Altosa has been in steady rotation this month though . . not sure I have room for another LightStar production.
