WIP "8 for 7"
by request
Tuesday, September 16, 2014 by 2of3 | Discussion: WindowBlinds
I have picked up on the fact that there are some people that would like a skin that mimics the windows 8 GUI for use on windows 7.
I've decided to take up the "challenge" since I'm currently not working on anything else.
Here is the first draft after a couple of hrs work:
I plan on doing 2 versions. One as shown and one darker with white fonts and titlebar glyphs. My goal is that it will recolor easily as well. I may perhaps make some discrete "artistic license" changes where necessary.

Reproducing a design is a lot harder than one would think. Blame MS for the look, my job is to make it as accurate as possible.
Thanks, Andy

I have the light substyle finished! It also includes a seperate style for thin taskbar users. Anyone wanting to test it out can get the beta version by PMing me here.

Well, as good as 8 can look, in it's natural form.
