Sol III WIP
Wednesday, June 3, 2020 by 2of3 | Discussion: Sneak Previews
Here's the first draft of a concept design I started on today.
Mind you, this is an early draft which could change drastically as I go along!
The skin name is Sol III because that is one of the names for Earth in the ST universe and also because there are 3 styles.
Update:
Added stripes. Cuz I like stripes!
And the evolution continues. Gone, are the black stripes on the top and bottom. Simplified the black area slightly then added the colored stripe down the middle. I think less IS more here......details need to enhance the skin, not muddy the look.
Shown here with the taskbar. Buttons shown: Normal, Mouse, and Selected/Active State. Finally a comm-badge as a start button.

@RedneckDude, how did you manage to get the trash icon so big?
I use a small app called MyTrashCan. Fully customizeable. Has sounds, and you can use your own sounds and icons.

The page is in Japanese. Google translate is a tool.
If you have issues with a Japanese site, hit me up and I'll PM it to you, It is free.

Chuck, you can assign sounds from SoundPackager if you like.

On that particular icon, I added the trash bag.
I was asked on skype, so, in case you don't know, there are all kinds of free icons online. .ico or .png work great!
