nice nice nice, but one thing, i don like the transparent start menu section. other than that, i like the blue one the best. ^_^
Looks pretty cool, but I don't really like the transparent start menu either..

woot i like it...and the wall too!!
Same thing here, nifty idea, just doesn't look too well.
I came in here expecting to bash you for another boring LH theme. Hell, I don't even like crystal themes at all but this isn't too bad. The taskbar looks like 2 pixels or so are chopped off at the bottom though. Nice work.
Looks nice but it got too much reflection... it's a pale blue... and the start menu... anyway still nice
compact startmenu would b nice
another colour than that blu?
otherwise good work!
Overall looks good. Could be improved tho. The start menu is uhhh, and the blue is a bit "neon" to me.
Congrats, I think I'll repatch my uxtheme just to use this. I was a bit apprehensive before seeing the screen shots (I mentally added "Kinda Unoriginal" to "Kinda Crystal Kinda Aero") but that seems to work really well. Good job.

Well Done.
haha, kewl work
would like that wallpaper to
Okay, so, looking at a screenshot and using the style are two different things. I still think it has a lot of potential, there's just a few things
I'd like to see changed... So here's my critique, image style.

It's an awesome theme aside from the few little bugs and things that should be fixed it's VERY nice. Also, Where can we get that awesome wallpaper? It matches the theme perfectly and it's hot.
I like it, and I like the baby blue too.
A few suggestions though
the taskbar is thin, but titlebars aren't. Could you change that?
Someone suggested a Compact start menu already, which I agree with.
Also, would there be some way to make the Programs section of the startmenu have those transparencies? Like, between the rows? I dunno, that might or might not look good, but it's an idea
Adding back that bar at the top of the startmenu with the icon and name? I kinda liked it.
And that extra white border in the SS.
Scroll bars are also a little thick, along with that suggestion of changing them to blue by default.
And maybe a few other colors/alternate start buttons for a bit of variety?
Just suggestions from my personal experience,
Thanks.
Love the visual style
But maybe a thin starpanel
And love the transparent starmenu
Very nice well done

the wallpaper is in the desktop screenshots for this month on about page 20 .. its a mod of a mod and i have no idea where the original came from but RDD posted his flavor
if anyone figures out where it came from a link to the original would be great
thanks for the feedback people !!
i have to agree with people that the startmenu looks a little .... incomplete .. im not sure what im going to do about it but i want to keep the transparency .. as far as i know its the only one like it .. if i can just make it work with the rest of the style

I think it would be cool if you'd move the taskbar sections abit closer to each other...

looks great...the only thing i would like to see as an option is a thin start menu, and maybe darken the text on the left of the start menu, or darken the gradient...the white text is a little difficult to read sometimes...

I'm not usually a fan of styles like this, but you pulled it off very well. Good job man.
Nice update, I like it.
I noticed in your original theme, you had a Y'z Toolbar theme applied. Could you please tell me which one/where I might find it?
Thanks
