Hi guys!

I just finished a mockup, together with my friend Keito. And well... maybe, if a lot of people like it, we can make it into a visual style. Although, we don't even know how to create a complete VS, simply because we've never done it before tongue.gif

Anyways, here's a preview:

Tell us what you think! biggrin.gif

looks good. although you should lose the line half-way through the bars and go for a gradient. IMHO
DomZ
I think it's cool!
minkcar
I lOVE it, and I think the line should stay smile.gif

LOL! Oh yeah indeed...

I had to translate it from Dutch to English, so that's where the mistake was tongue.gif

I like it.
Pros:
- small bars
- blue (yay! no need to change my desktop should this be used)
- looks like it won't attract attention from work
- cool start button :>
Cons:
- nothing truly innovative in this one (except the start button) - this kind of minimize/full screen/close buttons I've already seen; concept for bar massively used in other VS

Anyway should you finished this one, here's one user for it smile.gif 'cos I simply like it

Looks good to me. wink.gif

Looks very good thumbs_up.gif
Storm
Loving it!
murderdoll
it looks like infini8 a little, but anyways usable with some other nice start button, maybe a windows flag or something.

Thanks for the positive replies so far everyone. But unfortunately, Stylebuilder is ****ing me of really bad. I have absolutely no idea how to operate it. So I'm not quite sure if this will ever get finished. I can make everything in Photoshop, but that would be quite useless.

Maybe Keito and me can colab with someone who is more experienced at Stylebuilder... We'll have to see... smile.gif

I like how it looks, but it's not different enough from other themes for me to care about.

looks very good so far.

I gradient would look tacky. This looks a like a swish theme. I like smile.gif

Jesus I feel your pain. I've just finished a mock-up but the last two hours I spent with StyleBuilder (having never used it before) leads me to believe it'll never see reality. Can I post my mock-up, what are the rules?

Yours looks very good indeed. Hopefully you get further than me.

That looks pretty damn sweet. yes.gif

Yes you do...

And on behalf of status_seeker and me I can asure you we won't finish this ^^; we don't have the time for it right now, to learn how SB works completely and make all the other parts of the VS...

So if you want to feel free to elaborate on that what we made , if you do so, please give us some credit for it though smile.gif

Yes, because t can take up to a month to make a theme, and thats if you know how to use the program. But PM me and ill give you something for stylebuilder you might want.
MkNawabi
i think the window title bars are too big. make them smaller please :] (but not too small. give like 2 or 3 pixels above and below the text)
imtoomuch
The mockup is PERFECT the way it is. If you guys do make a VS out of this mockup, I can tell you I will finally have a new VS. I've been using Royale forever. I haven't seen a good VS in a long time, but this one gives me hope that there will be some good ones released eventually. Now, please do what it takes to have this turned into a VS and released! biggrin.gif

Hey ... If you do work on this maybe some other colors ? I would like red very much , blue is nice too by the way . That's a nice mockup too I hope it get's farther !
technikal
yep...keep it as is. its pretty cool looking.

remember to include a winflag start wink.gif
