Releasing a bit earlier than planned is my next visual style....ProjectX

I wanted to make a Visual Style that was sexy, yet subtle.
Eye catching, yet didn't distract you from what you are doing.
And most importantly, a Visual Style that you could keep applied for a long time.
I think I have successfully done just that

I just labeled a folder called "projectx" and began work. Well, the name stuck with it.
Has features such as white glow window buttons, white glow start button, and much more.
Enjoy!

Oops, download link now up. Thanks! I'm glad that you like it. I been through alot of transitions on the start button and feel that this was best suited for the theme. But, they may pose problems for me in the future

Nice work however i am with RenderItBlue that the start button is a bit lacking in design however the rest of it looks great... too bad i do not use windows i would use it myself.

Thanks for all the comments! Perhaps in the future, a better idea for a start button will strike me and I will modify it

Looks amazing, is there anyway of you making a WindowBlinds version? I suppose I could just import it into SkinStudio and export it, but a dedicated make would be better, for obvious reasons
Either way, great work, muchos respect.

I'm sorry, but the awkward blur at the end of the shine on the top of the windows, the start button and the open/close/minimize buttons really aren't doing it for me. Sorry.

APH Alex, the akward blur is only on windows from Windows Explorer. Programs shine is fine. It was unavoidable for me to make the 'shine' perfect on Windows Explorer. Windows just streches the image causing that wierd blur. But, oh well, if it not your taste then it's not your taste. Im sure you will find something that suits you better.
Everyone else, because of the high demand (and I'm tired of hearing about it) I may come with a thin taskbar substyle soon.
Thank you for all the great comments!

Love it, using it ATM!
P.S. I love the task bar as is
Logged in just to say this theme rocks and will now be my official Vista theme. (unless something better comes along, but I seriously doubt it)
The only way to take this to the next level would be to develop matching skins for popular software.

Following in PLuG8s' footsteps, would like to say this is the cleanest theme yet.
Smart, usable work. Nicely Done.
