[Zain Adeel]

I'd say stronger, so that it fills up most of the button (like in the Superbar) but so that it doesn't get cut off at any of the edges.

[Zain Adeel]

what were u talking about?? didnt u say the unselected pinned items??

the small orb under them?

or where u talking about the whole glow thing?

I'm not exactly sure what he meant. :p

I'd say what you did above, just a bit stronger, without it getting cut off.

Kind of like this, but without the rest of the "fill."

[Zain Adeel]

to be very honest i still dont get u :p

but ill do something

I'm very bad at concept images but this is what I mean... sorta.

Edit: Here's something closer to what I mean, but the minimise one is a bit too large. :p

Not bad, I think the colours need to be a bit more vibrant.

Wonder what it would look like with glow below? Probably best on top though.

[Zain Adeel]

tried vibrant.. but the glow looks unrealistic..

i mean it looks like a ball of light..

not glow :p

anyway.. this is gonna be the final :) tried it and tested it and suits every kind of background for me :)

will continue tommorrow now.. need a break... workin on this for 5 days non stop when im on comp.. :p

40% done with the superbar

the overlays and show desktop area left

[Fluxii Media]

would be cool if you made a version of this with square corners. :] but so far it looks awesome, I love the glow effect for the min,max,close buttons. Can't wait to see the rest.

Looking good, Zain :)

[HawkMan]

Looks great, pretty much what I meant

Now if you replace the too damn visible app is running overlays with the hover icons (like the ones you did on min/max/close) or at least the less visible ones from before the RC release, I might actually consider switching from the default Aero theme.

I LOVE it. Looks awesome already.

:yes: There isn't an emote in the world to show how much I love that gradient on the superbar. It's something I've been looking for forever. :D

Just to make sure, you'll be making this theme for x64 and x86 yeah?

[Zain Adeel]

well i dont know if this will work on x64.. and i even dont know if it will work with all resolutions because my monitor support just 1024x768..

i just hope there arent any bugs.

well i wont be making a square version because i wish to totally theme every little element and it will take to long and then ill be busy because of my exams. Maybe next year :)

Looking good, Zain :)

Thank u :)

Well dude.. to be very true .. that is the only reason i am making my own theme. Coz i hate them. They are so so bright and plasticy jelly kinda i hate em :p

Thank u so much :)

Now that is an awesome VS. But as someone mentioned before, it's more of an Aero tweak than a complete new visual style. Still I love it.

[WizardCM]

The great thing, you're following ideas and suggestions and making them into pieces of art. :D

This theme is looking good. It's like a more simplistic take on the standard theme.

[Zain Adeel]

yes u are right :)

but its made from the ground up..

aero was toooooo pixelated!!

When it's done, I'll check if it works on x64. If it's broken, I'd be more than happy to send you a copy of the x64 Aero theme so you can just replace the right resources. :D

Also, I'm interested to see what you're going to do with the Progress Bar. Would love it to be blue instead of green, and maybe use the same effect as the min/close buttons. :D

Nice. Was actually going to do something like this myself. I would use it just for the toned down shadows.

Thats ok, take as long as you like. If you rush it you won't make it as best you can. ;)

And if you don't get a chance to make it for x64, I'd be more than happy to manually port it, and share it if you let me. :p

[Zain Adeel]

all right.

the main stuff is done.

i just cant do the show desktop button yet..

it messes up ive tried 20 times.. ill do it later now.. here u go.. a peek at it.

[Tech Star]

Looks beautiful! This is what it should have been originally. :yes: Can't wait for release. :D
