Naked - [Noir] WB

Strip it... Strip it good

Published on April 29, 2009 By vStyler In Community

After seeing the popularity of transparent themes in the past few months I thought it was time for me to put my own version of the concept together. Hopefully I can do it justice, and provide a high quality Master skin with my own take on it.

The basic concept is a stripped down, very transparent, very fast WB that is perfect for screenshotting and showcasing wallpapers

There will be zero bevels or gradients, all the buttons will be flat and designed to be more like a touch screen interface.

It will have a white text and black text start menu substyle for use with light or dark wallpapers.

Heres a small screeny of what I have after a couple of days, I'll try to expose more as I strip it down.

I hope everyone can get Naked soon

I'm not getting the full clear window and I have a white line across the top. Yes everything is up to date.

I'll try it on my laptop and see if it does it.

ALMonty, you have to nix that navigation page. Go to "Organize" then "Layout" and uncheck the navigation pane. Don't know 'bout that white line, tho.

It made the white line disappear. In the screenshot John is showing the Navigation Pane and it's transparent.

You done yet? My Viagra ran out. I'm Naked and not looking too pretty.

Hehe, even with Viagra I'm not too pretty.... I think the spare tyre hanging over the top is ruining the effect.

However, I will have to get 'Naked' once I have a bit of spare cash on my debit card.

I must admit that at first I wasn't too keen on the idea of a totally flat WB without bevels, gradients, etc, but I am pleasantly surprised by the ongoing development and the finished product. Yup, it has turned out nicely and is a credit to your amazing ability, John, I like 'Naked' a lot.

In the screenshot John is showing the Navigation Pane and it's transparent.

Not in any of my screens it isn't. Nav panel doesnt support tranparency.

Thanks everyone

Purchased it before this, so is the dark one an extra purchase ?

The dark one will be a seperate skin, 'Naked - Noir'

I have to redo many if the elements from original PSD's re-cut and reimport, also after renaming the skin the vista version is gone, so in addition, the vista version is a from scratch project also. It will however be a bit cheaper as some elements I do not have to mod or change.

I can promise ya, I'm not getting rich, In fact the more I skin, the poorer I seem to get.

No worries, able and willing to pay a bit for quality. And I know, there is hard work involved in a WB skin nowadays.
