Hello WC and thanks for stopping by my page. Look forward to more submissions in the near future.
XP, Vista and Win 7
Published on March 22, 2010 By vStyler In WinCustomize Talk

k, so the concept was to get as far away from the last theme I did as possible and still be able to skin Win 7 completely and correctly.

 

I also wanted to make a red and black theme that took advantage of the dramatic contrasts that this color combo can achieve.

 

Devilish, menacing, provokative, I dunno.. thats what is running through my head as I throw this PS mockup together.

 

I suppose I will be doing a light and dark windows version as I dont see anyway around it...

 

...so this one may take a while to complete but here it is in it early.. fluid stage.

 

Oh and I may just keep the small branding text... cos I know would approve 

 

will post updates as they are formulated.

Lookin good Jim, only thing I would change is the text color to something almost white,  matching the WB.

The text color I use over all the red sections is.... # C1B7B7 ,  black was just not cutting it from a usability standpoint.

As far as Harley uploading the cursor, was just a little experiment between us, I do like to wait till the WB is finished before all matching skins are posted.

Here is the display properties in XP, after some experimentation I was able to get a neat sorta glowey reflection going on the active tabs that I quite like.

 

Again... titlebuttons are from a previous theme, have not been started yet.

RND, I think the "stamped" text (black) looks too "hard".  Especially on that folder drop window.  Maybe too much inner shadow / and too much bevel.  Just my 2 pennies.
