Nooot bad guys...but I think you've missed the idea behind the design.

Any shiny green part you see is part of the muted green parts BEHIND the grey glass.They are wrapped around from behind to the front.(not just doodad decorations stuck on)

I'll send you both what I have done on the WB so far so you can have a clearer picture of what it looks like.(and anybody else thats working on something)

Still,the psd was uploaded to use as you choose so you do what looks good to you.  

New button colors for more Earthy look...glyphs might have to go...they overlap the edgesof smaller buttons...too bad...I liked them.

shellstyle plant psd is in the graphics section if anyone needs it.  

It's gonna be a good day. I open my eyes and in my inbox is a gift from Sir I.R. This skin is going to bend all the rules.  :HOT: 

I was TRYING to bend less rules...but I suck at that...its still subtle.(for me)  I'll send ya a better one once I lick this taskbar...and its definately taskbar hell so far.

If I could get taskbar buttons to act the same as the text background...it would be simple.So of course they dont,so it aint.   :LOL: 

Email me exactly what your trying to do and I am sure I'll have a way to make it work. I have been expermienting with some pretty crazy things over here. All fail so far but I have been able to do things you never thought possible.  :LOL: 

Updated the plant psd with flower and bug.  

Nice, nice, nice.

yep, now that psd little buggy! :HOT: :CONGRAT:

I really don't want to be so direct and tell you that I can't wait for this to be released, but: "I can't wait for this to be released!!!!" :HOT:

trying to update it with more bugs but upload 1 wont let me.  

Start menu and taskbar lookey look.A triple taskbar without repeat or stretch...neato. :HOT: 

That taskbar rocks. Nice.

Thanks Mess...the psd for it is in the graphics section now if needed.  

that taskbar and startpane rocks! awesome :CONGRAT:

I will probably need to update mine. Jumped the gun...impatient me...lol.

Are you taking advantage of the WB layers feature?

Not yet Neil...I'm still building XP in 5 and will move into 6 when I begin the Vista sub.I still dont know what blend modes are available on the layers yet.I'm looking forward to trying them out tho.

Would be incredible if they could actually be z leveled to ride on top of icons and text. :HOT: 

This is one heck of a theme... look forward to it being finished.

nice skin! Will there be a Vista substyle?

(Reminds me of a lime...)

Looks great IR. I'm not especially fond of the flower and the bug, But I'll wait to see how the whole thing turns out.

Awesome :HOT:

reworked on the meters. hope you like them Mike

Looks like the green area on the right needs to go up a pixel or two...

Messiah is correct...plus,you might shorten up the right side with the text(wasted space)and the text shadow is pretty strong.
Bottom left shiny part isnt needed.(misaligned and not connected to the back)

The rest is fine as sunshine.  

Nice meters!

yeah pretty nice..maybe little too dark that textshadow..
