Simplicity

Little Wip

Two styles, few colors, no glass, no transparency, no animations, no rounded edges, nothing of nothing...now i've thought and re-tought for this design or perhaps i'm tired for the work and in this period I don't want do anything?....mmm perhaps the last, anyway sometimes the simply ideas are the better

Sc4rfy,

      You've got to finish it dude. I'm no skinner but it looks to me like you have a promising start. Just relax into it. It'll come out as you plan with a little perspicacity. (is that a word?):rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I love the grey and red, and it's up to you, sc4rfy...I personally like rounded corners, but either way....might do something with the start button...just my taste, though...you do what you think you like the most.  :sun:

And thanks no matter what!

Looks nice , keeping on the simple side, I might lose the non-simple adornment in the start menu. I may also lighten up some of those areas of darker, almost black...red.

Also agree with the good doctor... START button.. needs... something.

Keep up the good work :sun:

Thanks for all your comment....doc i'll think someting for the start button...vstyler i agree with you for lighten up the darker red....the start menu...mmm i don't know, i luv the non-simple sphere ;-)

For the sphere in the start menu....maybe instead of the reflection that's there now, a reflection of the start button (whatever that turns out to be)....

Thanx, V.

Jim... I agree about the DX Theme's color and I really like the placement of it on the destop! :thumbsup: ... you might make a special Simlify DX for his Simplify WB...that'd be "Simply" special!  :sun:

I liked it with the shere..orb. Maybe if you muted the 'shininess' of the sphere. Like the new start button too.  :thumbsup:

But what do I know about it...just you have to be satisfied, mate!

I like the "orb" (He suddenly remembers a Woddy Allen movie) on the wallpaper much better than on the Start Panel. Otherwise the skin looks really nice. Both versions have their stuff points. I might recommend a mutes version like the first screen and a brighter version like the last, maybe as subs of the same skin pack.

The panel behind the orb...maybe take away the black border and blend it into the wall and round out the corners. I also think Hawkeye's suggestion works too with those as subs. Good work though. Can't wait to see the finishe blind:thumbsup:

Jim many thanks, i'll send  the blind when is almost finished :-)

Doc i've think many time about the two versions, at the end i've choose the second version(perhaps is a error..i don't know), one substyles for this skin is too much complicated and this skin is "simple" :-)
