K r o m e - WIP

cos you can never do too much marketing :P

er months of buggering around in C4D I think I might just be ready to try pull off a true Chrome windowblind.. You know. not just metallic looking gradients and highlights, but real, rendered, reflective materials and about as far away from Vista as I can possibly imagine going, at least regarding material composition.

 

Finished.

Thanks everyone :)

 

Ive decided I will do a substyle with more conventional taskbuttons as I cant seem to make my mind up and the initial ones wont look as good on a double taskbar.

 

Here are both, pretty much finalized.

I was reading through the posts, getting ready to offer my 2-cents about the taskbar buttons; but then you offered the second style of button--love those! \o/

I'm sitting on pins and needles over here. Your blind is coming along beautifully. Can't wait for this one or did I say that already. No matter...lookin' good dude. Second Mirsguy on the buttons. Adds nice contrast.

Hey monkeh man how about a tray dock???? Cool lookin docks :thumbsup:

I've changed the taskbar config quite significantly and decided to go with a flat toolbar\statusbar as WB just isn't capable of using images with horizontal gradients there and displaying them correctly.

 

Will post a big update soon.

 

Munkeh only showed a small preview of the docks, Ive seen em all so far and they are GREAT.

 

Pixel is also working on a kickass K r o m e Xion, it's going to be special too.

Updated screeny.. bout half way thu XP, hardest theme I've ever attempted I think. I wish WB did a better job anti-aliasing titlebar fonts.

 

I'll be uploading several wooden walls that I've made for this too.. I think they go particularly well with it. :D

I like the new taskbar best. The others didn't do the chrome effect justice; less is more. :thumbsup:
