Venom - WIP

XP, Vista and Win 7

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 X-( 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 :snowman: would approve  ;)

 

will post updates as they are formulated.

I think you're having a clarity/contrast problem with the red font, Jim.... to my ancient eyes, it's really hard to read. Otherwise lookin' good!

Lookin good Jim, as far as the blue goes, I'll leave that up to you, but there isnt anything but red and dark in the theme, all mousovers are red glows.

 

Here is a short vid showing the titlebar buttons that I've spent bloody ages on. Hopefully it posts correctly, I think I'll start posting more vids like this now that I have a PC that can handle it.

Ok, here is now.  I may need to lose the net in/out due to script errors when run with DX 4.0. No more blue.

Judged from the SS only, I (so far) like this WB -alot-.
(Had a bit of fun too, and made a RightClick from the SS - for personal use)

Although I hate to admit it.....
I might just have to consider the possibility that I may have to think about possibly consider thinking about buying it... -maybe-

Gotta touch up the top highlight since it's a fadeout to the edges and the margins are making it look cut, but pretty happy with the way these turned out so far.  Working on tabbed versions as well.
