ClearGem (WIP)

March 27, 2010 10:37:42 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

I was working on my first windowblind, Azzurro and my computer crashed and I lost all of my work. I finally got around to starting a new one, and I'm very happy with it so far.

This is still technically my first windowblind, so be patient because I'm really going to take my time with it. Click on the screenshot and zoom in to see the details I've put into the taskbar, start button, taskbar buttons, and start menu. Let me know what you think.


I will also release the dock seen in the screenshot. I'll make a 2D zoomer as well as a tabbed dock too.

 

UPDATED to show new dock, minor changes, new trillian skin, and some icons (some of a pack of 60+)

 

G3

 

 

Here's the icon pack (so far) that I'm making to go along with my theme. I'll make any requested icons too.

By the way, before anyone asks, the wall is "Glass Grass" by 1MrPaul1.

If you don't go with Azzurro, think about ClearG3m or ClearGem.

Just a thought...

I updated the screenshot in the OP to show some new things I've done. I liked the name ClearGem (Thanks NetaholicsAnonymous) so I renamed the post. The screenshot shows a newer version of the start menu as well as all of the changes in explorer parts. I also wanted to show everything together, including the dock. The wallpaper is Jakuta by Essorant.

Would anyone be willing to test this on Vista once it gets near completion? I don't have much further to go, and I would really appreciate it.

I've decided to make a bundle of icons to go with this theme. Here's a preview of what some of them look like. I will be making a large set, if there are any special requests, just let me know.

I've updated both the screenshot for the blind and also the icon pack so far that I'm working on to compliment the theme. The screenshot also shows one of the docks I'm making to go along with the blind. If you'd like an icon that isn't pictured, just let me know and I'll add it. By the way...........I still need someone to test on vista.....

Haha yeah sorry, I've been constantly replacing the screenshots in the OP to show changes. Each time I update, I seem to be using a different wallpaper. As for the graffiti wallpaper currently being used, I did not make it, so therefore it won't be included in the blind. However, here's the link for your convenience.
