THIS SKIN IS OFFICIALLY OPEN SOURCE. RIP IT/MOD IT or whatever. I think I achieved my goal of making a clean, minimal skin using translucency. I will not be doing any more updates to the WB version. All of my future skins will be msstyles only.

This project was previously known as the Worst Damn Vista Skin Ever (WDVSE). Thanks to feedback from fellow deviants it's of decent enough quality to be branched from the original thread [link]

This is an OPEN (FREE) ART project, and I will release it as open source to the public AFTER the official release. This is a BETA release. I'd lke to it to be stable before anyone rips, mods or whatever with it. I don't think it will take too long.

If you find a bug, please report it here. I will update this thread with any fixes and branch to a new submission when I officially release it.

O YEAH, thanks to everyone who gave me feedback! All my future projects will be community driven.

And now I present a simple, minimalistic, and of course the worst damn vista skin ever ... aero minimal


next project will take on all these Apple interfaces with buttons on the wrong side, apple start icons, etc. this is Windows! The worst damn apple skin ever is coming --- "aero milk".

[8/27]

* fixed horizontal scrollbar left gray area
+ added a Blue round style (didn't really want to do round corners, but I've had several requests for it, should I do others?)
* changed hilite on task bar to be a little more opaque, some titles couldn't be read depending on wallpaper (not as pretty but functional)
* logoff/shutdown button hilites consistent with taskbar

[8/28]

* DRASTICALLY improved Luna Blue with rounded corners! Reduced the borders by 3px on L, R, B for this substyle. Added shadows to this substyle. Active window has slightly more shadow depth to make it stand out. Even the close button has shadow now. Expect the other sub-styles to follow suit when I find time.
* fixed taskbar quick launch hover buttons
+ skinned taskbar flash button (was opaque orange)

* Changed white to rounded corners, improved shadowing. Close button viewable when overlaying white now.

* fixed stupid sliders, they looked good in skin studio but not in windows
