Another WIP sub for pico gray revamped

BE WARNED, I CHANGE MY MIND A LOT SO THIS WILL LIKELY CHANGE

uses Segoe UI font

[01]

* different border and panel

i like 00 better, just seeing if there's any interest in something like this

[02]

* original panel
* rounded diagonal

no worries, i will have several luna-blue sub styles for those who like the gradient start panel

[03]

* early prototype for transparent skins. ill make the start panel, taskbar transparent as well when i finalize everything

(the main reason i went with the tab look was to support transparency)

[04]
* made diagonal less rounded to give the illusion of more whitespace
* start panel transparency

i will not go too crazy on transparency (it's not my thing). i'll provide 80% (shown) and 50% transparency

that is eye-catching, looks very nice
:iconnoespam:
thanks. do you use linux? your skins aren't the usual bling WB skins. they remind of the simple, clean skins on linux except i have to say i find yours to be sharper and cleaner. would love to see ports of these to linux.

can't wait for the black one

i haven't used linux lately. i'm impressed with recent GTK2 themes. linux may be in my future and i would definitely port my stuff over if i can find some good tutorials.

a preview of the black will likely be up in a few hours.

This is nice man. Looks and works really good from the little I've used it. You're getting much better at these! :)

I've always liked your WB skins. They're professional quality. If i could be so bold as to suggest a colour, I'd suggest a darker blue in addition to the XP-style blue. Top notch work.
:iconnextmario:
give me the hex or rgb value of blue you like

something around the 0-2-79 rgb area. or if that's too dark for your taste perhaps 8-36-107, which is the selection colour for win2k.
