from WinCustomize Forums

Originally designed as a older Windows XP visual style in 2003 and in cooperation with her fan site, I am now remaking my Tribute theme for Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1. Will come in two versions, with and without the roses, etc. Anyone care to guess who this beautiful lady is?  :)

 

Tribute for Windowblinds

 

Releasing in September 2014! Comments welcome as always!

This is a nice one. I like the red & black combos. Definitely looking forward to this.

As for the beautiful lady...could she have the initials S.B.?

Hi,

first of all a real nice skin. damn its dark . Keep up the good artwork.

Some over critical but perhaps helpful comments:

do check the start menu with more items. Perhaps you may create a small 3px blended bottom and top border for inner application menu and make the right left gradients a bit smaller or wider ( it looks a bit to much contured in my opinion) .

The panel buttons do overlay the panel bg in an very unpleasant way. You might think a bit about the button border padding ( especially top and bottom. Might be a criteria if you want to use it on a small resolution.

Please Do understand that these comments were  over critical and that your theme is really great and nice looking. Perhaps you might take them into consideration.

Frieder,

 

I always check all my skins with more and less items on the start menu, and I like the item mouseover buttons the way they are. Thanks for your comments.
