[project] Graphite Milk

I was goin through my skins and i thought, i love graphite, but i love milk too, so how about i combine them? Well i decided to start on it, i wont really release it untill its actually finished and I get permissions from the files I used but you can get a sneak preview of what im going for. Also, if anyone wants to join in, they are welcome to. I'm just a web programmer and haven't really started getting into editing the xp gui until now and I could use some points here and there on doing things and get some ideas on others. Anyways here are some screenshots of what I got done so far, what you think?

This is the desktop i made the mac bar ( i used the milk skin gradiant tho ), i used the milk orbtial thingy background and made some icons to go on them, and im not sure if im going to make a dock background, if i do, i have no ideas right now, and im still wondering on the task bar...

Here is what the finder drop downs looks like, most of the menus have no use, dunno, if i will make them into use or just leave them there, or get rid of em. I also have to change the background of the menus to a more milky look than just a striped panther look.

I haven't decided on the colors yet, they look fine to me on my screen but others may not like the list being that dark and text being black, i guess thats a choice thing, i dunno what ima do with that tho, and as u see the scroll bars and drop downs have yet to be skinned.

This is about done i just need to figure out and do the tabs, maybe work on the bookmarks, and again work on scrollbars.

o and sorry if this is in the wrong forum :cry:

Looks nice, might want to change the glyphs and/or make the toolbar more OS X like (rounded rectangles) Otherwise, looking forward to this!

#168415

is the "macbar" a skin for objectbar, or a totally different program?

BTW, your apple on the macbar looks a little too big.

#168418

no its a whole shell, its called LiteStep....explorer.exe is replaced with this. Its a custom taskbar and everything. So basicly when it starts windows, it starts litestep and the skin instead of explorer.exe. Only time you access explorer is if you access the like file system ( c:\ ..etc ) other wise you wont see it if u use finder emulators. I never thought the apple looked that big...

And yeah i think i may add the rectangle thing...
