Aqua-Soft ForumsWow, Xero... that's a CRAZY huge number of substyles. I can't wait to see this. Great work.
[WIP] Mac OS X Tiger by Xero
lookin' great man, i've been using ur brushed theme since i found it from wincustomize.
btw, i know it's kinda late, but could u include a brushed version with transparent(0-pixel) borders?
i'd love to see that, thx a lot.
WB can't have 0 pixels. Also Brushed doesn't have 0 pixels 
It has a frame, and it's quite distinct.
And yes, there is a very big list of substyles, the more I do the less time it takes for the next. Once I release RC1 to the testers I will get to work on RC2 which will included the Brushed them and then it's gold and I will release it to the public.
Looks really good thus far....thanks xero

Looking *great* so far Xero, but I'm sorry to say that having 1px borders is an issue for me, because I'm a terribly petty person 
. Is there any possibility at all of the Aqua and Platinum substyles having a psuedo-0px border like those seen in other WB Themes?
Show me a theme that actually has 0 pixel boarders thats a WB theme. Most have 1 pixel but transparent. I won't be doing that because it makes the theme look messed when using a shadow app.
Will the OK, cancel... buttons glow.
If not please make it glow. You made the best Panther Skin. So make the best tiger skin.
There won't be any glowing/pulsing buttons. Mainly because you cannot get it to perform the way it does on a Mac. Not to mention animation of the buttons isn't very well made and it twiches a lot. Panther didn't have any, neither will this. In the long run you will like me for not doing it

all of my windowblinds themes have 0px borders around the sides... if doesnt make it look funky if you set shadows to offset for rounded windows.....
Here's a screenshot of my borderless version of ur Brushed Panther BETA I've been using. I basically just open the border bitmap files in paint and copy and paste transparent(pink) pixels onto the borders to make them entirely transparent.
Shadows don't look good when you round them off and use a square window. I will be keeping the 1 pixel boarder. People like to be able to resize their windows with ease. And the average person is to stupid to resize at the titlebar. So if you want 0 pixel, your going to have to modify the theme, but keep in mind no releases without my permission, you can do whatever the hell you want with it for yourself, but nothing released.

thats why you leave the bottom window @ 1 px and the sides at 0 px... and if you are using the right shadow in win fx it looks exactly the way its supposed to
I know for this specifc board 0 pixels would be fine and no one would have a problem with it. But when your looking at over 50,000 people downloading and using this theme you gotta start to think about those who haven't a clue what 0 pixels are and will freak out when they can't resize their windows from the sides. I'm sure there will be mod's of this theme to make it more accurate. I'm simply trying to make Windows look like a mac as closely as it can but still remain Windows. So I'm not aiming for 1:1 accuracy. Hence smaller fonts, hence no spotlight, ect.
Edit**
RC1 released to testers.
I think what you're doing right now is great and doesn't need any additional modification, especially with the many different substyles you're providing along with the main style. I can't wait until RC1!!!
Hmm, spoke too soon. Thanks Steve!
Xero, I respect your decision. Looks like I'll have to learn some SS4 basics (Actually come to think of it, would you allow permission to such a mod?)
If you made it and made it good, not a half-assed job. Sent me it allowed me to overlook it and if it meets my standards yes I would allow it, also depending on how much is changed from the original will change how much credit is due to whoever mod's it.
Stupid question, but when applying a new updated theme do you just simply apply it or do you have to remove the current theme from your theme folder or do you have to unload WindowBlinds then load and apply the new theme? I ran into what I think were issues when applying the new updated theme over the existing them with the same name since I didn't see any new instant changes in the theme. But when I tried to unload it and reload it, it wouldn't reload, regardless of whether or not I deleted the folder or not. This is my first time beta testing a theme. Thanks in advance.
Thats fine, you have to remove the old theme then install the new theme. Make sure the folder is gone. It won't ruin anything if you don't but sometimes the theme won't load properly.
Windowblinds.

Thanks Steve!! That did the trick!
Well I have been using the RC1 and have found no problems as yet, and suspect I won't find any.
The only thing I would personally like is a a substyle for a more generous border (3 pixels or however many are on Kols tiger). Why you ask?
Well as a CG artist, I use Newtek Lightwave, and it kinda doesn't really like the 0 pixel or 1 pixel borders very much. No real biggie though, I love this tiger more than any other I've found!
Cheers!
See, and he is a perfect example of why there are boarders. The brushed theme has a frame of 6 pixels wide, so that will be something for you
Seems very nice, cant wait to try. I see all of these people reporting problems with RC1, but I see no place to download it. Are they all testers? Anyone way I could become one?
Xero i'm still using your panther WB theme (slightly modded by myself) because it's up to now the best panther theme by my opinion.. therefor.. the screenshots of this tiger looks VERY sweet and i'm waiting for this theme to be released.. woho.. this looks sooo promising..
