VS Mockup - Worth finishing or not?

Greetings everyone, I've been working on an idea for a VS:

(to forestall any questions, it is inspired by xhanticeye's TiSkin, so it may bear some resemblance to it)

I've yet to decide whether to do it or not, but I think it'll be done as a WB skin.

(this is my first take on OS skinning, so I really don't know if some parts of the VS are doable, like those small ListView Headers, etc...)

Also, this is developed to fit my needs and there may be parts that may change completely or just won't change at all.

Please permit me some time to finish it, as I've never done this before :)

Would you use it? Do you like it? And if not, why?

I'm open to all kinds of contructive critique :)

Wow, I don't have doubts. This Vs is super, is great! I like it very much

and I hopo u and it and u rezlase it soon.

If u need to make Icons to make a guikit, ask to me.

#456686

Thank you, I'm glad you like it :)

I dunno about the guikit thing, but I do plan to include custom skins for Firefox and Photoshop.

Thanks for the icon offer though, I'll get back to you if needed :)

Great great. Please dont leave it!

#456698

Dont leave the project, it looks great! I would try some buttons for styler though... perhaps something similar to umaso's finder buttons. :)

A question and a request.

The question is, only as WB?? Not VS?

The request, con u make the apple logo in black?? I think is better!

#456706

Thanks for encouraging me Mr. Wallmaster :D

I had a look at umaso's buttons, but they're a bit too bold for my taste.

I'm trying to aim for understatement, a VS that is a bit taken back to be a possible "keeper"

The buttons on the Toolbar aren't final, just 'till I find something more fitting.

Expect something more in the next weeks ^_^

@d-lab:

Uh, my trial of StyleBuilder ran out, so I suppose it's up to someone else to port it over :)

All of the above shown is subject to change, so wait what I'll whip up :P

#456709

I rather like this :D

#456740

I suggest a poll, it's much cleaner than a lot of yes/no posts ;)

#456782

Oh, that would be overkill ;)

I just wanted to know if there's a general agreement over the idea's worthiness, hehe.

I am having a look at SkinStudio right now, and putting some things together for first tests.

Does anyone know of a borderless WB theme that I could use as a base?

#456787

moreover, there won't be any "no" post :D

#456788

awww ;)

#456792

Port it to mac please phil!

#456818

this looks pretty good i would use it if it's going to be a WB, you should change the close maximize & minimize buttons to the left though.

#456821

This VS will be realized! The next time you'll hear from philou will either be a release or a question about SkinStudio, though he says the latter is far more likely.

Keep posted, guys, but in the meantime...
