Making my own Mac Calculator (first pics!)

Hey everyone,

I know a little visual basic so i decided to make my own mac style calculator from scratch. Here are my first attempts (not finished at all obviously)

yep. make those buttons nice ;)

... and brushed metal?.... why not let it be themed by the OS, brushed metal is a lil old school.

otherwise lookin good

-better than i could ever do. I cant program for crap, which is why im a designer/skinner/themer :P ... Remember Mac OSX dashboard has a calculator... so, u may wish to think about how yours is going to be unique...

Looks very nice, where can I get it?

Is the skin in the app's resource ?

Will it be skinnable? So that one can put it's own skin (brushed metal, aqua, leopard, quick look, etc...)

It isn't at the moment but that is a good idea... I will look into it.

I have just made it smaller and changed the title font a little as well ;)
