[Preview] Skin (No Name Yet) by Chunk1993 on 05-08-2008 at 08:25 PM

[Image: mock.png]
This is a mock up of the skin im working on.
It has no name as of yet, so suggestions would be nice!
Tell me what you like & don't like so far! (Y)

I don't like that it has too much white space. Perhaps you could put something to fit in more nice.

I love it, but if you're going to keep the white design, make sure the colourization works with only the areas that are currently green in that mock, and that are bright colours ;)

The green on white looks ugly imho, but the min,max,close buttons are nice.
Colourizable?

Well, the green will be colorizable.
Thanks for feedback so far! :)

I really like the look of this skin. Hopefully it will be out soon:P

RE: [Preview] Skin (No Name Yet) by Spunky on 05-08-2008 at 09:33 PM

It's nice and simple. I like it (as long as there are options which buttons to show/hide and you can change the alignment of the toolbars)

RE: [Preview] Skin (No Name Yet) by Th3rmal on 05-08-2008 at 09:33 PM

IMO, its a bit bland and i think the fluro green should be changed at least in the screenie...

If I figure out how to do the options panel, I will. How hard can it be *-)

i think the white should look a bit.. less flat

RE: [Preview] Skin (No Name Yet) by Nagamasa on 05-08-2008 at 10:35 PM

I like simplicity, but that's too simple...and yeah I agree that that green isn't the best.

agreed would be nice if it looked more plasticy

I think it needs a bit of tone in the white areas just to define it a bit more.

Green is a good idea, but i think the green you have picked is a bit much. Perhaps like a lime color (not intense lime of course :P) would be a better choice, I dunno thats just my opinion anyway.

Looking forward to seeing some progress on this skin.

Change the icons to a more simplistic style, instead of the current 3D style, and then (Y)

RE: [Preview] Skin (No Name Yet) by blessedguy on 05-09-2008 at 04:37 PM

Wow... It's too... too plain!
and that flashy green almost blinded me! =0

still like everything else!! congrats!
just change that color to some less flashy green, with any effect... plain colors seem to be "made by paint"... and like willz said:

Yeah...

It does look great! Except for those 2 details...

Good luck! ;)
