I don't like it....


No, serisouly, I don't.






That is: That one screenshot with that orange bar on the contactlist reminded me why I don't like the whole look of Office 2007...

The one with the blue bar looks better, although a bit too plain-ish.

It is like with everything, subtle things make stuff much nicer than right-in-your-face-stuff... (hence why I don't like Ev0 at all, sorry) I can't help keep staring at that orange bar (instead of looking at my contactlist), it is too distracting

Instead of making an option to get a blue or orange bar, maybe you can make an option (in a custom panel) where the user can actually choose their color with a real color picker panel, which includes the 'default Office 2007 orange' as a radio button. And make the very same color-picker panel for the toasts too, and also one for the chat window.

In that way, people can choose if they like the (orange or whatever) color bar  in the contactlist, and/or a full (orange or whatever) colored toast or only the title of the toast. etc. Heck they could even go for pink bar at the contactlist, full purple toast and green bar in the chatwindow

Anyways, despite I don't like that orange bar, I do like the look of the rest. Nice and subtle. This might become a skin I'm looking for

I like what it's looking like so far, personally. I love the final toast, and I also love how it can turn out very simple and subtle. You might want to fix those corners on the windows though, if you haven't done so already. I can't wait to try it out

any beta to try?? looks really nice

awesome, i cant wait for the first release dude!

Yeah, I will I have just woke up and I found out that last night I was a bit pissed and I printed everything I had open (12 documents with over 30 pages each!). I woke up to find a big ass pile of paper with code hahahaha

Yeah anyway back to the point.... The font is Calabri, size 11 usually... Thing is does all computers have calabri?

But they will be images so it shouldn't matter

i will use this =)

Everything about this skin just keeps getting better and better, Fantastic work so far, Napbree!  I cant wait to use it!

Wow I really am amazed on the feedback i mean even cookie likes it (ok errr most of it ).
At the moment if you change the colour using WLM's colour changer it will change the menu bar colour and the colour of the font.

I may be changing this though so It does everything but I havn't decided to myself yet.

I planned on bringing this out last night but I errr fell asleep ... So you're gonna have to wait

I've fixed the corners, and the main login screen I've smoothed it all out, so it looks much smoother.
I'm also going to be changing the login button, which is incidentally the submit button for the chat window, I don't think it looks to nice.

I only have a few things to go that is add some ribbon to the contact list and chat window but one that doesn't get stretched because it would look horrible
