Darkest Foundation

This being my Very First Windowblinds Theme; I am Proud to present Darkest Foundation.

After Experimenting with SkinStudio for the first time, and Seeing its Possibilities I decided on making a WindowBlinds theme packed with WB4.5 Fearutes.

After speaking with Jaidaksghost for a while, He eventually saw a beta of the Skin and explained that I needed Alpha Blending on a few things. Not Knowing what that was, I started teaching myself how to do it, and Eventually I got it correct, leaving us with a few nice WB4.5 Features.

Darkest Foundation Features:
- Animated Start Button
- Toolbar Icons
- Customized Throbber
- Progress Animations
- 2 Styles: Normal and Compact
- Transparent Startmenu!

I have been using this for a few weeks and have Corrected all known Bugs. But you can look forward to some future updates.

Well, make sure you have downloaded and installed WindowBlinds from [link]
Once you've installed and rebooted, you simply open the .wba and it will apply itself.

This is really cool man.

I'm a gonna use it. I'm kinda stuck on iSkin atm, as i love the Mac OS X theme. But I'll definitely give this one a try and see how it goes.

I love this one totally...except one thing; On the taskbar, each task button is taking up too much space. Is there any chance that there'll be a "smaller"/slimmer taskbar version in the future?

Josephs In reply to Chatbox [2005-05-04 02:15:05 +0000 UTC]

Everytime I duplicate the Style to make substyles it doubles the skin size. I dont plan on making future substyles because having a 5mb Windoblinds file is unappleasing to others, Sorry dude

Thanks for your comments hiakricloud. With your question, by Messengers and Alerts, are you refurring to the alert colour that flashes Blue on a Taskbar item? If so, It can be changed, but I personally don't find anything wrong with it.

hikaricloud [2005-04-12 08:19:27 +0000 UTC]

oh, did catch one thing...in messengers, the alert color isnt as noticable...is that able to be fixed through the program?

Simply frickin' amazing mate. I'm using it right now, and I'll tell you, I LOVE it! I got rid of windows blinds a long time ago mainly because lack of a good skin...I redownloaded it after I found this and have NOT been dissapointed...and it's AMAZING for your first one! Keep up the bloody good work!
