Description Please READ THE DESCRIPTION FIRST!!!
I saw the new interface of win8. Then I searched a visual style that match the Omnimo of Fediafedia.. Unluckily, I couldn't find. So I decided to create my own visualstyle.. And ofcourse I want to share this vs for you too.. For now, you can't download it. It's about 80% completed.. Still in progress..

Comments/Suggestions are welcome.

how about a circled upward arrow for the tray?
and hopefully a very clear taskbar (maybe with the option to have no blur...)

It's impossible to remove 100% the blur. I can do that but you can only use my wallpaper that I integrated with the vs. And the second problem is you can only use it on 1920x1080 screen resolution

i see. that's definetely a problem since i use a 1280x800 res.
maybe one day you could make a tutorial to teach how to integrate image in taskbar.
thanks

lol Thanks bro! Now it's 90% in progress and planning to change the preview maybe tomorrow or within 2days. No release date yet.

This are the changes/improvements so far;
improved gradients on window background, improve indicator on taskbar, perfect window shadow, new style on scrollbar and improved the other images & codes.

Personally I dont like the gradient window colour but aside from that I love this Might be cool to have the whole top bit of the window coloured but thats just me Looks great though.

Thanks! Nice idea! I'll try it.

I mean it might look terrible, and I do like the colored banner thing so I dunno.

I think it's the window background that Im least sure about. Things like this concept (see link below) look great because of the simplicity, I just think it might look better with a plain white background like seen here

Again, just a thought, feel free to ignore

RaymonVisual In reply to jTc42 [2011-06-04 15:01:38 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I know what you mean. The nice idea that i'm talking about is to put some color on top window instead of only white.
With this vs, if you like white background on window, don't replace the explorerframe.dll. If you replace the explorerframe.dll, it will replace the white color into gradient color like in the ss.
Even if you didn't replace the explorerframe.dll, the back/forward button will be the same like in the screenshot. That's the magic of "theme resource changer" hehe

OH also, if you get time, might be worth making the progress bar graphic a flat color, probably green. The glowing glassy thing doesnt fit so well

jTc42 In reply to RaymonVisual [2011-06-04 15:15:47 +0000 UTC]

Impressive! I mean you COULD always try and make it so that the window border follows whatever color you have aero set to? To be honest Im inclined to say leave it as it is for now, as long as people have the option to leave the window gradient out but keep the fancy new buttons. (Yes, I say that because I just wanna get my hands on it )

If you wanna see an example of the colored window idea, check out MetroTwit. Great example

Just thought it may be a useful resource! Make it your own of course, but.... borrowing... some design aspects from MetroTwit makes sense since they seem to have nailed the Metro interface
