sweet theme man, my only quandry is the minimise, maximise close button (seems abit small to me) and the text colour of the windows in the start bar is a little pale in comparison. I would also like to see a bluish verison of this if you have one.
great job.

Really love this one, however I'm experiencing some troubles with text on buttons: often the last letter is just 'dropped'. Anything you can do about that?

Gorgeous as always. Though I find the min, max, and close buttons to cut into the fluidity of the rest of the theme. While the rest of it is smooth, those buttons are sunken into the box which doesnt bind the elements well. I also think it would bring everything together if the dark line was removed from the slider. Aside from that, the theme is phenominal. I wish you would port your themes over to QT so those of us that run Linux, KDE to be more specific would benefit. There is nothing like this on Linux, not even close.
Excellent job kol

very nice vs, any chance of telling me how you faded that compact start menu screenshot into the background?, i have been trying to work out how to do that in photoshop for ages.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Use a big soft round brush in photoshop with the eraser tool adjust the strength down to around 8 or 10 make several passes as always play with the settings for your own taste
hold down shift while erasing to get a straight line.
Hope this helps
