Artist's Comments

-Updated for WindowBlinds 6 and for Windows Vista users, before was only for Windows XP, now it works with both.

If you like the wallpaper you can get it from: [link]

Yes I know, another Vista skin is too much for some of you…
It is done because the first time I saw the original Vista skin with those excellent buttons/ highlights couldn't resist to make a variation of it and use it in everyday basis with my Windows XP, so here is a blue variation inspired by the official Microsoft Windows Vista skin.

A skinner can’t use other skins than his own, no matter how beautiful they are, after all, this is what the skinning is about, personalization and sharing, isn’t it? :)

Real nice! Square is good. Thanks for making it blue, way too many dark/black themes.

The only knock I have against this is the non-white background. I have syntax highlighting schemes that use this gray and other colors don't look right against this background. Nothing I can't fix on my side though.

Great job overall.

Wow, see i've been horribly sick of vista skins as well, but the blues you chose in this are just amazing. Great work!

Some noticeable, perhaps intended elements. This is constructive criticism and not meant to be negative:

disabled items on toolbars have a button outline while normal buttons don't. threw me off.

combo box dropdown buttons are white. maybe make them gray like scrollbar up/down buttons? or blue like normal buttons?

horizontal scrollbar has vertical gripper.

menus appear different between apllications. in notepad, they look like buttons, in explorer the menus are clean.

scrollbar buttons darker when hot, lighter when disabled, inconsistent with your active/inactive window state.

left most tab in tab groups is not highlighted like other active tabs.


there are points and maybe i'm being too subjective.
