First of all, I LOVE this skin!

Very smooth graphics work. Nice soft corners

Only 2 "problem" areas that I have discovered and I've prepared a picture to explain:

I would also suggest skinning the search and navigation icons, but that's optional. Also the IE7 icons aren't skinned (I know they are a pain in the ass......)

 

Fantastic skinning, Rob!

Thanks  Robbie Boy it looks great here in Vista, FF3 looks great in it, I love the way the taskbar floats at the bottom of the screen and transparency has been used so as not to be intrusive. Sure is a winner, now to see if I can break it. Oh forgot the selected icon FX on the desktop is really nice touch the way it is magnified transparently almost.

 As for FF3, Iuse Firefox 3 all the time so it had to work well not just IE7 but FF3 too.....

Not shure if it works in IE8....

P.S. all you testers out there i just sent you the new WB file with about 20 changes in it......Hope you like the changes..

All seems fine in IE8, see shot with accelerators turned on.

The menu problem "shadow sliver" is fixed and menu background seems tad darker too, text now black off start panel menus too.

Yes the second file.

ie8 menubars are their own very pale blue not your gray. Could be worse though lots of blinds set these bars treble width so if all 5 shown lot of real estate lost. I imagine it is all hard coded in too.

IE8 menus skinned except the favorites one mouseover is a default pale blue unlike the other menus that go with your cyan color as set.

That's the text you asked about in the mail, Rob?

Good news is: it's fine on IE7

Bad news: I don't know how to fix it!

 

This is a great skin, man........time to upload and share it with the others!

I can't find any other problems Opera 8.5 skins itself so it's OK.

I think I read in an article IE8 was to be hard coded more, may have been in one of Frogboys W7 articles.

Excellent blind great for working to and for showing off too.
