understand the idea with the colour spectrum

Would look sick if the taskbar and popup where left clean(no colour spectrum rainbow thingamabob). The windows on the other hand look nice.

Reminds me of bernadinho’s style. Extra points for referencing Pink Floyd :)

These captionbars are really cool. But your scrollbar seems to be on a lsd trip :-D

Looks great, Thomas, although I’m not so fond of that scrollbar.

Thanks everyone! :) This was a real fun setup to make.

The scrollbar might not be for everyone, but I really like it :p

Edit: I like to be consistent with the elements I use, but I can agree that I could have dropped the ‘popup’ and ‘music player’ text, and the stripes on the taskbar. Looking at it now I wish I’d used blank icons instead. I completly agree that the caption buttons could need a bit more love, but I was in a hurry when I made this, and I didn’t really think about it back then.

I personally think the scrollbar is badass. Awesome job, the caption buttons could have used a bit more attention but this is still great

this is nice. the padding on the caption bar seems a little weird to me and the icons dont fit that well. but other than that this is relly good

This feels a little 2005, and could use some more detailing for depth in buttons and edges and things. I’ll agree that the stripes don’t need to be in every window, I think they accomplished their job in just the caption bar. But you know how much I love the scrollbar. That’s new, and fun. Good stuffs, great to see you getting back into the swing of things.

this looks like it was fun to make :) the transparent windows look great in this instance, and i usually don’t like them. i also think the scrollbar is rad lol…as kody said, the caption buttons as well as the icons look like they need a little more love, and the ‘popup’ and ‘music player’ text could probably go, but otherwise this is classic thomax for sure.

I like this much, Tom. Not sure if you need the stripes on every element, but it still looks solid as is. I really love the black on that wall – it works well. The scollbars are a gas. I think I’d like to see a little more details in the interface and I’m not feeling the white based icons, but other then that its bangerang.

Nicely done, but, like others said, too much of the colors. it’s nice to have some contrast here and there to spice things up, but it shouldn’t be overused.

This is amazing for the excellent skin and the amazing theme (I’m a sucker for the Floyd).

Though I actually think that wall ruins this shot, it doesn’t fit in well color wise at all.

But still, a m a z i n g.

Wow, haven’t been in the custo scene for years, but it’s nice to have a peak and find some amazing work still flowing. Great work Thomax. Only real feedback I can think of is with the stripes, maybe just have 3 colors, and draw them from the actual wallpaper, might help the overall color theme. Either way mate, very very sexy.
