I think it looks nice so far. You seem to understand the looknfeel files well :)

thanks guys. the graphics are taken directly from the Kore window decoration. its GPL'ed, and im not all that sure how it works with graphics. i just liked the theme so much i thought it would make an awesome cegui skin. it turned out looking exactly like the original Kore theme, which is really cool. cegui's looknfeel system is very awesome. i still have a lot of looknfeel stuff to write to complete it.

the problem now, is that while working on this, i found some ways (as i mentioned in a previous post) of improving the ceimageset editor, and id like to make those changes, but id also like to keep working on this skin!

so, im torn now between completing the skin, or working on the tool stuff. so many choices, so little time!

again, thanks for the kind words -- but the real thanks should go to the graphic designer that came up with the original graphics, this is all his "Kore" content --

http://www.kde-look.org/usermanager/search.php?username=code2&action=contents

as you can see, its really slick stuff!

im probably going to eventually email him and make sure he doesnt mind what im doing. he of course will get full credit for his work.

I don't like the theme, it reminds me too much the aero glass theme from windows vista, and I think it looks too "fat". But it's a personal opinion.

btw: the link to your picture seems broken.

hehe, I like your version more then the original :) probably because of the gradient transparent background color you have done.

Nice skin indeed. Any chance of it being posted to skins/themes so we can use it soon? Thx!

Ah too bad. We need some cool skins. Are you able to post what's done so far as a skin?

BTW, what's cegui studio?

Thx
