Updated Blue Vista Basic (v3.0) WB5/UIS2 skin designed for Windows XP users and also works well in Windows Vista.
- I know, I know... another vista themed skin, hopefully the name & skin style doesn't turn off too many people. ;-) I've been using this update for several weeks and thought it would be good enough to share with others.
Blue Vista Basic v3.0 Includes 5 startpanel substyles
- full & compact opaque/solid start panel
- full & compact transparent start panel
- FF4 (Preview Only) full start panel
Most of the visual elements in the skin were revamped and recolored to improve it's overall look & usability. This is a much more polished skin than v2.0.
Improvements/changes include: start panel, thinner Window frame style, improved vista min/max/close glow buttons, changed taskbar, quicklaunch & toolbar
buttons in dark blue crystal/inset emboss style, includes support for both horizontal & vertical taskbar.
Overall, a 100% improvement over the previous version of this skin. This skin also recolors very well using WB's custom color support - IMHO it also looks awesome in red, violet, purple, aquamarine, brown, etc.
* FYI - You do not need to delete the previous version of this skin to use this new version - it has been renamed and will not conflict with the previous version. Download & apply as you would with any other wb skin.
Wallpaper shown in preview is Cavan1's Black & Blue which is an excellent piece of artwork and a great match for this skin.
I have blue vista basic themed bootskins, logons, rainlendars, etc. to match this skin as well
