[REQUEST] Ubuntu Blind

I was wondering if one of our talented Windowblinds artists could possibly make a ubuntu blind mimicking the desktop appearance. I would be cool to have one I think, especially when used in combination with OD and Virtual Desktops.

Thanks,
Angel

You can download the visual style here. I believe skinstudio can do some magic to turn that in to a windowblinds skin ;)

Thanks Jouketje but I wouldn't even know where to begin skin studio confuses me to death I have opened and closed it numerous times due to just being overwhelmed by trying to figure it out...lol.

You don't have to do ANYTHING. Just download the visual style, double click the msstyles icon in the folder that you downloaded it to, and skinstudio will just convert it on it's own. It will then show up in your WB config window....... EASY!!

Have Fun!! B[]

I just tried it...... using it now. It took a few seconds to download, I then double clicked the "human.msstyle" icon and was told that skinstudio would now convert it to WB format. I clicked OK and a few seconds later WB asked me if I wanted to apply the new skin. I clicked OK again. Skin applied, I then opened the WB config window and clicked on "Rebuild List" from the skin options, and it then showed in my list with all the different colors available too.

Can't get much easier than that!

The only thing about converted msstyles is that quite a few parts of the WB skin remain unskinned, like the shutdown/logoff dialogs for instance.
