I am new to this community and am not sure who to direct this to so, for everyone and anyone. I've searched for a good horror/occult skin everywhere and have come up short. I wanted to creat one myself but alas my incomeptence of photoshop, and windowblinds is really slowing me down.

Heres the thing. I have put up two links to loosely show my concept for the start menu. I would like for it to look more "real" than it does and have no idea how to go about it right now. I can'nt figure out the transparency just yet either.

What I would like is for someone/anyone to try this skin. I have seen alot of the work that goes up on this site and am sure there are plenty of capable people here (beautiful work on this site).

I would just like to see it in a more "grungy" manner than most of the skins here (maybe a grunge brush used for the shadowing or something, maybe a pumping heart for the start button (if possible)and for the window borders, four bones surrounding connected at the corners by joints.

Please, I know someone can do it. It would probably take me two years to finish myself. VERY sorry for the long post!!!
