WindowBlinds theme request

I use LiteStep as an explorer shell replacement (LiteStep is a Stardock product) and absolutely love the Austerity theme (default). I finally found some very nice matching icons to use with my custom edits to the theme files. I sarted working on a macthing Austerity skin for Trillian yesterday. I worked all day on it and got about 90% done, but I accidentally lost it today.. I had no idea that when I re-installed Trillian that it would overwrite the skin that I was using as a template

.

Anyways, I would *really* like to see someone make a matching WindowBlinds skin. After my last attempt with the skin maker, I know that I'd fail miserably. Is there anyone who would be willing to do this? Possibly another LiteStep user or Austerity fan? I would really appreciate it. It's an excellent skin.

Hi Kahenraz.

First off, LiteStep is not a Stardock product.

If you plan to upload your Austerity skin(s), you'll need written permission from the original author. The same applies to any icons you might use.

If you can do 90% of a Trillian skin in one day, WOW!, or maybe you need to slow down. Take your time, no need to rush.

It wasn't anything complicated, since very little of it was original. All I did was edit and mix elements already within Austerity, along with some of my favorite elements from the Tiny Cordillera skin, while using Whistler 3.5 as the base.

I don't know enough about coding to do a skin completely from scratch.

I gotcha....... That's a good way to start figuring out how a skin is put together. Just remember you can't distribute (upload) anything you make that way.

Yes, I know.

Is anyone interested in persuing my idea?
