Blue/White Background

ExtremeDrinker · Post by **ExtremeDrinker** » Wed Aug 11, 2004 6:26 pm

I just got finished re-installing Windows and found a nice skin for XP that's blue and white...And it didn't come with a background so I threw one together. I hate working with a mouse, but I've not installed my tablet or any filters/plugins to do anything better.

Some parts are shaded, some parts are rough... Don't really like it :Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¨(

Yeah, I don't much care for the shading...But when you do a drop shadow on one section of a layer, it goes on all sections of the layer for some reason...I need to install some real plugins and my tablet.

But hey, I kind of dig it. It matches the XP skin I'm using quite nicely.

I'd like to see some orange.

That's not orange. That's more like beige...

or yellowish-brown/lightbrown? !

No, I meant along with the blue.

Okay..I made a blue and orange one...And I fixed the orange to look more...orange.

Also..I guess my vision must be failing me, but that looked perfectly orange on my screen...Now it looks a bit too reddish for my taste.

Anyone want the PSD file so they can fuck with it themselves?

The 2nd one's orange is perfect. The blue in the 1st is kind of purple, though. Periwinkle, really. I think if you darkened up the 1st one's blue, and added it to the 2nd one's orange, you would have some kickin' radness.

EDIT: Cool stuff to begin with, by the way.

I really just made it for myself to match the XP skin...Made the others because I've got nothing better to do for another week when I start teaching.

Here's my desktop:
