<div dir="ltr">I'm not entirely sure about the direction Kin and Kith are taking, especially with the whole OSX smackdown - so I'm trying something new with the themes, posting mockups of the new directions the theme could go flailing into. When I hit something half-decent, I'm going to develop it similarly to Kith/Kin, but I'd like to know I'm getting warmer first. If you post links to other themes, I'll try to incorperate what you like, wether I personally like it or not!<br>

I've also switched to gray for the window contents.</div>
</blockquote><div><br>It's looking very nice. The glowy-rim effect on the windows is a nice touch and is a great direction to take. The only suggestion I have at this point is to make sure there's enough contrast on the close, etc. buttons. On my laptop, they can be somewhat hard to see at certain angles.<br>
