After seeing Tiggz' gorgeous Icon set I felt compelled to come up with a Windowblind that would complement it perfectly. I set out 2 months ago to the day and I am pleased to finally release the WB to the public for use and consideration.

I feel that I have gone out on a limb somewhat with this entry, but having done my share of sleek, black and blue skins in the past , I wanted to attempt something really outside the box.

I hope sincerely that my work can be judged on merit and not trend. The challenge was emulating a 3d material within a 2d genre, I think after many many days of trial and error and using all of my knowledge and tools at my disposal that I have hopefully succeeded in providing a 'hold in your hand' 3D look to the theme.

My vision for the theme was to have smooth, simplistic styling, matched with bold realistic materials, easy enough for a child to wrap themselves around but usable and professional enough in its design for the most demanding power user.

Special attention has also been given to providing, imo, the most flawless theme I have ever produced.

My team at Maxstyles has generously commited themselves to providing a vast suite of matching skins that will appear in the galleries over the next several days, They will include: Several matching wallpapers, a full DX theme, 3 DX widgets including a clock and weather \ calender, Two sets of OD docks, CursorXP, 2 Xions, Winamp classic, Rainy , RightClick, bootskin, logon and Sysmetrix skins.

All credits are given in my screenshot so all that is left to say is good luck to everyone who has entered this wonderful contest and I hope you enjoy......... Plastic Fantastic !..........

***UPDATE***......... I have added 3 extra Advanced HSL color substyles, please understand that the recoloring process is not an exact science yet and I added them basically as a courtesy as some folks don't like red. Red is still the main color. *The recoloring does not affect certain areas of the Windowblind.*

You can get the matching skins by searching the galleries here for Plastic Fantastic or you can download them all conveniently in one zip from my site @ [link]
