Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year...

Well got back to working on the phOS WindowBlind skin. You know I never realized how many graphical elements were needed for a WindowBlind to work, let's just say there are lots. All the different states of buttons, animations etc. it's mind blowing. I think I've opened up SkinStudio quite a few times and it is just confusing sometimes. Once I have the "concept" done and ready for skinning then I'll break out skinstudio and sit down and really try to figure it out. I'm having a great time working on phOS so far and I'm thinking it's coming out pretty darn cool. I just hope I can get it skinned so that Windows looks as good with a truely working skin.

I don't know how some of these really talented guys can whip these things out so fast, just the concept alone and the creation of all the images for all the different states are taking forever. But I figure the length of time it takes for such things is worth it in the end if it gets implamented and designed the right way.

Well I've updated the phOS concept that I have on my WC site Link. Check'er out and give any feedback you wish.

On a personal note, the family and I went to Georgia for Christmas to visit family and then took a drive over to Nashville, TN. Man is that a pretty ride, rolling hills lots of trees and change of color. Man so different from tabletop Florida. We're thinking of relocating to Tennessee to get away from the soaring costs down here. From what we saw the two days we were there, we like it. Looked at some houses and checked out some of the scenery. It'll be nice to have a change of season again

Well till next time... Take care...

experience and practice, practice, practice (just guessing, I'm not allowed to whip anything out)
