This is my first theme, its not a major technical achievement. Its just what I wanted, a yellow orange variation of the standard interface.



I think Its warmer and more friendly than the standard blue widgets, especially in November.
Still needs a bit of work.

Let me know what you think anyway, you can download it from
here. .
Cheers.

Not sure if I'll be using it, but I do like the color choice

It might work for a non-aqua theme color, but yellow Aqua just looks like... well put 1 and 1 together.

I get it! That's pretty funny! In fact the 2002 Honda Civic Si came in that exact same color and it's referred to on the Si forums as 'Urine Yellow'.

You could always call it Harvest Gold or Burnt Amber to give it a classy retro feel!

I love the U.S., but we need some time apart.

Might be nice if it were more amber looking.

Wouldn't use it unless it was an actual theme based on raw unpolished amber. Sort of like Aqua but a chunkier chiseled look.

Those cows won't know what hit 'em. They won't know what hit them even after it hits them, because they're cows.

You should drink more water.

If you don't mind 6MB .dlta files, (that could be less than 1MB as GUIkit), there's no reason to use GUIkit format unless you're going to use some of the ShapeShifter only features.

I'm personally done with using Aqua mods, but it's a good place to start for beginning themeing.
