OK, now I just know the theme world is buzzing with excitement just wondering what my next theme will be... Well maybe not... but either way, I've been working on a theme and I was wondering if I could get some of your feedback. Initial reactions to the theme in general... name suggestions etc...

I've made 3 shape varients, with different curves and different main colors, and then I have about 10 different colors. Choose your favorite varient and then your favorite color and then we'll see which I try and tackle first My personal favorite is the third variant with the dark graphite color.

P.S. When making comments, feel free to post the image of what you're talking about in the thread, in fact it's encouraged.

P.P.S. No, I am not calling it Aqua Extreme, I just happened to open that window. Thanks

The yellow one on the bottom looks hot!

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

the design is cool though I don't really like any of the variants.

Looks very nice to me. I'm interested in seeing how the rest of the elements turn out.

I can't tell if i like a theme just from the window title bar. However, from the first 3 images I can tell I already like the color scheme. Get us full mockups and we can nitpick better

Variant #3 would look great if the 'toolbar' was the grayish color. black text on a dark background just doesnt work

Looks like it's off to a great start. The top three look the best, I think the third is my favorite.

As for a title...I'd call it "calculator". Not seeing anything but the titlebar, it's hard to say, but for some odd reason it reminds me of a calculator. Nice though.

Sorry about that, I am hosting it off of my computer which I put to sleep occassionally I'll put it in a more permanent space in a bit.

Anyways, I am glad that there are people who like the theme I've gotten some reaction on AIM as well saying that they like the Tangerine variation so I think I'll try to start making the third variant and the tangerine variant soon. I'll post back on this thread if I make any progress and come up with some designs for the buttons and whatnot.

The 3rd Variant has by far the better titlebar design.

I think the theme would look nice if you designed the other color variants in the style of that titlebar.
