Thanks for your answers and for the good news about some coming updates.About start button,I have got usually taskbar in upper position too.What to say?I don't like the start button in any case;it's just a question of taste(I agree with you about putting taskbar down;in that case the situation is worst).Always grateful.

Really great job.Just few questions:can you manage for opposite colours start menu(mostly black colour,smaller part grey)?About red part in shell,can you provide other colours(the red you used is very good,but I think some other colours can be matching as well;shining black,other kinds of red,some kinds of green or blue,dark or light..).I tried to manage about it with some shellstyle.dll from my archives(mostly Longhorn style)but they are too high(same size of grey toolbar;it goes too big).One suggestion:you have to do absolutely something about start button;the theme is too nice for that one(it seems the logo of a mobile company)and deserves something better.Please,let me know something.Always grateful.

I was made this style for 5 days, so you can consider it as quick work, and I don’t have a time at the moment to make some other, let’s say, more cosmetic corrections such as those which you were mentioned, but perhaps one day I will do that. Your suggestion for other colors in the shell was one of the things which I was planned, and since I don’t need much time for that part you can count at least on that update soon. As for the colors in the start menu I can tell you that my original idea was been bright plastic style with all bright elements (including start panel), so that’s the reason why this combinations. I believe that your suggestion about reversing colors in the start panel could be also very nice solution, but this is something what I didn’t want to make this time. The trick for the start button is in taskbar. Unfortunately, it is possible to make only one start button for all taskbar positions (up, down, left, right). If you put the taskbar up, like I do, you will have completely different picture about start button, and whole panel… Basically this means that I was using upper position of the taskbar as default, so that’s the reason why that shape and look! I know that most of the people are using windows default position for the task bar (which means down), and in that variation this combination doesn’t look perfect but I think that overall is satisfying!

At last, you’ll admit that this is not regular style just like any other! This is Futura, and as that one, it needs this kind of differences… ;)

Take care :)
