Nice, complete shot. I can’t believe it’s W7. Loving the Mario emulator color mod too.
EDIT: updated the post with the full set of details
Myriad Base on Windows 7
________________________________________
Screenshot Info
This screenshot showcases my 2nd suite of skins titled Myriad Base. The finished skins can be found here or check out the Showcase on DeviantArt. Myriad Base is similar to my previous suite Myriad, which was featured on Lifehacker.
I was inspired to make an even more minimal set of skins discovering base by jg-visuals. I had already made the transition over to Windows 7, so decided to attempt to port base to Win7. It was the first time I’ve ventured into the VS realm, and the first time I’ve released icons of any sort, so it was a step up from creating the odd skin or two.
Suite Components
Win 7 Visual Style // base BETA for Win7 - To be Finalised
alternative for those on VISTA // the original base for Vista by jg-visuals
Wallpaper // Pink Starry Night my mod of starry night by ether
Icons // Myriad Base Icons BETA - To be Finalised
Winamp // Myriad Base Winamp
Rainmeter // Myriad Base Rainmeter
CAD // Myriad Base CAD – To Be Updated
Skincalc // Myriad Base SkinCalc
Colorpad // Myriad Base Colorpad
Codepad // Myriad Base Codepad
Shutoff // Myriad Base Shutoff
3rvx // Myriad Base 3rvx (mod of PiX) – To Be Released
Same Game // Myriad Base Samegame
NES Color Palette // Myriad Base NES Colors
Destroy Twitter (not displayed) // Myriad Base DestroyTwitter Theme
Rocketdock (not displayed) // Myriad Base Dock
Snake Game (not displayed) Myriad Base Snake
If there is a program that you’d like me to skin let me know and I might have a go. If you want to skin something for the Suite yourself then go ahead =)
Behind the Scenes – other little apps I have running in the background.
Hoekey // mapped winkey + (letter) to launch all my favourite little apps (skincalc, colorpad, codepad, notepad2, shutoff)
Desktop Media // creates a shortcut on the desktop whenever a USB drive / cd is inserted.
Magic Mail Monitor // checks my mail accounts
Wakoopa // tracks application usage
Resource hacker // couldn’t live without this program for changing icons and things
Things to do – After I finish the final versions of the Win7 VS & Icons
Media Player Classic Logo
IconPackager Theme
Snake Game Skin (mod of Myriad Snake)
Maxthon2 skin (50% finished)

I’m really happy to see such great advances in Windows 7 customization. I’m glad you put together a screenshot with all the pieces.
Why not upload all the components here?

Impressive, you’re the first one to come out with a fully developed suite for Windows 7. The real Custo community is always pushing us to a new direction and inspiration, I’m just polishing up an old suite that I announced one year ago before uploading it to PF soon. I’m just hoping it doesn’t come out as a half-assed job.
