Frameworks for GUI widgets gotta have a look right? You can't have a graphical user interface without graphics! So ofcourse I've got to have a skin for this thing. And I don't want it to be some silly looking skin like EYLO's garish blue, Microsoft's Windows Vista with its pointless transparencies, or, god forbid, Tonka's Microsoft's MyFirstOS XP, I want it to be a well designed GUI that's functional but not distracting.
So what I've come up with, atleast for how the panels will look, is this:
I'm also considering another design that's similar but without any special gradients or anything, just flat white/grey, or white/black with a subtle transparency, reminiscent of Apple's pro apps. I've enlisted Brian's help in coming up with a proper skin for the framework, so I probably won't be using the one above as is, but who knows.
