Jim, this'll make a very elegant blind... I really like it, and I think you'll finish it, because face it, you can!  :thumbsup:

Go for it, Jim!

from the looks of it so far, it would be a shame not to finish.

I'll keep my fingers crossed, a new 'wood' blind would be so nice!!!

Be serious,Jim!!the work is fine,you just have to finish it!!That's all!!And,hopefully,including an XP substyle(I did already 4 BootSkins for it!!).

GO AHEAD!!!

Seriously, bro, when I started skinning again I noticed this design and judging by it's creativity and eye appeal, I figured it was already a WB. It's really way too good not to finish, Jim. Anyone who knows me in the "real" world knows if it wasn't something I liked I wouldn't tell you it was...but this truly is!. If I can help in any way (and that goes for ANYONE on this site) please don't hesitate to let me know. I'd love to see this design completed and shared with the users...  :)

Looking excellent Jim and a great addition to your DX skins and the Suite.  5* :thumbsup:

I wonder how you will do this from now on, DX or WB first, hmmmm.  :-"

With some of the great graphics you have come up with for your stand alone DX Themes I see some very interesting desktops in 2011.  :sun:

Guys, thanks for the confidence building comments!  :grin:

 I will surely do my best to deliver a nice WB. This is only a mock up, I haven't actually started the blind yet.   :blush:

I'm extremely impressed :w00t:  

I've seen your other wood works and was thinking why not a WB.

But this is very amazing sneak of what to come. You really have it in you to nail it, :w00t:

Just finished telling you I was using the wood wallpaper. Glad to see you are doing the blind. I'm going to try one after you finish teaching me the tricks. Lookin Great.

Well ... it looks like you're it Dude. We got faith in your artistic abilities. After all ... you can make a shock absorber. |-)

Seriously. Doing both Dx and WB is taxing enough. Just do what you do best. Works every time. :thumbsup:

Failure is not an option.

I'm not much on wood themes. I like the technical and transparent themes but I like your mock up and definitely wood enjoy this one.
