After noticing a rather annoying deficit of Plex visual styles for Windows 8.1, I decided to start working on one of my own, and set out to create (what I hoped would be) the best Plex visual style ever created for a released version of Windows. Here's what I've got so far: So far, do you think I've succeeded?

Wow that looks good, it looks much better with that theme. How did you get the windows to be so curved?

I just messed with the border images to get the right curve and used Aeroglass 8.1+'s RoundRectRadius option to "sand off" the square corners of the colorization region behind the window borders.

What is bad about all these visual styles after XP is that the taskbar does not support subpixel hinting.

Even the basic version of this theme looks good, albeit a bit incomplete. Mainly the inside of the explorer frames, and the taskbar. I do hope you include a full basic theme in the final version, as it would be nice for those who prefer to have DWM disabled.

I have every intention of doing so...difficulties with testing is the main obstacle right now

Looking good! Those icons look like they could really work with the Plex theme, and it'll be nice to have consistent icons (as opposed to the original Longhorn icons, which are either early versions of some of the Windows Vista icons or just the old Windows XP icons).
