Here is Another Qutiny Screenshot Showing Another Experimental Theme

Here is another experimental theme design for Qutiny (the file browser). Again, this is just a theme and you can restore the original ones just by selecting the theme from the Interface Theme menu.

The actual color tone would be different on your computer because the overall look depends on the wallpaper in use but nonetheless, it would look rather close to what you see here because the code is applying an additional colour tone over the frosted background (like an overlay). The reason I do that is to circumvent issues such as dark text against dark backgrounds (the text would be unreadable) which is an issue with aero-like themes so due to such issues, I am reconsidering my plans about going full aero.

I mean, even operating systems such as Windows 7 are not full aero. The task bar is, the application menu is but programs such as the file explorer, control panel and the likes are opaque.

Here is my design and again, all of these screenshots are subject to change. I will provide more updates as I go along.

Here is another screenshot of the same theme but using a different wallpaper:
