personally i don't use the navigation pane, and in my book with as much stuff as there is in the nav pane a image would be TOOOO distracting. there is plenty you can do to make this theme pop without customizing the nav pane. on that note this thread will remain where it is in the hopes that you will continue with this theme. on another note i took another look at your above image and personally i'd use the level of transparency on that startmenu for both the main windows explorer window and the navigation.

I dont even know how he got the nav pane to be transparent like that.

I agree though.. went this far with it.. might as well finish. Someone else would prolly turn it into something totally different

Actually I only wanted an image to fix the excessive transparency...my vision looked kinda like this:

It's pretty simple, actually: Just use Black Glass Enhanced and WinaeroGlass at the same time. Problem is, it can't be a really dark colour, as that produces near-100% transparency, with no blur.

Anywaves, this encouragement from you guys really means a lot to me. Maybe I can still make something satisfactory of this...
