I think i will not work on this any more. (I'm all busy with my other projects). If someone wants to adopt it, please leave a comment :-)

This is looking great, can't wait to see how it develops! As always it's very creative and not just another colour scheme for gonzo (as so many feathers are)

Thanks for your comments!

Actually, I feel I'm got stuck with this... It just doesn't look smooth. I don't mean the details, i can handle these, I mean the composition of the different panels overall. They don't look, like they fit together.

Take a look at my last screenshoot:
http://echopic.com/14ea/full (scroll down for colored overlay)

Media-Control-Panel (5) does not fit to the other parts, the shading of the Menu-bars (1) don't fit to the Service-Pane (2), Statusbar (6) and Content (4) don't even fit to anything at all :-D
Album-Art (3) to SP (2), is okay, but far away from great....

I think I have to get some inspiration, before i can go on ^^

If somebody else has an idea, i would love to read about it :-)

Good job. I've been trying to remove the clutter from songbird for a while now. I just havent been able to do it. My main problem was with the tabs and nav bar, but you seemed to have figured out a smart way about it. Once again, good job.

As for the album art: i think you should do a light blue CD half-way through a black slot load drive. Doesn't make that much sense when said, but that's my idea.

@Lib53: Thanks for your comment! Sorry, I can't imagine what you mean with the album-art thing. Is it possible for you to upload a sketch or something? That would be great!

Um, i don't feel like making it, but this is the idea . Obviously what you'll have will be adapted to the Amana theme.

I also would like to add that some of the stuff you're having trouble editing might look better in a really dark shade of grey, like onyx black.

This image is looking great! You mean, I should use something like this as the "no-album-art" background, right?

And yes, I definitely must do something about the different grey-shades... But generally I want to make it look bright, because I already have a dark feather. Even if a dark Amana-Feather would look cool, too.

I see what you mean about keeping it bright, but i think you should make the library all white and bright, other stuff a bit dark. That'll give it a more complete feeling. I suppose you could leave the playlist as it is.

It's a great theme, even if you don't use Amana on the whole desktop

The scrollbar needs to be a little darker. It's hard to tell where it's located. This is awesome though!

Hello Atreiu!

It's been quite a long time since you last updated this feather which, by the way, it's currently my favorite.

I don't know if you're aware, but there are a few minor problems with contrast that makes it difficult to read for instance the mashtape tabs.

Once you have time, please give it a look!

Thanks and keep them coming!

@atreiu,

I think that you do not have to have true congruency in this one. I personally believe that the contrasts do something for it overall.

How about utilizing more of that color that is on the quicklaunch toolbar in the second sample image. I would think it does not have to have so much white, and could have more of that shade instead.

Hi Atreiu!

I'm missing this feather in 1.1.1. Do you have any plans to update it?

Hope so.

Thanks and keep up the work!

Ruipenunes, I'm sorry, it's just like I wrote in the description:
