Overall Vision Originality Technique ImpactSemplicemente il miglior tema per Windows Vista che sia mai esistito. Mi viene solo ora di scrivere una critica (in senso positivo), perchè, dopo averlo usato per tanto, sono passata a windows 7, ma adesso, avendo di nuovo un PC con vista X64 nuovo di zecca, ho riavuto modo di metterlo su e ho approfittato della Premium Membership per scriverla.
E' senz'altro il mio tema preferito, i colori della taskbar (in stile superbar) e l'effetto "soft" del menu start è fantastico.
Per non parlare poi dell'effetto "glass" sui bottoni attivi, quello mi ha fatto innamorare fin dal primo momento.
Adoro anche la scelta dei colori usati per i pulsanti delle finestre, di colore vetro-neutro, adattabili a qualsiasi wallpaper e della giusta trasparenza, come tutto il tema d'altronde.
Poi il fatto che sia Made In Italy, è il TOP, la ciliegina sulla torta.
Un prodotto 100% Italiano scaricato da una miriade di persone ed apprezzato, che non teme paragoni, di una qualità Impressionante.
Valutazione al 100% Positiva ovviamente.
Questo è il tema perfetto per l'user che vuole il PC "sempre fresco e nuovo" ma desidera anche un tema che non comprometta l'usabilità del pc, cioè buggato, pieno di colori scuri e scritte illeggibili.
E' letteralmente impossibile stancarsi di SteelFlash Final, per la sua semplicità, bellezza, e il suo tocco di stile.
Davvero Complimenti.
