New light grey Vista style tab on nav bar
Posted by Stephane on April 30, 2008
I have changed again the bottom nav bar to a light grey in the Windows Vista style.
It’s v. 3 already. 
I began with some dark grey gradiant who was ugly !
I keep the 3d icon I made upon. It’s a little kitsh but I like icons. )
And there were cinema 4D made of course !
I design the nav under fireworks. I just love this piece of software. It’s export all the nav as jpg or gif just the way I wanted to : in a mouse click with export function ! You just have to name your slices properly.
I use a 1pixel border with no antialiasing, then a linear fill gradiant who match Windows Vista style gradiant. I use the “pipette” to clone colors from fireworks system itself. I love the way Fireworks can catch any colors on your screen, including other programs or windows colors ! Why PhotoShop can’t make it ?
Then, I set up an handy “biseau” effect with to add some inner lighten effect.
Tell me if you like the new nav bar with tab (we said “onglet” in French).
