When Apple start selling white-based products such as iBook or iPod,
I want to have sumple premium accents which fit to these products.
that is why I made this theme.
I repeated the process of trial and error in achieving a balance of brightness of color because
if illuminate too much not to white looks like gray, overall tone gone and appearance of solidity is lacked.
By using highlight effectively, you feel enough whiteness even if base color is dark in part.
At illuminate selected area, I add dilute green not to blend in with white base color.
As a result, this becomes one of the individuality of Siro Skin that I feel.
This theme has dark ambience that based black mat and put metaric buttons on the body.
Cell-phone of foreign make which has burly and applicative black body, is used as motif.
Not to become dull, I finish slightly scabrous mat texture which is not self-black.
Dark type theme easily becomes hard to see, and useless. However,
this theme use bright buttons to create a contrast and that make this skin useful.
