This theme uses:

  • xpaintclass
  • xlabel
  • xtaskbar
  • xpopup
  • xtray
  • xdesk
  • xstatsclass
  • dynamp
  • lslua

The taskbar on the left monitor is actually two taskbars; one for the 32px icons and another for the arrow indicator below it. The text on the top is actually the tooltip for whichever task the mouse is hovering over. Likewise, the text in the top left corner is the tooltip for the currently hovered upon tray icon. The album art is part of a lua script tnl wrote that parses .png album art. I'm currently working with .alur's new AlbumArt module to be able to display regular .jpg album art and avoid the hassle of running scripts to convert .jpg>.png.

The rest of the theme is black labels with TextureAlphaTransparency applied liberally throughout. Fonts are Futura, Segoe UI Caps, Bitstream Vera sans Mono, Webdings, and Swis721. The icons are some set by Imrik the name of which escapes me. The Foobar2000 config is a modified version of Azrael for foo_ui_columns.

Nice grungy wallpaper.

Is that rocketdock or something down the bottom? or litestep?

xPaintClass can use .jpg's too.

The dock at the bottom is just two xtaskbars like I said in the description.

 

I'm working on a public release right now. I'm only going to release a single-monitor version of the theme since I don't have the time to make this theme work on single monitor and dual monitor setups.
