Looks really unique and nice if possible.

Remember the first rule of Fight Club, my friend Eek

Interesting concept and nice looking graphics. You are looking at some heavy animation work to get those wraplists to flow nicely with those crooked overlays and borders. Just something to think about. Good luck with your project!

I just want to say I really like this. I loved the concrete idea as well but that seemed to fall to the way side and what we tend to get left with is a lot of stuff that looks 'the same'

I truly mean no disrespect but really it wants a shake up and this sort of thing is exactly whats required. I just really hope you guys work it through.

I've got the graphics on lock, I'm psyched. Hopefully I'll find a partner who can help with the actual skinning, otherwise I'm going to be a while learning the skinning engine more in-depth.

I think it could help the poster fit a bit better to make a textured diffuse border from the texture underneath it, rather than use a hard straight edge.

Other than that, I'm really liking the look of this. Definitely very creative.

Yeah I think that will most likely end up being a drop shadow instead. The good news is everything is transparent png and layered up in Photoshop so minor tweaks like that are no big deal.
