Congratulation.

Would have been nice to see how the taskbar handles windows from program not pinned on it. Because actually you only showed windows launched directly from the taskbar itself.

How can one know that they've closed all open applications?

Oooooh, look into my eyes.

This looks very nice and clean! Everything is packed into the taskbar: Window manager, program launcher, task switcher, progress bar, jump lists, and a little bit of magic-- yet it still looks and operates very elegantly! Nice!

I can't wait! I wish I could get a beta copy. It would make a nice Christmas gift... just throwin' it out there. *Hint hint*

Pwease?

You might have noticed that the applications that are running are outlined. The applications that are not running are not outlined. I hope that answers your question.

Below are the series of 5 shots - cut into fragments. Take each fragment, and remix the highlighted portions. When we mix them together, it'll be a global collaboration where within every shot, multiple creators will be present.

Of course, if you want to remix other sections, or use this in other work, thats up to you! But the plan that exists now is to take the Times Square bits and rotoscoping them, photoshop them, re-create them, and remix the private corporate world back into the public domain.
