hey, quick note on the textures thing, i don't know if anyone mentioned this site, www.darknews.com

"High-Res Textures

These (non-tiling) textures are free to use for both commercial and non-commercial purposes. However, these images are NOT for resale (i.e. CD Bundles, etc.).

Most are around 3000×2300 give or take some pixels. Some may have been cropped. If you're looking for tiled textures, you may need to do some work on some of these — only a portion will work for tiling with some tweaking. Not all images are
of the best quality; if you're looking for the best, download the RAW versions
(in either JPG or RAW format) as those were taken with my DSLR.

Enjoy - Jacob"

Well, that's a freaking masterpiece. Looks like candy.

I was just going through all of the layers. There's some really good use of the shape function to create highlights. It's very impressive.

I found a tutorial on creating a knob in Photo Shop here. I attempted to adapt it for KnobMan:

PS Tutorial Knob for KnobMan

The tutorial began losing me when he started layering "orbs." I tried to approximate the effect to a degree with a little success.

you can (i'm thinking) do some visual effects in gimp and then just import it as a texture, or a pic. just a thought. (add a sparkle highlight for example)

Yes for sure! But (for me) it's like a challenge to use as less as possible others programs than KM!

Critique Request

Below is a practice GUI I'm working on:

There are things I don't like about it:

1) The red button is the bypass switch. That needs to be changed to something else. Maybe a LED button of some type, i.e. it needs a way to indicate when the effect is in On mode and when it is in Bypass mode.

2) While I like the main green LCD, I'm not sure about the blue LCD boxes. They don't look right.

3) I'm not sure about the position of all of my labels.

4) The Mix slider thumb looks too flat.

Comments/Suggestions welcomed.
