Nice Work! There are limits to how the UI can be implemented. They have to make sure it wont either eat up your CPU or your GPU, and they also have to make sure it doesn't present any delay (what we call lag).

I am planning to try though, but it might not be as good-looking as the concept is | | My System Specs | | Windows 8 Concept problems? All times are GMT -5. The time now is 03:11 AM. |  |
