Getting a new drawing tablet and computer is getting repaired... I've waited for like over a week now and still haven't gotten it, but rest assured I'll do some work when I get them... and about making the Travelform more dark, I don't think so, I rather have a whole revamp on the texturing or even take a new model (have to see how it turns out) as I'm getting tired of the cheetah pattern and it doesn't really fit imo.
And about the UI, sorry to hear that. I can't do your version though if you have a widescreen monitor, something that a few people have requested over the months... I need one myself in order to do that.
If it's perhaps 800x600 I could do that for you (but then your computer would basically not be fit for my artwork, generally speaking).
