Playing around with the reflections textures and some archival transparencies from some beta builds of windows 8. I can't help but feel this is exactly how this texture was meant to be applied to the explorer shell. Kind of like the office suite at the time, if any of you played around with the different textures you could apply there.

Screenshot information

Note: My change log claims to be version 1.2(which comes after 1.14). Bliss 2016 rescan, a full res version of windows 11 img50, as well as PixelSense and office template backgrounds might be missing from the archive I linked. No idea what's up with that.
