Inspired a lot by this shot, but like I said over there, I wanted to try a dark version.
If it's not clear from the shot, it's supposed to be continuous with the "dark" status bar, and to do so a 70% black overlay is applied to whatever wallpaper the user has applied.
Here's my take on what a mockup iOS5 notifications screen could look like more my style. I wanted to keep the linen there but not very much so if you opened up the notifications screen there'd be a smooth overlay covering your wall with a dash of vignette and the linen texture to keep the notification screen more sharp. Sure not everyone will like this but it's just a mockup. :D I uploaded a full res shot so you could see it full view. Just messed with some ideas and though I'd post a rebound of Dustin's AWESOME PSD. Love to hear your thoughts. Cheers!
I emailed Steve Jobs about Linen and included a link to this post in the email. Unfortunately, this was his response: "We think the linen looks better than this."

Wish there was a theme like this for LockInfo. Great concept Dustin, maybe can be created and applied when iOS 5 will be released :)

Not bad Dustin, but you got rid of the "module" elements that I think we all liked so much about the white :)

Can't tell if serious… if so, I think the plethora of attempts to 'fix' the notifications window proves otherwise.
