Effects for Skin

Hi to all,
I've seen the GUI of PlayStation 3, and i think it's very interesting:
dark, minimal, using many transparencies and with animations (ok,
maybe all this consuming a lot of GPU processing power).

The Glow / Halo effect on labels is subtle but effective, and also the
animated background ...

Ok, this is a question of taste, i know ... but with Pivot (current
version, or the future 2.0), would it be possible to write a skin like
this or something is missing ?

Bye,
Sandro

Nothing missing - this is definitely possible using our current APIs.
