This Week in Skinning - April 20th

Skin Roundup for 4-20-07

Friday, April 20, 2007 by Island Dog | Discussion: Community

Well the end of the month is approaching and I am having a hard time picking skins to feature.  Not because there weren't enough, but because I'm just having a really hard time choosing from all the great submissions.  Remember I always appreciate your suggestions on skins to feature, and feel free to e-mail me your suggestions.

Also, don't forget the WebGizmo's ObjecDock Background Contest that is going on.  The deadline isn't until May 11th, so there is still plenty of time to enter.  Now let's take a look at this weeks picks.

 


INDUSTRIAL conformity for CursorXP
By Drill'n Boss

 


I really like the animations with this cursor.  He says it goes with Industrial skins and I can definitely agree, but even if you don't have an industrial skin, be sure to download it anyways.

 


 


 

 

CPU_TEMP in DesktopX Widgets
By RomanDA

 

Here is a simple CPU Temperature widget.  Color changes depending on temperature range.  Be sure to check his gallery for more great gadgets.


 



 

Ovals in Dreams
By Neil Banfield

 

 

This is a dynamic dream with two slowly moving semi-transparent oval shapes.  It's simple, but it looks really good on the desktop.

 

 




 

 

Clear OB for ObjectBar 2
By Quentin94

 

 

The ObjectBar 2 gallery on WinCustomize is started to get populated, and that is great news.  Quentin94 has been hard at work adding  a few skins in there, and this latest one deserves to be featured. 

 

 

 

 




Leather Dock Backgrounds for ObjectDock
By messiah1

 

 

 


This is a really cool set of dock with a real leather look to them.  Very nice work.

 

 

 

 




PoulanZ_Vista IE7 for ObjectDock
By PoulanZ

 

 



If you use IE 7, and there are people who do, then you should definitely check out this icon by PoulanZ.  Great job.

 

 

 




Fantasy World in Wallpapers
By enormousaxie


 



This is a really nice wallpaper, and I hope to see more from him.  However, I would like to see some resolutions with it.

 

 

 

 



Nuage Redux in WindowBlinds
By essorant

 


 


This skin is based off the original Nuage and makes great use of transparency.  There is also Vista compatible versions as well.

 

 

 

 



There were many great submissions this past week, but time and space won't let me list them all.  Be sure you browse the galleries on WinCustomize because you don't want to miss the other skins that are there.  See you next week!
