Maybe I’m just weird or something, but I don’t see the need of 4 nearly identical skins. Just my opinion.

ok, but this one is actually the best of the four becuase this one is competely accurate that is why I uploaded it.

And actually I make these skins really for me, for my OS, but this one is made for the Luna Experienced theme I am doing in DesktopX too. Which is not finished yet. Also the other three Luna skins will be removed at some point soon. As this is the skin I was working towards getting right

Another great XP skin by thecat2000. I'm sure the update tomorrow will be even better. I can hardly wait.

Maybe it's just me....but I find it rather odd that you comout with your best XP skin to date...shortly after Dan Camp's Xp skin...and it looks pretty much identical to his. That start button is definitely different than the on all you other Xp skins. Hmmmmm

Mr david70 Unless you didn't realise ALL XP Luna skins are supposed to be all based on the same OS. So yes I should think they DO look like each other. You mention Dan ! Ok, well i will let you in on a secret that is Dan and I discussed My work on this skin and allowed me to update and fix some of the code. So thanks Dan

Also the Skins actually are not the same though, my skin is different in colour, and the menu backgrounds in my version are the same as they actually are in the OS. But believe me there is nothing odd about this at all.!

Oh and Mr David, Don't YOU get tired of writing your same comment's all over the Internet. Is there some thing you are trying to say ? then please do. I am waiting for you to hang yourself on this one.

If you need to varify your own supicious mind then write to Dan yourself and moan to him. I am sure Dan will understand. Well Actually Dan Already knew what I was doing on my XP skin BEFORE I uploaded it. I asked wether I could use some of his graphics, but in the end I didn't. But I manipulated some of his code in the end to resolve some bugs I found in mine. But Dan knew about me wanting to work from parts of his work So why are you moaning ??

Couldn't you have just updated one of your other 30 XP skins instead of creating a brand new one?

Ummm...something I'm trying to say? I think i already did. Basically that even if you did get his permission to use his skin, what's the point of doing the skin in the first place if you're going to make it the same as his?
If you were doing a skin for a different program that he had not done or something I could understand. People do that all the time, but to release a pretty much identical skin??

Hey Mr. David, I think you sholdn't be complaining about Lady thecat2000's skins. The reason she does them all is that they are all different in some way. Some of them have different wallpaper, some may have different icons, some other bugs were fixed too. She even got permission and I bet the skin is different in some way than Dan Camp's. Why can't you just seem to realize that?

WTF ?! I DONT have 30 XP skins you damned morons. I only have two!! Are you blind as well as stupid ??! I deleted all the old ones they are *NOT* here anymore !

DAVIDK This is *NOT* the SAME Skin as Codebytes. You obviously have NOT even downloaded this skin to realise they are different. If you had of done you would not say such stupid things.

Thank you Blazer583 I am glad sanity is still around this site after all and some one can tell the difference between people skins. Your right too, The skin is not the same as Dan's my colours are different to his colours. The background menu's, and general colour scheme is all different as well as the graphics used in the skin. I did not use Dans graphics, and this is what people like this David70 doesn't understand because he has never downloaded the skin I bet. He would then know this skin is a good replica of build 2485 of XP. I know it is because I use windows XP as well as WinME. I do this work for my ME Machine,.

thecat: I never saw one comment from DavidK in one of your skins, he is one of the most gentle persons of this cummunity and as far as I know, he is on campping vacation rigth now, hundreds of milles far from his computer.
So, I belive it would be better for you to read the name of the person, before being mad to the wrong David.

I have decided to contact you about my LunaXP 2485 skin and would like to know why you seem to be taking my skin in such a bad light like this.

Also what is this 'Permission' thing you were ranting on about ? For using Dans skin ?

Look, I think your actually very mixed up about this and have got things wrong by what I was saying about this.

This is NOT Dan's skin, and the differences between the two skins are very noticable when you have the skin loaded in window blinds. My colours are different, as well as graphic files, and Background menu's. Unless you failed to understand this, This skin is a good replica of Build 2485 of Windows XP, and Iknow this because I use windows Xp on my dual Boot system. So all the colours in my skin, and other things you see are based exactly on that theme I use in the real XP.

Dan helped me Debug the skin, as I asked him. I did ask could I also use some of his graphics, but in the end it was not nessary to do that. So I only used Dan's on the code to debug mine. He knows about this, and Dan and I have the up most respect for each other. So if he is happy with this why arent you ??

Sorry Treetog, but i am MAd about these comments that just seem to turn into abuse. I doubt that any of these people even tried downloading the skin to see the actual difference's in the skins. I am only MAd at the David70 I am not aware DavidK is here, I know DavidK from the message boards, but I am not aware he posted here ?.

It's a good skin thecat2000. I like the XP style. If i didn't I would just ignore it, so it shouldn't be a problem.... Do you have metallic or homestead one coming up?

Excellent work thecat2000!
From what I've seen here you overestimate my contribution!
Extra congratulations for the Menus and WebBlinds section. Amazing! Definitely the best so far.
I just can't wait to see your DesktopX theme!

thecat2000....

This is another wonderful creation of the Windows XP theme. I love all the different versions you have, and have kept them all in my Windowblinds configuration. I just have one question on this one. I know in XP there is that "font smoother" or some feature that makes the fonts look very smooth. I see by your screenshot, this looks like it has that feature all ready to go...When I installed it, I don't seem to have that smooth font"ness" that XP provides..I am running Windows 2000. Anything I can do to turn this feature on?

If you have Skin studio load it up and edit my UIS skin file. Go to the preferences section I think it is in and look for title bar font. Turn on antialiasing. It should smooth the font out more.

I would like to see some XP themes that used WindowBlinds features better. Like an XP skin that uses WBMenu plugin or MP3 player or something.
