Not bad. A few comments:
The normal buttons could do with being a bit wider (currently they're banding). Similarly for the menu image, the XP user pane top and a few others where that gradient occurs - it could be smoother.
Doesn't look quite right on tool windows. WB can do separate images for these (and separate buttons).
The min and max buttons do not behave identically when the window is changed from active to inactive - max changes, min does not.
The user icon and text could be fully inside the border if the ContentLeft and ContentTop of [StartPanel.UserPane]
The corner bit where horizontal and vertical scrollbars meet is not meant to be transparent, as there is nothing for it to be transparent *to*.
Text is black on the taskbar icons (because you didn't specify it - you need a [colourX] section and NormalColour=X etc in the appropriate sections. Not hugely readable.
Appropriate dialog and explorer bitmaps would be a nice addition.
The start menu hilight colour (MenuHilight in [colours]) is not specified - perhaps MenuHilight=255 227 165 or something close to that?
The window text is not level with the window icon. Seemed a little odd to me. Perhaps the icon should be further down?
The left and right start menu images are not set to tile correctly and therefore if the start menu is higher than expected, nasty stretching of the side occurs.
No feedback when you move the mouse over the close button.
I want an animated start button ring!

It does not seem to skin the start button as shown.
Looks good though!

Wonderful! Simply wonderful... Just take a look at the start menu (unfortunately not seen on the preview). The best skin since a long time... Only problem I found by now: black text on the taskbar icons.

Thank you. The real credit goes to Romsi. She's a really talented artist and very creative. All I have done is bring her magical work to WindowBlinds. I still need to work on this because there's just so much that needs to be done. The start menu stuff isn't very well explained anywhere. I did my best. Will work more on it soon.

I was also wondering about the availability of the wallpaper.

I like it, but it seems that it did not skin correctly with the task bar and the start button. Any chance you can correct this problem and any others soon? Please contact me with an update, I really love the way it looks on my PC.

Cool skin. Only one problem... In the taskbar, when a program is running background, you can't read it's title (dark on dark). But I like ALL the rest!!!
