What to do when you cannot see some software applications lettering, and noticed this specific WinCustomize browser is showing dark background and some grapics are not showing up in total?

Nice theme but had to give up finally and change to something lighter due to problems with reading tabs in Mozilla Firefox (background is too dard 
can not read tabs names as a result)... Also I am facing the same kind of readability problems in Mozilla Thunderbird. Unfortunattely I had no opportunity to test many of other programs I used to use with current theme but I am pretty sure to face the same issues.

yes, there is a light version coming
dark skins, using light fonts on a darker background will always have some compatibility issues - it is to do with how people create software and web pages
for example: many web pages might hard code a white background but use the default system font colour for the text - resulting in white fonts on a white background. Of course one solution is for the web page designer to hardcode both the text colour AND the background colour, but unfortunately this is not always the case.
To ksamvel, I don't know why you are having problems with firefox, you say dark fonts on dark tabs? I use firefox exclusively and have white text on dark tabs (using the default firefox theme). There is a setting in firefox options to use the system colours - I don't know if that would have any effect.
Anyway, as I say, I am sorry for the occasional compatibility issues - I am afraid they are inherent in a dark skin of this type. I am currently working on a light version of GT3 designed for maximum compatibility.

Awesome skin. GT3 was always one of my favorites and this one really takes the cake. However, I am not a fan of the dark backgrounds and light colored fonts. Can't wait for the lighter version.

Outstanding addition to the pile of Omni, GT3 and K- stuff i run. Thanks for the update Tiggz. Also love the new GT 3 icons and pngs. ( Still use the old GT3 wall paper, though..prefer it over the new one) Helpful for the darkness would be clear how to's to change the background color and fonts for Outlook mail.. a little too lost in the dark..hard to read for habitual Outlook users. 
I'm running your GT3 png icons in a no background clear dock.. with a tabbed GT3 second dock at top..with Omni Time, analogue clock, and mail widgets, K-weather and your Rainlender. Like the old GT3 meter widget ( ..but doesn't seem to work on new DT X stuff..need an update there. Using Cabal meters ( which still work nicely) until I find a better option) .

You are the only author I do searches for by name. I always can count on quality work and your style just completely appeals to me and obviously, so many others.

Something wrong with the download today--can't get it to work with WB5. The link simply downloads a ZIP file.

Using GT3-lite 'till GT3wb5-lite becomes available.
Noticed while working with IE7 beta 2, that GT3wb5 is necessary to prevent problems with sub-menus in IE7that occured while using GT3-lite. I simply selected the GT3wb5 skin in the Per application settings for iexplore.exe.
