Holy cow! Your skills are already super good. I'm gonna download this and make some tweaks to better suit my tastes, but wow, nice work! What I would suggest, initially, is that you tweak the content margins of the titlebar, for long window names. They seem to overflow a bit. Plus, you may want to move the text up a bit, just to keep it all contained within. I'd say that your Compact start menu may need some further adjustment as well, but this skin is definately good. 
Thanks a ton for putting in this great effort.

Wow!! This is seriously cool and original. 
There do seem to be some sizing issues in the start menu which I hope you'll feel able to rectify at some point but otherwise this is just what a dreary day in winter needs! Thanks for the summer feeling!!!

CerebroJD, thanks for your input, I will work of those issues and see about correcting them. As for the start menu, are you referring to the skewered flowers? I tried everything to get them sized right and this was the best I could do. I will go back and see what I can do, maybe skewer them in Photoshop to come out right. I forgot to add in the narrative that I included a subskin without the flowers and "cutesies" if anyone is interested.
Thank you BabyFaceLima, I am gonna work on that, I'm glad you like it. Also thanks Josephs and Lotherius (I think).

Well, I must say that I like this better than the other...it's more focused and less distracting. I'm a HUGE fan of colorful skins and am also already a fan of your work in general! There a few things I would like to see different about this one...but again much better than the other...so I won't go into all that, though I would like to suggest you carry those smilie faces into more places and or the flowers too. They make a great background and wall, but I think that part of them is a little too full, try lowering the coverage...

Not very good, (not being a dick or anything) but much better than the first one you made. At least with this one you tried putting some skill to work. Try making things so that they are all even and centered. Make sure the images fit the text. Also make sure everything is easy to read.

I liked this one a lot. The only thing that I can suggest is to make the wallpaper one complete picture not with the bottom half grayed but overall this is great.

Well, I do like it, I'm a smilie person...LOL
I just re-read the comment I left up there, and I knew I saved the text into NotePad for a reason...the other half of my comment was cut off...LOL
Cont...
...and to take the place of those you should really consider using the smilies as buttons...you could use 
the different expressions of the smilies as the different states of the buttons....mouse-over, disabled, pressed...etc. With all the fun smilie faces your options would really be unlimited...and also think about using the colors and the different expressions together. Like make the "Close" b

Well, it's just a thought, and I would even know where to begin doing it myself, but I'd be interested to see what comes of it....I actually had several other ideas, but they got cut too, oh well, you get the idea...I think I was going to say like make the close button and color it red for normal, then 
and blue for hover, and like 
and green from pressed....but that's only if you want to make it really fun and colorful, though it could end up being overkill...I suppose I should try a WB of my own, because I have a dozen different ideas, but I don't really have to patience for it...I'm so glad people like you do!

~Needs a little work on compact but I love it. So many of the skins are male oriented...i wanted " cutesie " and you pulled it off. I think you need more flowers and or smilies on start menu.
