With a name like "Diabolic" for a WindowBlinds theme, it is expected that there should be some more sinister design elements to be at work here. Truthfully, this is not diabolic enough. Think 'dangerous,' think 'catastrophe' -- really push your imagination further on this theme, please. I'd suggest you put in some more creativity into the theme as well, particularly the fonts and colors. A good example of what I'm talking about is the WindowBlinds theme "Descent" by Navigatsio. You could also consider adding some minor design elements, like studs or rivets.
I just wanna see a "diabolic" skin really live up to the moniker.
At least the whole skin is easily readable, and your use of grays really help that along.

I like it. It's clean and still with some small finesse. Nice! 
Fairyy~

~I think this is just fine the way it is. Some of us like a simple skin without too much going on some days. I think the bright orange is very fitting. I'm sure as you progress in your skinning you'll get more daring. Maybe not..either way, you skin for yourself. You share with us. Think some people need to be reminded of that.
Thankyou

Thanx, but yes it is sadly true that some people need to be reminded of that I skin for myself... I am just a newbie. I got interested in this skinning things just a few months ago.

The orange makes the skin--and makes the skin diabolical. Great contrast effect. Visually stimulating without straining the eye, due to the contained use of orange. Orange seems to produce strong reactions, negative and positive. Maybe there's a recessive gene for liking orange.
Don't get defensive, though. You did ask whether people like it. Be prepared to get negative reactions. If the skin elicits strong feelings both ways, it should help you to know this.

I think its grand, but the shutdown and logoff buttons are missing from the start menu in XP for some reason. Still usable and good looking though.
