Definitely a nice twist on the default Windows XP skin. I love the fact that the Windows flag is on the Programs list. A pretty cool skin. :CONGRATS:

Thats pretty neat. It would freak some people out wondering how you got the (normal) windows to look that way. Cool idea.

No offense here , but this skin looks like a slightly modified version of Royale by Microsoft with very little changes to make it different.

This looks nice but it looks way to much like Windows Media Center. It would have been nice if you would have also changed the icons in Internet Explorer and else where like many other skins. I think if this were done it would have seperated this more from Microsoft's Window Media Center.

Well done but I bought windowblinds to have functional original skins.
Not my taste... but maybe others will go wild for it...

While different colours is great , its easy to change a skins colour inside WindowBlinds. But this still makes me feel like im looking at the same old boring look from Microsoft

The MS Luna theme is a lot better than some of these comments imply. Do you truly think the typical original skin is better than Luna?
To my taste, the problem with this skin is that it falls short of Luna in one very important way: Luna provides consistent and appropriate color in the toolbar area for Office 2003 applications. The skinning pertaining to the toolbars is more important than the title bar, because: 1) You look at it a lot more; and 2) It seems much harder to do right. The master of that craft is Essorant.
