This I have to agree with. I don't know what it is but this theme touches on something that makes it, well, special.
Outstanding work.

dude,
i checked out your "library," and you have absolutely no reason to criticize an expertly done theme when you have nothing under your belt other than a few very crudely crafted skins such as "doom"!!
No offense, man, but except in doom, you left all the windows xp toolbars, etc. . .

To get the icons to change you need a program called Icon Packager. I believe you can get it from www.iconpackager.net. If not you can always get it from stardock.com. After you download it you can download icon packager themes from the database here at wincustomize or from other sites like deviantart or skinning.net.

This skin is superb in almost all respects. It could be a teeny bit more transparent, and the start button could have maybe a larger clickable area. But it is near perfect aesthetically and functionally.
One request though: Please make the quicklaunch icons not be so spread out? I have about 10, and it takes up almost a third of my taskbar on a 1680 resolution screen. Other skins don't do this. Otherwise this is an A+ skin. Because of the icon issue, I use Ecliz Deluxe instead, but Eminence is just as good if not better, so I'd like to make good use of it.
Keep up the good work!

Simply amazing! Easy on the eyes as others have said.
SHOTT3R, try dragging the edge of your taskbar to allow 2 rows of icons...
...i like it this way

Thank you AndrewPlusPlus for the tip. However it is more a matter of personal preference. I could just as easily contract the Quicklaunch bar to a few icons then have the arrows menu, or expand my Programs spaces on the start menu. All that would however make getting to what I want two clicks instead of one, defeating the entire purpose of Quicklaunch. I got a 1680 screen precisely so I wouldn't have to double the taskbar. I find it ugly and not all skins have proper support for it. Then too, being on a laptop touchpad, it would mean I'd have to aim, instead of knowing that swooping to the bottom left will give me the start button without having to look.
If it's a big deal to change, then no worries. It's still a great skin and it's nice rjsmith2007 takes suggestions, as some authors do not. But if it is simple to change, why not? Compare Royale Vista, Eminence and Ecliz in the image below. Also, sorry for length of post

Fantastic!
I only have one qualm: It's very difficult to see the top of the scrollbar dragbar, and the controls such as the ones in the volume pane are also hard to distinguish from the background.

That is absolutely lovely, rjsmith2007! I feel honoured to have made a suggestion and seen it done. Hopefully I'm not the only one who wanted such added functionality.
Thank you again for your indulgence. I'll grab the update and apply it ASAP
