Its cool Chris...it was really more a dig at the entire minimilistic scene...Snowman is right...I...dont get it at all.So ina way,I'm unfit to judge a minimal theme.
When I said you could rip on my werk...I meant it in fun,I dont get upset with people who dont like my work...I delight in it.�

Dangit Nicholasworld...you didnt come see me on my latest WB...I'm hurt.(and nobody mentioned plagarism...whats up with that?�
�)(and we need a 3rd stooge� )�
Pompous?nah...not my intention...minimilistic skinning is just beyond my understanding...like V said...its anti-skinning.��

Wincustomise has a severe problem with honest opinions...criticise too harshly,your an ass or think your superior...yet we get sheeplike praise and its all good.Sheeesh!��

Yeah, this is the minimalistic style alright. My only critique would be that you have states for buttons..no states kind of brings confusion......�

WOW! I can't believe what I am reading!
How 'bout we head back to the part about COMMUNITY! I trying to following some of these judgments to their logical conclusion.....there isn't any.
Everyone can have an opinion but the delivery sucks here for a few. Seems to me I just leaped in here recently to defend one of the above folks because some DOOOOFUSS called his skin a foul name. I didn't have any problem at all with the guy's opinion but he sure didn't have any concept of contributing anything to the process. Surprised to see the guy who got nailed with his nail gun out.
If we keep judging, we are going to have about 2 'perfect' presentations a month and not much else. Personally, I would rather see a bunch of folks in the process of getting it 'right'.
JMHO

And Clyde you just made my point perfectly...I loved that people came to my defense,it made me feel appreciated...but I really didnt have a problem with his(new jersey devil) comment,unenlightening as it was.
Yet i have expressed clearly my feelings to Chris's style and he accepts it for what it is...my opinion.A strong critique is preferable I would think to any skinner than endless 'good job' comments.
A 'community' that cant accept that is just a bad enabling support group.
Sorry we hijacked your comments Chris.IF...I insulted you somehow,please accept my opinions for what they are...my opinions.(damn thse durn meds)��

What is so wrong with minimal skins? This one looks lovely, especially when compared to the gaudy over the top looks of a lot of skins... in my eyes anyway... which is exactly the point. I'm just giving my view- not saying its the greatest skin ever...
Wincustomize is not- as far as I'm aware (I didnt get a memo) a non-minimal skin site. Its a site for all types of Windowblinds. I think its a bit rich for people to slate a nice piece of work purely because its not their scene. So what if it doesnt have mouseovers? Maybe suggest including them next time- maybe its just not in the creators vision of what he wanted the skin to look like- maybe some people dont want all the bells and whistles on every single skin! People put their skins up on here to share their work and get constructive criticism, not to be abused and tiraded against... Frankly many of you's words are pretty offensive and downright obnoxious.
I like this skin. I agree that some extra touches would be nice (mouseovers, vista version for me!), but even as it is it is a lovely piece of work and frankly yes its refreshing to see such work on this site. Nothing wrong with a bit of variety. The skin has obviously taken a fair bit of work and been thought through aesthetically. It's not just another by the numbers slight variation on Vista or the old royale themes with a few shiny reflections for good measure.
I like minimal skins. I like complex and intricate skins too. I dont like rude people who want to impose their own small-mindedness on other people. There is a difference between constructive criticism and petty small-mindedness, rude posturing and sheer obnoxiousness.

Chris, this is an OK skin. Is there anything I would change about it? About 537 different things but that's just me. The mouse-overs, or lack there of, are the biggest thing that I can tell. Everything else is just personal prefference.
After reading all the comments, there were only about 2 or 3 comments that were constructive. Most of them were "hate comments".
So here is what you do for next time. If you ever upload anything again.
Don't upload anything that "you" like and want to share freely with everyone.
Only upload skins that everbody else wants and the way they want them skinned.
Remember, never do what you want. Always follow the crowd.
Sarcasm can be used as a tool! Just make sure my back isn't turned when you use it. �

*raises hand, jumps up and down....
Oh....I could break out the dictionary and go to town on this...but, ....
hahahahahahaha..... Count me in for speeding thru the marina!! Truth be told, and it already has been...... NO ARTIST CAN GROW WITHOUT CRITICISM. Take it or leave it.
Rock the boat eh? I love it....some think that's all I come here to do... sad.
As far as the skin goes....so as to not get too far off topic. To each their own. I don't really see anything in this skin to comment about really.

and we need a 3rd stooge
*raises hand, jumps up and down....
Astounding by 2 stooges "assailed" the newbie,even their own skins are out of praise. One is harassing those masterskins,copycat masters' concept,apely,to be exact and porting unduly VSes to make ends mean-longing for the master position ASAP. The other one is making the bigger frame of Windowsblind skins I has ever seen which means "unaesthetic".
Oh....I could break out the dictionary and go to town on this...but, ....
I personally feel that we all have to stop being so scared to rock the boat

If you think those were constructive, they weren't. All they did was make certain people look a bit pompous.
Thanks for the wb chris.
