Over at WinCustomize we have just had the 2004 "Skinnies" awards for the best skins of 2004.

But we also want to include the best msstyles too since they have become quite popular in the past few years. Based on another post, we were able to narrow it down to a few outstanding visual styles in the msstyles format.

So let us know what you think. Which of these is the best. We had to choose msstyles that came out in 2004 and were not ports or too derivative of a Longhorn or Royale or Luna style.

You can see the WinCustomize Skinnies awards [HERE].

Seems like you forgot quite a few, I made a list of the styles that were mentioned in the "best styles of 2004" section. Well making a poll with all of them might be a bit crazy, but leaving out inspirat made me vote Sustenance.

@VenQWish/everyone-else

Just vote what's on the poll, he hasn't "forgotten" anything, just chosen not to put those in. If the theme you like the best isn't there, just state it in the thread. This may sound a little patronising, but atleast others will know what I've said anyway.

:p

If you had read all of the first post, you would see it is for original msstyles and no longhorn/luna derivatives. So inspirat is out.

i fear that many people are voting for a certain visual style because it is so fresh in their minds (having been released not too long ago).

not to say the vs doesn't deserve the votes and not to assert that a poll really means anything, just saying.

I just like the curves and shape to Sustenance. I do like the glass effects of Royal Inspirat and the beta Infini8, and Opus is nice but a little too all-one-color for my taste.

It's ABUSOLUTELY ridiculous how Royale/Longhorn Inspiriat by Stefanka is not mentioned as one of the contestants.

Unlike other LH/Royale/Luna copycat or recoloured VS, it was unique, glossy, beautiful and innovative.

Again, they were UNIQUE!!!
