People should be making these choices links to be honest, otherwise who cares to read through it and then search the internet for an hour.


Yeah really...I mean I actually had to go to the front page and click on Enter The Forums. Then I had to drag my mouse all the way over to that search box (my hand is still killing me) and type the name of the VS that I was looking for. Man, I've never been soo worn out in my life.

On the VS side:

1) Luna Element 4 - a great mix of good looks, usability, and it fits in with many or all applications running on XP
1a) Luna Element 3 - Also a good VS.
2) OpusLuna - a great minimalistic skin, taking parts from Luna Silver and adding others
3) Longhorn '5203' (before it was renamed VistaXP) - one of the few DECENT looking LH/Vista ports. Many of them are full of jaggies and inconsistencies.

And before my full time usage of VSes, I was on WB:

1) Luster - one of the few WB skins that doesn't cause many problems with applications. Looks nice, clean, and streamlined.
2) Dogmax - a simple skin with gentle gradients, yet quite usable
3) ChristmasTime - while quite a clunky looking skin (and definitely not for the VS users!), it's lovely for December. For the other 11 months - it looks awkward.

Id have to agree, the only usable le version was v2. Since then, em3 has just been flogging an old skin. I'd like to see something new and original from the guy. I'm sure the creator of "the visual style some say is the best ever" could create something new right? Only time will tell.

Yea. Eventually I'll make something totaly new. But as it is now the msstyle format is not flexible enough to make the styles I want. sad.gif Maybe Vista msstyles will be. I hope so anyway.

I disagree with that, LE4 is the most usable theme to date, most people would tend to agree.

Note: I'm more into clear, crisp, bright and user-friendly ones like the list above. I add an extra one 'cause i'm feeling kind of generous this morning. Go take a look and I hope you enjoy them all as much as i do. biggrin.gif
