First impressions: It's not horrible. One thing: The "Selected" text on Start Menu items is white, agains a very light blue background - almost impossible to read. Looking at your description at devart, I see you don't want to fix bugs, but this is a pretty big one. I suggest you reconsider your "no fixes" stance.

Other than that... it's not horrible. :)

edit: Sorry about the double-post; I expected IPB to append the first post.

I made this **** for free and you don't want me at least to make some few cents? What kind of hater are you?

Thanks for the opinion fam. I didn't test the skin on other computers, so I had no idea about it. I'm gonna check this out once I have a few more bugs and other stuff pointed out.

BTW, no hate for double posting.

It's just another luna mod, and people "graze" this forum all the time.

My own time? I made this skin!

No, Microsoft made this skin, you made a few changes. No, I'm not taking anything away from you, but give credit where credit is due.

I'm not a "hater", I'm white. Montreal is just up the road from Compton now, is it? Fo shizzle.

Dude, seriously, try to look at it from my (our?) perspective: Why would I want to click through annoying ads when I don't have to?

The more you post, the less I feel like being nice about this VS. It's actually pretty bad, sort of a mish-mash of different styles which, when smushed together thusly, doesn't really work. Sorry.

Almost every single bitmap in this skin was made by me. I didn't just change a button and say this is a new skin. Microsoft gave me the format, TGTsoft gave me the tools and I made this skin.

I case you forgot what Luna looked like, go here.

What does being white have to do with anything? Anyways, sorry you didn't like it.

Yes, you used Photoshop and made them but, the ideas came from Microsoft, I can see Luna, Royal and Aero in "your" theme.

That's beside the point, I wasn't trying to imply you didn't put effort into this. I've made a few bad attempts at theme making and realize the effort it takes. Don't take this so seriously, it's only ones and zeros. :)

Yeh, I won't lie that Aero, Royale and Aqua was a source of inspiration. I wasn't aiming at making a completly new skin but more of what the default XP skin should look like. Because I just can't stand Luna and when I see it on a computer, I just want to change it. But problem is, most skin will make people not so good at computer feel a bit lost lol. And nah man, I'm not taking this seriously lol

Aren't those sort of links against the rules? Just asking.

I searched for "Linkbucks" before posting and I found nothing. But I don't see why it would be against the rules.

The caption buttons from the first preview looked much better. And the not-so-glossy startmenu does not fit with the glossy taskbar and startbutton. Otherwise I really like it. So if you could fix this...

Aight. Thanks for the opinion. I'll see what I can do when I'll have some free time

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price. Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 - $109.99 | 33% off on Amazon This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
