I am rather good with Photoshop and think I have a good eye for UI design, although I've never really designed one. My proposal is... If I create all the images, by creating the UI in Photoshop, and saving each section as a png image file, could somebody else bring it all together as a windowblinds windows xp skin. I want a rather simple slick neutral interface. No (or few) animations, and no bold colors. I'm almost certain I know the answer... (Just learn the software yourself, it's easy and you'll pickup on it really quick).. Na.. I'm not intersted in learning it. I'm not even interesting in skinning for the most part, it's just that I can't find what I'm looking for, so I guess I can create it myself.
Here's a sample of what I whipped up this afternoon.
