I'll make you a deal.  I'll test your skin for XP if you'll test my skin for Vista (I should be done with mine in another week or two).

Bump! would be great if i could get this going today so i can get it uploaded to the galleies..

Great! ill be mailing it to you soon....

wow cool skin. cant wait to add to my collection

sorry guys, got stuck making some animation, on its way now

This skin looks really wicked, can't wait till you upload it and we can use it, bloody awesome my friend

Maybe you don't have half century-aged eyes!      I tried to make a screen shot of it, and for some odd reason, the header doesn't seem as dark in the Photoshop JPEG as it does in my Mozilla Thunderbird e-mail program, so it just look like I'm delusional (or blind..or both) when I say the font is hard to see.  I'm using 1024 x 786 resolution (I'm a little behind in the times on monitor size and, of course, I'm still on XP.) The icons in the system tray seem rather tiny, too, which again, isn't a problem if you're not suffering with presbyopia (a/k/a geezer eyes).  

Also, when I mouse over the "All Programs" part in the start menu (more programs in Skin Studio), it totally blacks out and looks like this:    

I wouldn't consider that a "fault" per se, but it might be something more discriminatory judges would nail you on.

Hmm that mouse over the text is green.... here anyway.. its black mouseover with green fonts instead of an image there and i see the icons in more programs is to much to the left....

the tabs in ie is skinned only works in ie7+6? also the selection.. where it is black over your browser target that is supposed to be green.... with black text. The bookmark field(?) text i dont know if it is changeable.. its the toolbar background.. and ofc the explorer navigation buttons is not aligned but i dont think that is possible to correct, think i read about it in another thread?

Systemtray icons should not change size... neither quicklaunch... they stay the same witchever skin you use:)

And it looks like the taskbar buttons arent displayed correctly but cant be sure can u give me a full screenshot?

Im redoing all fonts to a green color... ill send you a copy later on see if it works better...

 

And check if you are running sRGB(the most commonly used) color profile on your monitor... and calibrate...

And it might be lighter here for me because im on a LCD...

Great! thanks for the fullscreen it sure looks trippy in such a low res haha

I can see that your user name is off need to correct that

And damn those logoff/shutdown buttons are ugly and wrong color! need to redo them so they look ok haha

Dont worry im sure its the skin i havent had the possibilty to make it XP perfect yet! but we are on the way there

Thanks for all the help!

 

btw how do you like the cubes on the startmenu kinda makes it hard to concentrate on what you are doing haha but the look cool anyway

I tried it on xp last night, and decided to wait until I could see it on Vista, since that's how you built it.

Now that I've seen it on Vista, I have to agree about the dark on dark text, particularly in the menus. Also, the light gray text on dark gray background in the navigation bar has a nice contrast,until you mouseover the nav bar--then the nav bar becomes a brighter gray, and the text gets lost.

I'll try it again on xp tonight and let you know what I find there.

Mirsguy, ill send you the updated file
