Well, it's August, already. Hottest month over with...hoping (against hope) August will be somehow better.
Decided to give tribute to three great Master skinners, and really good people...one of whom is here in memory only, Xiandi (Lady X), PoSmedley, and WebGizmos. They collaborated to create a beautiful skin, my desktop of the month: Xiandi the Windowblind and CursorFX, PoSmedley, the walls, and WebGizmos, the Winstep Xtreme.
We're talkin' Metropolite:
Keep an eye out for this one on my site tomorrow!

Gorgeous skin! What size taskbar are you using, Tom?
Well, the actual full image is 1118 x 42 Doc (top and bottom). But the top and bottom text settings on the taskbar buttons make it 55 pixels tall in the screenshot.
I should have asked "small, medium or large" as it's Start11 on a W11 machine. The Start button is off centered, a bit "high" as I'm using the small task bar. I'll play with it a bit. Thanks, though for your answer, my friend.
edit: Going to the medium sized taskbar fixed it.
Vampthika's The Raven with Sed's wallpaper AbZ Mid 7 (recolored).
I uninstalled WindowBlinds for now. Too many inconsistencies for me, different looks of different programs, black fonts on dark backgrounds (dark mode problem) and the like. It just hurts my eyes an let's my inner aesthetics cry.
It's not anybodies fault (!), given how Windows changed and considering, what we could do with Windows 2000 that was more & more impossible anymore. Very frustrating for me.
Illuminate was everything I hoped it would be...a beautiful skin. I changed the wall a tad, hope Tom forgives me.
You are forgiven Doc! Nice screenshot!
Thanks.

Nice! iLook...and the wall - good combo.
A continuation of my experience theme. This time classic mode. I hope to have all classic colors done eventually. Its a lot of recoloring.
Brick - Complete Desert- Complete Eggplant Lilac Maple Plum Pumpkin Rainy Day Red, White and Blue Rose Slate Spruce Storm Teal Wheat
[High Contrast Modes] <--- These Styles are on the backburner.... High Contrast #1 High Contrast #2 High Contrast Black High Contrast White
Looks good so far, SD.
Maybe a dump question, but can't You let the user do all the recolouring via WB? If I remember right there are definable parts for that?
Yes, however, the colors are not accurate for each classic mode color. Hence me having to make graphics for each substyle. Plus it messes with the start button flag colors.
