ok well I'm still confused but I am gonna start what I said I was gonna do.
One of the latest skins I downloaded was Dark Shine by Sunx. I am currently using Black Glass windowblind by Butch123.
Dark shine looks sharp against the black translucent skin. The reds really stand out and the graphics are very nice.
I find that while I like this IP , it's not one I will use with many WBs because the red just doesn't work with certain skins.
I have looked in my themes list and noticed that I have a tendancy to download the more quirky packages and WBs . I'm not sure why this is, but it's there.
I like the originality of these themes and find that for the most part, they can mix and match well.
oh, word to the wise, the new Icon Packager build, includes a field you can click to skew the icons in certain ways. Now I don't know if this is a Vista only thing and that is why it doesn't like to work right , or not ,but I have found that if you select one of the skew fields there(it's in colors) it will create Icons with jagged edges and it will literally mirror the images so they appear with letters or numbers backwards.
Now for Black Glass. I like the "clear" version that Butch123 made and was hoping the black glass would be like that with a nice smokey look. It's close but it isn't quite as nice as the Clear one is.
The thing I like about the clear WB is , I change wallpapers every hour, and with Clear, because the background shines through, it's like having a different WB everytime there is a change. This really satisfies my urge to change things so often, I think that's why it's one of my favorites.
