After a couple of dark themes in a row, I felt it was time to go lighter.
Meet Softer
Thanks guys!
It concerns me in fact........does this look like an essorant rip?
His skins did inspire me when doing this, but I don't want this to end up like a (pale) copy of his work. It doesn't help that I'm using his wall as a backdrop at the moment.
Looks good. Though I can see why you say that Essorant's work inspired this theme, I would not consider this a rip in the least. Carry on, bro! 
Tim! This is just super! Anytime you need a Vista tester, I'm in line!
No its not a rip - you can see the inspiration that is all - pale pastel colours, semicircular ended taskbar buttons, tiny window control buttons and the detailed flourishes here and there. It sure looks great. 
In NO way!
Your styles are distinct. I really didn't see similarity...I wouldn't have had that thought at all.
Now the first name is a completely different matter. You're going to have to change that, Tim. Sorry.
From the title of the thread, I thought it was gonna be about "Male Enhancement" pills.... 
Really nice looking blind! 
btw that grey looks much better now..nice job on texturing the Start menu too.. ya big softy
Excellent, a very nice change. 
I was thinking of something "softer" with my ongoing project.
I almost didn't want to click on this thread. 
Very nice looking, this will be one to add to the personal library for me.
Not in the least....
Yeah....thanks for that tip. It didn't seem as brown on my screen until I tried the taskbar on top (Damn screen gradient 
)
You'll also notice that I'm using Calibri. I see why you favor that font, John. It adds instant refinement to a skin!
Thanks for the support guys!
PS I am aware of the double meaning in the thread title........ 
Looks good from here Tim, can't wait to add this one to my collection!
Thats a good way to put it, its a very refined looking font imo. As for screen gradients, not sure what kind of monitor you have or if your on a lappy but thats THE biggest issue with LCD's I bought a monitor from Office Depot by a Co. named SOYO.. its an LCD but has zero gradients and no issues with viewing angles, basically its a flat screen but looks like a CRT.. not sure how they did it or why no one else that makes LCD's is but its great.
Unfortunately after a couple of years Im having power supply issues with it and although I woud buy another.. The Co. has gone out of business.
Perhaps I can find one online left over stock or something.
Anyway, lookin great, keep up the good work and think more before posting a thread title next time
Change it to Jack...........The Ripper!!!
Sorry Ja...I mean Tim, couldn't resist!!
BTW, It actually reminds me of a vStyler skin called VXP. Dunno why....
tim, no offense but this is THE BEST SKIN you have done to date! i am extremely jealous!!! i LOVE IT!! 
Thanks kittycat!
