'Celebrating' skin number 500!

from WinCustomize Forums

Today I finished my skin number 500. \o/
I started on my first skin, a WinAmp skin, back in 1998 but never completed it. (It looks -shit-)
Since then I've made skins for 52 different applications of various sorts, some of which most of you have never even heard about. ;-)
My favorite was WinAmp for which I've made 30 skins, before I got into Windowblinds. From 2003 - 2006 I ended up making 56 WBs.
I quit active skinning back in February 2006 after finishing the 5imple WinAmp skin.

Since then I've 'discovered' RightClick (in 2008) which sorted rekindled the skinning-bug. I have released 23 RightClick skins, but have made 73 in total. I only skin for personal use now. All the RightClick skins I've made are based on other skins, mainly WindowBlinds.
You can see a few on my unreleased RightClick skins in the desktop screenshot below - which also shows my first completed WindowBlinds, WFO, also unreleased, finished back in late 2003 shortly after I got headhunted to the Wincustomize Mod-crew. :)

I can't begin to imagine how many hours you've logged on your pc(s).

Enough to spark a divorce - which eventually led to me quitting skinning.
