i really like that Tanger skin, Tom. if i ever install WB again, i'll be sure to get that one. it all hinges on whether or not we can install the skins to a non-boot drive.

With the magic of a custom visual style. :p

 Since windowblinds is not available for 8 yet, I decided to work on visual styles until then.

Unfortunately the start menu does not skin properly with start8, so im using a alternative called startisback(the real start menu) to skin it.

Have Tanger by LightStar on the desktop with some Docks, CursorFX, Xion and Icons I found in the WC Libraries.  This might even look nice with a Thanksgiving Wallpaper.

The DX and Rainy themed skins are by RedneckDude.

I haven't seen a WIP thread for this theme but I would advise slightly lowering the opacity of the retro 'glass' layer... looks a bit blown out...unnatural.

Also... I have to wonder.. how It might look with black title-bar glyphs :)

Love the shade of green tho.. my fave..really works well with black  yay :dur:
