Need some WindowBlinds skins
2005-02-19, 10:33 PM #1
Yeah, so I'm getting tired of going through the hundreds of skins on various sites to try and find decent ones, so I'm going to rely on Massassi's (hopefully) good taste and ask you guys to suggest some for me.

Provide the links if you have them, please! :)

Vectorcell, skinplan, pearlthane, extensis, dogmaX.

pearlthane's my current one: it's got a translucent portion of start bar - very pretty :)

I'm liking Vectorcell, keep them coming though! Extensis is sexy too.

Genki, it's Intrastate. It's come with most of the version of WindowBlinds I've used.

I'm using Cyrix:

When you hold the mouse over the start menu, it animates. And the extra button on the top of each window sort of minimizes up, so you can still see the title bar but gets it out of your way. Very useful. :)

i loath that function, takes me time to figure out where my window went, oh and you can do it by right clicking on the title bar too

I love it. I use it ALL the time, and it's one of the things that HAS to be in a skin for me to use it. When all I want to do is see my desktop, it's easier to right-click the titlebar than to zone in on the minimize button, and then afterwards to zone in on it's home in the taskbar.

I can't do that with my mouse, and I don't always want EVERYTHING to dissapear. Besides, I still have to bring everything BACK when I'm done from the taskbar.

Well genkers, that sucks for you, 'cause I'm not gonna stop using my theme any time soon. Cool, slick, neat new features, and I like the style. :p

Vox is a good theme.
As is Copper Deck 2.
Corona XP is awesome.

But I <3 Longhorn Slate 4051.

I am using a Longhorn Firefox theme with it, and it is rocking (sorta, some skin glitches in the Firefox skin. :()

I have the Longhorn one... I loathe it. It's ugly as sin. In fact, I hate most of those because they have hulking big titlebars.

Small = good.

I use an altered simplicity (I tweaked the colors), coupled with litestep's simplicity theme.

Clean desktop

Windows open + context menu (desktop right click)

Speaking of which, parts of this theme are very ugly .. anyone have any suggestions of other themes that might go with litestep's simplicity?
