This Week in Skinning - February 16th

Skin Roundup for 2-16-07

What a busy week this has been with the release of DeskScapes and the official launch of Dream.Wincustomize.Com.  Animated wallpapers have been the talk of the community, and if you have Vista Ultimate, you need to download DeskScapes.

Even though animated wallpapers are the "buzz" this week, that doesn't leave any other skins out in the freezing cold.  There have been some fantastic submissions in the last couple of weeks, and looking at some of the previews in the "work in progress" thread, there are some exciting skins coming up.


Deep Ocean
in Dreams
by inspiredORANGE

For some strange reason I just happen to like animations of water.  Regardless of my reasoning this is a smoothly animated video that is easy on the eyes and looks great on the desktop.

There were many submissions this week that is was very hard to choose some to feature, especially in the Windowblinds section.  So be sure to check the galleries because you don't want to miss out on some of the submissions from this past week.

Thanks again to all the skinners, your work is greatly appreciated!  See you next week.

This is why I like ID's weekly post of the highlighted goodies. Sometimes you just dont get the time to see all the new stuff.
Cheers to all this week.
