Here's the download for anybody who is willing to give her a spin.

It's already very good.
On vista it already looks superb, the roll-ups meet perfectly, animations on start panel are great as is start button and the all programs scrolls are cool too, overall it is outstanding already. Scrollbar just tad hard to see is only slight problem.

You didn't have to go that far, but I'm glad you did. I didn't know what was supposed to be animated or not; I just reported what I saw.
Thanks for fixing the scroll bar.
karen thats absolutely amazing....a great piece of art, super cool to look at, and the animations are awesome too hun....your great

I'm using it right now, and I absolutely love the way that it's going! Works beautifully so far under Windows 7 RTM, I might add... Here's a screenshot...

The wallpaper is actually Deskscapes... It's Dream Machine by Master Baron with the textured effect. The ObjectDock skin was designed by DragonXP on DeviantArt, and the icons were applied with IconPackager, and are from a set again, available on DeviantArt, from Samantha-Wright.
Karen, if you're pretty sure you're done with the start panel, shoot me whatever graphics ya got, PSD and PNG preferred, and I can start the DX. Looking good!!
I have a few adjustment to make to the Vista substyle, and I'm almost done with the grunge substyle for XP. I bought a laptop yesterday because I have ill family members up north and I can't afford to not be working if I have to attend a funeral or spend some time up there helping out with the recovery of those battling cancer. The laptop has Vista on it so now I know where to make those corrections, plus because it's new, it's elligible for the Windows 7 upgrade when it comes out. I'm going to miss XP, but it's time to embrace the new.
I think it may be 2 to 2-1/2 more weeks until she's ready for upload.
well karen your doing a bang up job hunnie and im glad you got you a new laptop and its good to see your gonna get the win 7...THIS SKIN ROCKS

Lookin great Karen, really a step up in ur skinning so far, only thing I'll gripe about is getting the cogs to rotate on a smoother axis, unless thats intentional,
Keep up the fast learning curve ! ![]()
Sorry to hear about your family illness. I shall be thinking of you.
Same here. When my new PC is fully functional XP will be gone for good. I shall miss it, but will be upgrading to W7, so working with Vista for a while won't seem so bad.

OK, I've come up with a problem -- not all that noticeable at first, but it's bugging me. The top of the window frame won't go all the way up to the top of the monitor. How do I fix that?
Personally, I wouldn't want it to. But I'm not making it...lol. I wish I could help you, Karen, but I'm a noob at blinds.
Grunge style XP - 95% finished, (wallpaper is my own creation).

Sheesh! This skin is dynamite, Karen! ![]()
Thanks, Seth. I'm shooting for "outstanding" -- with a little luck I'll achieve that.
Wow, what a great additon this will be to the Theme Manager Suite Library. ![]()
I like this WB a lot!! The animation is great, but the design and the warm colors are what I like best. It is interesting without being overly ornate. Great job!
Sounds like I'm going to need another email
Cool, thanks Karen! ![]()
