well if you're talking about windowblinds, microsoft has forced the authors and the site to take down the good ones. *cough* kol *cough*

LOL that IS kol's skin. i can tell for many reasons (same name, beta 1 and beta 2 subskins, black, silver, and glass colors, and alternate start bars). plus if you go to the link for the authors site, many of the wallpapers posted there are works by kol (all the strange world walls). can you tell i'm a fan of his?

jemaho's skin is pretty nice, but i use large icons and the start menu is horribly misaligned with vista 1.5 (his latest, i believe). plus i like the black and silver themes that kol included as a nice alternative to transparency.

I'm surprised those links haven't been removed.

The one to Kol's skin has been. If Microsoft wishes it to be removed then it is and will be removed from here, including links. If and when the situation appears discriminatory towards Wincustomize.com then that may change...

i too have say that Jemaho's Vislumbre 5308 is freekin awesome?
i can not understand though why those skins never show up here.....they do it only seems to be in screenshots?

weird i think....most communities span into other ones and so on....so really to surprized to not see those skins here as well...

"i use large icons and the start menu is horribly misaligned"
mine was too til i asked and got the fix!!
right click desktop/properties/appearance/advanced/ choose icons from the drop down menu...change the size to about 37 which is what i use! PRESTO!
seems about right to me! (hope that werks fer you)

i like the white vista skin which can be found at DeviantArt as well (it has no gloss feature though) Advali V3 is quite nice as well as Aero Style, Longhorn Percept and some of the older skins that looked like early builds of Longhorn are nice too...check out Jade and Longhorn Slate 4051.
