I like! Nice desktop for Halloween. What wallpaper did you use?
For some reason when you download it, Stardock Central cannot install it(I think because the extension is a .zip instead of .wba but for people having trouble with it, extract the file into your windowblind skin folder and double click on the .wba inside that folder, and it should install itself.

Thanks. It is a .zip file because I included a font with the wb.

my pet peeeeeeeeeve! ya make a dark theme and leave these stark white windows backgrounds that blind you when everything else is dark! it's simple - go to classic windows in skinstudio and change it - i always make my windows match the theme. 
the rest looks great - please update - not everyone has skinstudio like you and me.

Not too bad for a first. You did leave a few things undone, mostly colors. A little fine tuning and this one will be pretty nice.
One tip. You can put the font in the skin folder and choose it in "Fonts to Install" in the Misc section in SkinStudio. That will allow you to have a single wba file instead of two files in a zip.

Personally, I like the white background. It makes working with a theme easier in word processing programs. More usable that way in my opinion. In case anyone didn't know, the default background is white, like the printer paper. But, I'm sure that all are welcomed to change it for personal use. It's tough doing dark themes for this reason and others. Good job for a first, Island Dog. (Hint: Work a little with feathering and antialiasing on the buttons.)

I like the white background also! 
What is the name of the background and do you have a link to it?

Halloween is my favorite holiday, so I've already been looking forward to seeing what new skins we'd get this year. I like this one quite a bit, from the screenshot.
However, I have one question, and a slight favor to ask...your .wba file is named "Creepers," but when it installs, it installs a WB named "Halloween." There's already a skin in the library here at WC named "Halloween," so is there any chance you could change your file so that it installs as "Creepers"? I'd really appreciate it!

So that is what happened to the file! 
I was trying to find it to see if it had a wallpaper in it. I finally moved the .wba file to the windowblind directory and clicked on it twice to install it. Now it is under Creepers. I just made sure to install the font to the font folder.

This theme doesn't install properly for me. I tried Ladysarajane's suggestions and even tho it says 'Creepers' in my WB directory, what shows up is an older Halloween theme I have by the same name. Can you please create a .wba file so that it will show up under 'Creepers' and auto downloads & installs properly?

Sorry for the delay in fixing it, but I have had some hurricanes to deal with here. I appreciate everyone's comments and suggestions.

Thanks for fixing 'Creepers', Island Dog, it now works for me too. Hope you're recovering from the hurricanes & didn't sustain much damage.
