Mike, I use XP 90% of the time. I'm still an XPer. I use what I like. I still like XP. I just dual boot Vista and now Win 7 solely to skin them, also.
I'm confused though. You did make icons for it, you just left the control panel one blank. Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't. I just don't like to download or purchase a skin, that still has those awful default icons showing. They stick out like a sore thumb. If I pay for something, it better be 100% skinned. The freebies, I'll let slide.

Kevison, this was made with Vista in mind. It fully supports XP though.
z71, I must apologize. I misunderstood which small shell icons you were referring to. I was talking about the small pics inside the shell pane, but you were talking about the small icons on the shell bar. You are correct, I did intend to use a single icon for all of them, but I apparently overlooked the control panel one. Sorry about that.

Mike, that's OK. Like you, I too leave the small pics blank, most of the time. Yes, I was referring to the small icons, not the small pics.
No harm done. This is now my default skin.

Wow,very nice indeed. I like dark skins and have loads of walls that will go well with this. Thanks a bunch!!

Thank you for this. Should be fun to apply texture to it.

A big thumbs up for staying on top of the Subscriber skins.
As always, a Mike B skin doesn't disapoint.

vStyler, I was aware of that. I skin the large shell icons in case the user has explorer backgrounds disabled. I personally prefer the explorer background to the shell pics on XP.
z71, I dual boot XP solely so I can skin it. I asked if the small shell icons were a usability issue because, otherwise, I'm not sure why you'd ask me to skin them for you from now on.
