Mine... Skin: "Cinnabar Extreme" (love these colors!) by WebGizmos from Essorant's "Cinnabar"
Wall: "Autumn Sparrows" by teddybearcholla....a simply marvelous wallpaper, Barb.
I feel warm on the cold days looking at this great blend of colors.

This is probably a stupid question (be gentle with me), but why am I seeing some of the screenshots reduced and others full size with horizontal scroll bars?
EDIT: After posting this message, some of the screenshots that were previously full size are now automatically reduced. Errr? I must be having some of that same acid RedNeckDude did on the 'GOTD is gone' thread, hehe

Okay here is mine: WindowBlinds Theme is The BlackBoXX Ultra by BoXXi with some of The BlackBoxx skins.
BoXXi has given me permission do a Theme Manager Suite for this Theme. He has also said that if community skinners wanted to add some additional skins that would be okay. Of course you would need to contact BoXXi to get the graphics and permission.
There is a DX Theme but the Weather portion of it needs to be updated. Just may turn this into a community project if there is enough interest. Check out BoXXi's gallery and see what skins have been done. I kind of think the Theme would make a great Winstep, SysMetrix, Zoomer and Tabbed Docks. What do you say folks?

Yes, I think it would too. But then I'm biased, I love dark themes.

It's a plane's GUI...
All the thingies do.....'stuff'.
All the buttons push....switches turn.....handles pull....and it's about as close to a real one as you can get. [all evolving from 'several' photos].
Here I am....cranked over....at 90 degrees....at 720 knots at 1300 feet [plus change] above Albert Park Lake [Melbourne, Oz....where the GrandPrix is held]....
Heading North-ish, 4 Knot wind over my left shoulder...coolish 54 F outside....1.26 PM, Wednesday...pulling plus 1.5 G hanging off a wing with the throttle at 85%....
It's taken a month [off and on] to get all this working 'right'..... before this I knew next to nothing about XML....now I know even less...
In case anyone's wondering....a typical 'panel.cfg' file will have 30 to 50 'gauges' [thingies in XML that provide 'functionality']....this one currently has 138.... in this 'window'.....there are 22 'windows'....10 different Z-order levels.....
....and it may yet get finished....
For nit-pickers....the HUD is an anachronism....the Thud didn't have one [like that]....
Just to add....for those wondering just how complex these things get.....this one 'cockpit' is 41.9 Meg, comprising 877 files [XML and BMP] ...
