Of course not. This is not about you, Alexandrie. It's about people being hypnotized by the two magic letters.
I... must... download...

First of all, let us remember that skinners make skins for themselves first.

Windows XP was just released. People are excited about it right now just as they were exxcited about Aqua.

Alexandrie has made some of the most original skins ever made. And some of her very recent submissions are very original. Consider her "Blue" skin (bleu). There's nothign Windows XPish about that title bar. It's an original design.

Right now, with XP so new, people want skins that handle the XP start bar and that gives an advantage to skin authors that do it. SkinStudio in a week or so should simplify this process.

Moreover, ObjectBar will be able to use WB XP Start bars so that will increase the reason to support it.

Right now I"m running Essorant's Progressive skin. But I have really enjoyed running XP Wood and XP Copperish. They look nice.

I will like them more if they support Smartbars in future revisions.

Skins for XP are fine - it's all of the skins out there that mimic the XP look that I'm sick of.

See i been having xp for a while. But now that support for the skinning of xp is starting to show i want to get some for me. I just like the way u can customize your pc to look like want it. It reflects u on how u design your desktop. Since i aint into skinning and stuff i have to rely on other people. so alexandrie can u help match a wallpaper i have?

This is about the best quote I've seen from a skinner for months

Just matches my opinion, that's all!

Sure Trans, go ahead. I will be here ready to upload at 9am 1st November, so if you are 10 hours in front of me that would make it about 7pm your time. Is that o.k. for you?
