You could do that yourself using the Change color feature in Skinstudio.

I think you'll have a hard time finding a true black theme, most are grey/black becasue some of the text always shows up as black, then you get spots where there is text and you can't see it. Try using the Luna theme included with WB and the custom coloring feature. Haven't tried this myself, but I think you'll have more luck with that than finding someone to make you a black luna theme. The time and effort involved in doing WB skins is increasing, especially with 4 coming out. Most authors stick to thier own ideas, because these things take days, weeks, or even months to make.

Try this: Load the skin that you would like to be black. Right click the WindowBlinds icon in the systray. When the config window opens, on the right it says "Change skin color", (that's on WB4). Or if you are using an earlier version, it will be under one of the headings on the left.
So you dont even need skinstudio to change the color of any skin, WB can do it for you.
Have fun!

Sounds like a cool request. I think it could be done but it will be a while before you see it.
