Post your screenies and new skins, people!

Psst, you wouldn't happen to know where one could get one's hands on said wallpaper?

Coming to a desktop soon "Kansas City Chiefs" (Super Bowl Winners), support for Windows 10 and Windows 11, going through final testing now, and it's Free...
I don't think you're doing yourself any favors by making this theme so specific to a Super Bowl Winner
Of course, it's still very beautifully rendered, and I don't know of there will be a version that's "cleaned" from Kansas City Chiefs logo and such.
I love it in the sense that it very much reminded me of the Amora theme by David Lanham.. in a sense with those red and near white colors.. not the styling.

Why? What's wrong with that if that's the reason? I don't think creating a free skin was meant to do himself some favor.
Thanks for the skin, Don. 
Not a Chiefs fan, but I like the skin.

You're right, I wasn't thinking clearly when I wrote that. I never meant any trouble or harm by writing that comment of mine.
Perhaps it stems from a deeper issue I have with branded themes, icons and wallpapers that can't be used outside of their brand.

No problem.
The skin isn't using anything outside of "fan art" which is "fair use".
Trust don5318...he's a Master skinner for good reason and he knows that NFL teams guard their patents zealously. He isn't doing anything illegal. Look at his Gallery. Trust the Gallery Moderators. We would have taken the skin down had we felt it violated "fan art" or "fair useage".
Lastly: Why not give skinning a spin, yourself? The Master skinners will be glad to help you.

Oh, I'm not concerned about the branding - I have seen the beautiful work Don does on other themes. I never intended to touch on anything related to the properties/fair use/fan art of anything NFL or the like.
I trust the mods here and I'm not sure how you thought I was going down that route of not trusting the gallery moderators
I only meant to comment on the use cases on desktops, which by now I think I've dug my already deep hole deeper.
I'll retreat.
With regards to skinning/theming Windows; I keep on suggesting it to myself and others. I just haven't done much on that except some Curtains themes that is half done. I'd have to use Windows full time for it to make sense to make themes for it as just making it in a VM and not enjoying me and other people's themes makes no sense.
And since Curtains isn't for Windows 11 yet, then there's only the behemoth that is Windowblinds which gives me the heeby jeebies (sp?)

A pity you're not a Windowblinds skinner, Mr. Nielsen. You have the eyes for great skinning works, for sure!

I understand your unhappiness with the franchises and their overly zealous, financially driven guarding of their merchandising (ubermerchandising) of their team stuff.
Curtains can't work with W11, and won't. More's the shame, because it was designed to bring more people into skinning. Thank MS for that, too.
I can also well understand your hesitancy in taking on Windowblinds skinning. I wish we had a club in which all the skinners and would be skinners could get together to share the "tricks of the trade", as it were, maybe building skins together, but Forums and posting will have to do in the meantime, I guess.

Perhaps Discord could be a place for that with the occasional live stream where we can join in and follow along? And participate in a more better way than this ancient forum back end.
Thanks for writing .. have a good day.

Call me old fashioned, but I'd love to see it happen on WC...
Have a good one, too.

It does work on Windows 11 Urban1. It may have minor issues of course though that I pray will be resolved by Stardock soon. Overall though, it works fine.
