Your Favorite skins?
Saturday, October 23, 2004 by Michael Brandt | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
When I started skinning this year, I had never touched a paintprogram before. 
Now I have made several skins and I feel like I'm just getting started - there's still so much to learn. 
I would like to say that the reason I started was some very cool and inspiring skins made by some very talented people. Here are the (main) reasons: ( They are still my favorites )
Hellfire by Hippy
Universe Metal by Pixtudio
Avenger by MikeB314
Meltdown by Hippy
Prometheus Black by Hippy
Beacon by MikeB314
Spectre by MikeB314
LightBlue by Alexandrie

Me too, but some seem to come back to my system all the time. You know - some skins you really like and use for a while, - but then you never use them again. Thats not the case for the ones above.

I agree of Hellfire. Hellboy & Hellfire WB skin looks great together.
I'm in between words - WB & Visual Styles.
Toon-XP is my most fav.
Sanrio - Visual Styles. Does this count too?

I have also used visual styles before, but I've been in love with WB since Alexandrie's LightBlue. That was the skin that made me a WB-man.

WindowBlinds are visual styles, not to be confused with msstyles.

Same here...I still love LightBlue even though it's several years old. It's what got me interested in WB.

Finesse Subzero (compact) by ChaNinja
PixOS by Pixtudio
Jinx by Essorant
DogmaX (compact) by brewman
I have recently become a compact start menu buff. The slimmer the better, especially for my notebook.

Some of my favorites are Souluna and PlusMinus by Morphium. 
I am surprised no one has mentioned Morphium or Dangeruss yet!!

What a difficult choice to make. IMO skins are fairly transient things - I get bored of my own quite quickly, which is why I keep making new ones!
Universe Metal, Avenger, PixOS/PixOffice, Colony and Diaspar are a few, but I'd be missing lots which I've used and loved. (Sorry if I missed you out! And yes - Russ made some great skins, now lost in the mists of time... We need a retrospective!)
