Soooo !
I've been asked why there are parts with black text over black backgrounds on my dark themes.
Unfortunaltely, every single dark theme encounters this problem. Some text colors can't be changed (I believe they're hardcoded somewhere, just like the caption button size).
I know it's annoying, but I can't do anything about it. I did my best to get the most text colors to gray, or light gray.
On another note. I'm currently making a new VS, see it here.
I'm quite happy with it. It's called Kiilki.
I'm doing my best on this one to improve the usability. As well as skinning more in-depth, skinning little details (that's something I don't usually bother doing).
The startmenu won't include the right panel, nor the shutdown buttons, NOR the all programs link (see screenshot). Yeah I know most of you will complain, but I won't change it. I made it the way I like it. I'll include Log Off and Shutdown shortcuts, so you can drag/drop them on your startmenu. I recommand using ObjectDock, so you can have your folder shortcuts. And if you need more, you can use the Favourite links panel, on the left of the window.
Oh and. I'm going to install 7 soon enough. So you might expect a 7 version of Kiilki too.
Btw, wtf microsoft?
The startbutton in explorer.exe? Is that a joke?
How about the caption buttons in shell32.dll while they're at it.
God...

I love deviantART.
So.. This has been on my mind for some time now. I can't help but always reflect on how random things you do in your life sometimes have massive repercussions. This scares the heck out of me but it's making my life incredibly exciting, always bringing new things that I'd never expected, and always having me dream about what could possibly happen next.
When I visited deviantART for the very first time, almost 6 years ago, I was just looking for a theme to make my computer look cool, and man, I had no idea what I was stepping into. I remember looking at Turquoise VS by invaderjohn (https://www.deviantart.com/invaderjohn) and being completely blown away by the possibilities that
Another DD? WHAT?
What a surprise, I certainly wasn't expecting that!
I am thrilled to have been awarded my 3rd Daily Deviation, and I am so very grateful for the exposure, faves, and nice comments I'm getting, but it really took me by surprise and I'm not sure I really deserve all of that!
I have been making these themes primarily for myself, for my own enjoyment in a quite selfish way, with the "sharing it to the public" part being secondary most of the time. But this kind of thing just makes me want to do so much more for you guys. It pushes me forward, makes me do my best to come up with something always better than last time, as a sort of "thank you" for
