Thank you to kemie for the skin idea and the vast majority of images used!

This really is a beautiful skin. Is this the same version as was on the add-on test site?

A couple of questions concerning a minimalist MM... Is there a way to reduce the thickness of the border on the outside of the window and a way to do the same for the lines between the different panels? I'm thinking of the Songbird skin which has a nice clean feel. If there's a way to do it I'll have a poke around the theme editor and see if I can do it myself.

depends on which window you want to do. that can be set with the code to the object if it shows a border code
in the right frame of the theme engine. but some of the borders are only controlled by windows so no matter what we set them at windows puts them to what it wants. it does that with some of the font styles sizes and colors too. :(

i think its ms's need to control our lifes. which they seem to have that in mind by trying to make us use the online office2010 version which was reported to be the worst app of the year. :x

how can this be a pretty skin? there's nothing there? no monkey's no trees no, no, no, nothing? its just a bunch of boxe's with a slight color to them? its a plain jane skin. where's the customized stuff. where's the flashing lights where's the bells and buzzers, where's, where's, where's the... oh i'll stop it's just a well made skin thats all but its a plain jane. i want smoke and mirrors and lights and fire and and and and, :(

nothing bad with this skin nohitter151 i just need stuff, :)

@ nohitter151 Very nice! I for one would like to see script skins including a tabbed version for Monkey Rok 5.3. Thanks for the great skin.

You can reduce the thickness of the Window borders but you can't reduce the area between panels.

Thanks for the replies rovingcowboy and nohitter151. Can't decide if I'd prefer thinner borders now but I'll probably change it and see. I reread the title so answered my own question about the version :oops:

Very nice skin - thank's
I like the blue stars, as I commented on one of your other skins I thought the rating stars were too small, but these are great. Not sure if they are bigger, but they are definitely more defined to my eyes.

Only negative for me, is the tool bar separators, they seem to blended into the tool bar colour and so have disappeared, on my monitor at least anyway. It's not a biggie and doesn't detract at all from the overall calm look of this skin.

I think I have found new default skin. Like it very much, but like paulmt I would like to see Separators visible. My 26" Monitor and 1920x1200 I also can't see them.

It looks that the toolbar separators are missing altogether. Don't know how I missed that!

I'll improve on that in the next version.

My apologies! Good to know that you're still around, and many thanks - the skin would never have existed without your ideas and images. Thank you!

I joined the forums only to express my love for this skin. It's beautiful for someone with OCD like myself. :D Keep up the good work!
