Very nice Work!

This skin looks great on my home system and especially on my laptop.
I particularly like the reflective effect that you made on the Main toolbar and on the various tabs.

Adrian Bell 24. August 2006, 18:27

Very good, one small point though. Why doesn't the "New Page" button have a blue glass background like the rest?

|Addict 24. August 2006, 19:31

nice...thx

Alexei 24. August 2006, 23:08

Ooo la la, I am loving the apple-esque glossiness!

LPG 25. August 2006, 08:42

Thx all for comments

!
About "New Page" button
This button and trash icons on Tab bar line have a simple style.
Buttons on Address bar have a blue glass background.
If don't place "New Page" button close to blue glass buttons all must looks fine

Best. Skin. Ever.

brisso99 29. August 2006, 18:23

I've never found a skin worth commenting on before, but this is wonderful. Very classy, easy on the eye and ergonomic.

ID 29. August 2006, 21:57

Good skin!
Wish: to add more original icons, that would not be repeating.
We wait for the new version

Murxx 31. August 2006, 20:36

i switched from the ''Windows Media Player 11'' to this one and it looks much better. very good work!

but there's one small issue: when you click on a menubutton and hold the mousekey, there is a grey background in the upper half of the button (see screenshot)

http://files.myopera.com/Murxx/files/bild001.jpg

LPG 31. August 2006, 23:54

Murxx, this little bug was removed
check it now
+ new search icon

Murxx 1. September 2006, 17:50

i re-downloaded the skin (still v1.0), but the grey background is still there, only a little bit smaller.

Marek 2. September 2006, 00:15

THIS SKIN IS COOL ^^ i like black skins :] but this is awesome

LPG 2. September 2006, 18:37

When I have seen as a lot of memories uses this skin (~ 30 mb

)
I have made some changes and now he uses only 2 mb

Marek 3. September 2006, 15:42

LPG how did you made this changes ??

LPG 3. September 2006, 21:09

I cut size on one background img.
only one visual change:
field where you see info about downloading file don't have gradient now

LPG 3. September 2006, 22:05

Murxx, I made this "grey background in the upper half of the button" end on one line to "Main bar" gray background.
maybe in two days I'll change this button completely

PrincessMisery 6. September 2006, 19:54

Wow, this is really nice. I love the shiny effect.

ID 7. September 2006, 09:02

В чем отличие версии 1.1 от 1.0?

LPG 7. September 2006, 10:49

identify, никаких существенных отличий нет. Новый фон нажатой кнопки и новое выделение боковой панели. Изменений немного поэтому переход в версии (1.0 -> 1.1) минимальный.

Murxx 8. September 2006, 19:46

i like the new pressed-button-effect, it's perfect now

zipo 10. September 2006, 20:20

hello i cant download this skin why ?

ID 11. September 2006, 02:01

Надо подправить цвет: http://id.ultranet.ru/bag.png

LPG 11. September 2006, 06:02

identify, исправил. Возможно скоро изменю все остальные иконки.

zipo, I don't know, maybe it site problem.

法师 11. September 2006, 06:04

rss icon is not good.change it better.

thx .

LPG 11. September 2006, 07:57

亡灵法师, rss icon changed.

Thomas Brock 20. September 2006, 19:57

Godlike! :-*

pyramid 22. September 2006, 05:04

Excellent skin. Good work!

amoebios 4m 24. September 2006, 14:30

Looks great on my Acer laptop! Perfect for glossy notebook screens.

My vote for Best Black Skin AND Best Dark-themed Skin!

Sverre Moe 24. September 2006, 19:39

Great skin. Only one thing I do not like. "The reflective effect that you made on the Main toolbar and on the various tabs". Please remove it, or make another skin without it.

delvina 2. October 2006, 23:49

i LAVVVVV it! thanks!

tosbsas 6. October 2006, 20:05

any chance to get a version with small Icons - like the giy with the wmp11 player skin has done. I have Icons already set to 40% but I would like the smaller

Thanks and - GREAT SKIN

The_Judge 18. October 2006, 11:12

I love the skin. Good stuff. Two minor gripes though.

1. Would prefer the rewind and fastforward buttons to more distinguishable from the normal forward and back buttons.

2. Because the font is in white Ctrl-Tabbing is a tad annoying. You can't see which tab is which unless you highlight it because the white font doesn't show up on the white background. If this can be changed somewhere by the user, my apologies.

Great skin still though!

Alexei 22. October 2006, 05:25

Excellent skin for my glossy Inspiron

One correction must be made, though. When I try to block contents of a website, the message bar on top does not have a clearly identifiable font. In fact, it looks like the text is not there at all... But this is just a minor annoyance.

Anton 22. October 2006, 13:52

Great skin! but... how i can create a own skin? (Question for Author)
отличный скин! но... как эти скины делать? (вопрос автору)

George Arthur III 28. October 2006, 11:49

this is Amazing...

i would like to know if you have, can make, know how, or know where, i can download this as a skin for the whole darn XP interface..?

i want Every window in my standard xp luna gui to be this skin..!

i just love it...

How do i do this...?

just installed yesterday the window blinds, and searched and search for this type of skin...
no luck with that... give some Help over here....

so i downloaded the yahoo widgets, that's simular and gives me something on my desktop, but Nothing compaired to your expertise... you are Right on Que with visual ecstacy...!

Hope we can figure something out with this...
i know it would hit the download arena like a nuclear explosion...

fairyanna 29. October 2006, 06:10

"hello i cant download this skin why ?"

I couldn't until I disabled Proxomitron.

LPG, this skin is SO awesome, thanks! I feel like I'm using a computer from one of the CSI shows, except your color scheme is easier on the eyes =^)

wahnsinn 30. October 2006, 17:56

BeeeeUtiful!! The gloss is so gorgeous I could just lick it.

lol, this skin is appropriately named, imho.
Thank you

spud 31. October 2006, 00:15

Looooove it on opera, but I use firefox a lot, so adapt it for firefox 2.0 please

J.D. 2. November 2006, 08:43

WOW!
I love that shiny black skin, a perfect combination with my Windows XP style in silver.

E X C E L L E N T !

Thanks for your great work

Alexei 9. November 2006, 05:45

I think it looks best in WinXP Media Center Edition, so much of yummilicious glossiness! I am surprised my eyes don't hurt

i-VTec 24. November 2006, 17:12

The Judge said:

1. Would prefer the rewind and fastforward buttons to more distinguishable from the normal forward and back buttons.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Great work on the skin,i downloaded it today and its really nice!I noticed the button issue ^^ and i tried to remake those 2 buttons with photshop.Here's what came up:

http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m106/i-VTech/Operabuttons.jpg

I think it's better now...If you want,u can download those buttons from here:

Rewind: http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m106/i-VTech/rewind.png
Fast Forward http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m106/i-VTech/fast_forward.png

Add them to the "buttons" folder inside the skin's .zip and u'r done.

yksyks 30. November 2006, 13:48

This is really a terrific skin, however, the tab menu (ctrl-tab or right-click scroll) displays white text on white background. (I'd post a screenshot, but don't know how.)

andy heere 10. December 2006, 16:37

super skin!

jusa 26. December 2006, 21:39

I don't seem to like dark colored skins but this is something else.
Classy and glossy. Just add gold color scheme and it's... too much

Thank you !

Greg 8. January 2007, 17:47

Amazing. Thanks.

raymund 1. February 2007, 10:54

Great looking skin. My favorit!

chrissi1002 3. February 2007, 02:52

best skin ever!!! now i need a taskbar and xp theme that fits with this skin.
lgp do you have or can make one?

toomuchgreentea 7. February 2007, 03:23

@chrissi1002
This goes with MS Zune skin rather well. Give it a try

ID 9. February 2007, 15:05

Hi LPG.

Нашел небольшие бреши с цветами.

1)Если пользуешься мышиными жестами, выбор вкладок: правый клик+скрол.

п.с. если не понятно сделаю скриншот.

2) По правому клику мыши => блокировать содержимое - не видно надписи "Щелкните на элементе..."

Pramod Ghuge 9. February 2007, 21:42

loox so amazing.. fantastic job

andish182 23. February 2007, 09:19

Lix is the best Opera skin ever!

Domerich 11. March 2007, 11:23

great stuff

thx

kittu 23. March 2007, 15:50

problem: cycling to previous/next page using ctrl-tab or using the mouse gesture is very bad. At any given time, only one page's title is visible in the cycling menu. The rest of the titles are colored with the same as background color and hence not visible.

Sebastian 15. April 2007, 08:53

Od kilku miesięcy używam tego wystroju i nadal jest "świeży". Szukam innych, ale utrzymują się na ekranie zaledwie przez parę godzin. Polecam.

Gonzalo 25. April 2007, 19:45

Simply exelent!

Jim 26. April 2007, 16:21

This is the best looking skin I've seen! Excellent work

Axel 9. May 2007, 19:21

Very nice. One thing: Block content dialog doesn't show clicked element names.

ragavpaynee 14. May 2007, 17:46

Cool play of words

LiX = Slick

Anyway, its awesome. It matches with my new XP skin.

EJ902 31. May 2007, 15:16

To date this is the only skin I've used on Opera for a long time (not that the others I tried weren't good, but they didn't blend in as well with my windows theme as this one). Very nice job.

exee 5. June 2007, 15:29

Очень чёрная и контрастная..

flyingmonkey456 25. June 2007, 19:19

I think it looks great! You should make one with red buttons!

Alan Robinski 27. June 2007, 00:04

try it with a different color scheme! (go to view>customise>skin>color scheme)

Mark 6. July 2007, 07:51

Verrry Nice! Thank you!

my wish list...I wish the scroll bar was translucent blue also:)

Sk8r644 9. July 2007, 02:55

Awesome skin! it is just my style.

Adam 21. July 2007, 03:43

AMAZING skin, i love it. i tryed TONS of skins beofore i found one that looks this good. Thanks!

Peter 17. September 2007, 21:49

Very, very nice. Using it in Opera 9.50 Alfa

ღೋCupcake Blogೋღ 19. September 2007, 16:57

Love this one..using it! thanks

Twistyd Morticia 3. October 2007, 09:48

I am new to Opera browser and have been going through the skins trying them all, this is my favorite one! This will be a perma-skin, totally love it!

Jon 3. October 2007, 17:51

this skin is the best!

Viresse 22. October 2007, 18:57

Its my lovely theme! Thanks!

Pmal 27. November 2007, 14:40

This is the best ever and forever.Very good work!!

Ralph 23. December 2007, 20:11

Great!
This skin is perfekt.
Thank you.

Jenn 3. January 2008, 01:29

This is my fav. I would like to see this one in other colors. My fav. I think are the buttons, the arrows and the refresh cuz they are just the perfect size since i have low vision. WOULD love to see it in purple

but you did great

moe3 18. January 2008, 00:31

I'm using this skin on Opera 9.5 (kestrel) and the ctrl+tab does not have a transparent background but rather a black on white apperance. Totally fixes the problem when used on other versions of Opera. Hopefully when they release the final version of kestrel this will still be tha case.

diana pomponio 20. February 2008, 23:56

thanks for this skin, but for some reason i cant keep it on .. every time i turn off my computer i have to re-down load the skin.. how can i keep this for ever, i love it..

otinanai 24. February 2008, 17:58

Wow !! Great skin m8
Would suggest a backround picture @ speed dial like aurora or sthng similar
Anything else looks great
Thnx

Set Me Ko 26. February 2008, 18:26

Nice Work!!!

Thanks...

4eva 5. March 2008, 01:45

Not bad, but I thought the stop/refresh button was animated when loading a page with the original skin. This one does nothing.
apart from that, it's not too bad, takes a little getting used to though.

4eva 6. March 2008, 00:25

New thought.. would not allow me to edit original coment:

Great Skin for Vista users. Looks even better when you change the colour scheme to system. This really allows it to blend into vista and look as though it is apart of it.

Richard 21. March 2008, 20:35

Best skin EVER!

Works also perfectly with a customized black WinXP.

Leopold Serjanko 30. March 2008, 16:28

Схема хороша, но, как заметил выше moe3, имеется серьезный баг при прокрутке вкладок по Ctrl+Tab. Видны только иконки вкладок, но не текст, за исключением той, что под курсором. Пробовал сменить цветовую схему - не помогает

Только moe3 ошибается, когда связывает этот баг именно с версией 9.50. У меня наблюдается тот же эффект под Opera 9.26 release, так что весьма вероятно, что баг останется и при всех последующих релизах.

masterofopera 24. April 2008, 08:10

this is the original, it is incompleete (some icons in mail).

ipred 24. April 2008, 11:54

Excellent skin.
Bravo !

aesivert 11. May 2008, 18:08

very nice skin in deed :-)

PeaceDestroyer 4. June 2008, 13:03

One of the best skin I have seen around, indeed.

If you may let me give you an advice: when using CTRL+TAB to cycle beetween pages you can only see the page name you are on currently, the other names can't be seen unless you select it. If you correct that your skin wolud be almost perfect to me.

Greetings!

amaZulu 7. June 2008, 15:54

LPG, отличный скин. Спасибо большое за работу. Чертовски приятно глазу.

Loceka 15. June 2008, 13:05

AWESOME!!!

AWESOME!!!

MadCoder 26. September 2008, 09:11

People, if you are ever going to use linux/bsd/solaris, try this skin with darkside theme for E17 (www.get-e.org, exchange.enlightenment.org). Opera looks just like part of desktop style with it and it rocks=) thanks for design=) However, it would be cool to make those menus like file, view etc white on black. I understand that it is a QT option, but maybe there is a chance...

meedin 19. December 2008, 02:36

Another right here!
Happy I found it for the new Opera-Version (since i was a fan for quite a while).

Just one thing I d like to change: the new bigger page-buttons of the standard style are nice and would fit in very well as far as i am concerned.

Thx

popcity 21. December 2008, 15:49

This is my favorite...

Destinny 8. January 2009, 19:10

IM SIRACNA!THIS IS MY FAVORITE TOO!!!

taylorp 26. February 2009, 16:26

i too would like to see a design on the speed dial. use that awesome shiny blue you have on the tabs. great design...love the high polish finish!

one-of-the-sheep 8. March 2009, 11:20

Beautiful,one of my favourites...

TeleBruce 14. March 2009, 02:52

The best I've used so far!
Any chance of another version with a darker background for the speed dial?

Glenn Schwartz 25. May 2009, 20:21

Brilliant

Galileo 26. August 2009, 14:08

If the original developer or someone who can do, can make the changes for this to fit the new Opera 10 with the menu bar hidden and without the border around the buttons
