Sup all! Just wanted to introduce myself a bit. I've been reading these forums for awhile now but this my first post. Instead of posting a useless first comment I figured I share a theme I've been working on the last couple days!
I made it using LimeWire Pro 4.16.2. It has Windows Aero style colors and new images for folders, buttons, media player, search, ect. and the menu is a lot more visible. Basically anything editable was changed a bit. Hope you like it and any comments on things you like/dislike are welcome!
Note: I haven't tested this skin on older versions of LimeWire but I do know you need a Pro version for this skin work correctly. I tested this skin on a regular version, old and new, and it simply does not work unless your using a Pro version.
