NOTE: I've neatened it up a bit. I intend to do more, this is by no means the end!

I've decided to continually update this thread with new images. If you have a request, post below. I'll happily have a bash at whatever you want.

Red Neon Downlight:
I've taken my modern blue theme and recolored it a put a kind of shadow or down light. Like a neon under glow.

SMF For Free:
This was highly experimental. In my opinion, it's not one of my greatest, but it's your game.

Man, this is amazing. Thanks for this. I'll probably use the modern one for my game, since my RPG is in like 2069AD.

Hope you make more!

Hey I love the old scroll and would like to use it but would you mind if I altered it just a touch to make the selection box a bit easier to see? I can post the changes here if you'd like.
 
Not bad.. Cool things here. I need to start making my own now for VX. I already made 35 of them for XP. Heh. I like the scroll, and the Earth and Dust. Keep posting them! Weee!
 
Haha, your windowskin styles are just like my ones.
Just keep practising! I started out making window skins based on the old RMXP.net website then all the themes of RMXP.org, all my window skins were for RMXP, in a way you're taking my place and creating for RMVX. Keep it up! Don't stop!
(Simple computer, hehe, I remade all the MacSys and MacOS finder graphics into RMXP windowskins in just the same way!)
Watch out for the stretch and be careful with RMVX's window background overlay, I tend to drop it's transparency right down to below 10%
If you are using Paint to do this (That is what I used to use when I made skins like this) then I suggest you go onto the GIMP and start making window skins for that, also you should study the anatomy of the windowskin, make your own template of what pieces of the windowskin you know work. For example, there is a 2px frame around the selection box and the background and a 4px frame around the skin border that defines where the background ends. Look into that and you can experiment and make then improve window skins.
Thank you so much for doing these windowskins, they aren't great but it is wonderful to see your windowskin skill from the start.
Take a look at my windowskins, you'll see how they have improved as I went on.
