Good work! This is the first theme that I have tested that correctly handles all of the basic plugins that we we use. I see a few minor things, most having to do with color and button selections and readability, but this is the closest out of the box alternative since umich on v.0.2-stable.

I'd say the most important thing that needs addressed is that the CSS for the address auto-compete appears to be white text on a white background - totally unreadable. Many of the other colors are too pale to be easily discerned as well. The very pale blue for the selection in the message and folder lists is not easy to tell from the normal white background, as one example. Or the buttons for Compose and Reply all again don't stand out against the white background.

But as is, this is the best starting point I've tested in a couple of years. And I've tested a lot of skins...

Wow, AB thank you for the very nice compliment. This is my first theme and I really appreciate your input. I will work on the colors and did not notice the white text on the white background. Im glad you pointed that out. Thanks again.

Hi
Thanks for the theme. It looks and works very nicely, it needs a few tweaks with the white text on the white backgrount but apart from that i'm very imprest.

Keep up the good work.

The white text on white bg has been fixed.

Hi sunny

Can you please send the last skin to makurov[at]gmail.com ?

Regards.

I've finally gotten around to installing and trying out the skin. I love it and I'll keep it on my site.

If there's anything that I would recommend changed, it would be the "Create New", and "Forward Message" icons. White icon, white edge of the icon and white background offer too little contrast for my taste.

Regards.

Silencer · January 25, 2011, 04:13:55 AM

I have to agree with Netset99, those 2 Icons can be barely seen. In addition, raising the overal contrast of the theme would be great.
Some other minor glitches:
- the folder "default" in the "markasjunk" plugin folder is not located inside the folder "skins"
- some dropdown arrows indicating further options are missing (from the search, mark message & further message options icons)
- some icons could blend better with the background

To be honest: for me & for now, the theme doesn't offer enough compared to the default theme, that would justify the price of $17.95.
Anyway, thanx for the tryout! Hopefully we will see more from you!
