As you may have gathered I don't use Altdesk, but I've put a skin together to match the Watertight theme ~ but I don't know if it works! Anyone prepared to check it out if I mail them the zip?
Thanks.

I use Altdesk, micke. I can give a whirl if you want.

Thanks Liderc, I've sent it to Littleweseth. My ISP doesn't allow me to remote link to files ( as you know ) so I can only mail the zip ~ and you haven't shown an email address ~ very cagey
Besides you're busy playing the guitar

HAHA... Very true, micke. I guess I can put down the guitar long enough to PM you my email address.

It's nice, micke, just a couple of suggestions, though. You may want to make the gradients on the bars a little lighter or make the current desktop highlighter brighter. The highlighter is a little hard to make out against the dark gradient. The other thing is that there is a pink aura around the entire skin meaning that, if you were/are using photoshop, anti-aisling is turned on. Unfortunately, to get rid of that aura, you may have to redo the theme with anti-aisling turned off to get rid of the aura. Other than that, it's quite nice.

Oh! dear!
If I alter the gradient it won't match the rest of the theme. I'll try putting another layer underneath to neutralise the antialiasing ~ which is part of the gradient.
Thanks Liderc, I'll get on it

No problem, micke. The gradient may look better with the rest of theme. With my current setup it's a little more prominent then what it may be in a darker theme.
