Hi very good skin the only thing that i didn't like is the orange selection bar it 'would be cool without the glassy effect on it.
You have speak about c++ programming i don't understand all the skins part are maid in the xml not in c++?

Looks nice
The only things I would change are the X for rating and selected text to black.
I don't think there is enough contrast between the orange background and gray text.

yeah it look better like this but
+1 for a dark text on the selection

I like the "crossratings" icon it feet very well with the mood of the skin.
I really like and see all the work accomplished on the tabs.
I enjoy the good contrast on all the area of the skin.
I LOVE the seek bar !
Something disturb me for the nex/before buttons.But they are good anyway.

For the black text on selection (if i remember it's  dependant of another colour :/

VERY GOOD JOB sirgeo  ;D

In the <MAINFRAME> section look for these and alter the offset for buttons
Code: [Select]
<Entry Name="CloseButton" Bitmap="Close.png" NumberImages="5" Alignment="2" OffsetX="-8" OffsetY="1" />
<Entry Name="MaximizeButton" Bitmap="Maximize.png" NumberImages="5" Alignment="2" OffsetX="-34" OffsetY="1" />
<Entry Name="RestoreButton" Bitmap="Restore.png" NumberImages="5" Alignment="2" OffsetX="-34" OffsetY="1" />
<Entry Name="MinimizeButton" Bitmap="Minimize.png" NumberImages="5" Alignment="2" OffsetX="-60" OffsetY="1" />

Not sure what part of the line you want to change? (Text, background when selected, etc)

Well i want to change the white horizontal line, and don't know how to do it,
and about the buttons is just for when i start to use the small windows (option) seems that buttons is not in the right position.

I don't know of a way to change the group heading underline nor have I seen a skin that it was not the same color as text so there may not be a setting for it.
As far as the buttons I don't know what could be going on because my buttons stay the same relative to the right side of the skin in standard and slim view no matter how small I make it down to the minimum allowed in the "main.xml"
Have you set a minimum width and height?
<MAINFRAME>
   <Data MinimumWidth="650" MinimumHeight="400" DefaultWidth="1024" DefaultHeight="768"/>

Re: Group heading underline:

You can get around this limitation by using a graphic for the list grouping. Check out the <List> area of XML for a skin such as Noire for an example. If you want to keep it simple, just create a flat image that matches the list background colour and add a defining line of your chosen colour along the bottom.

If its not too much to ask, could different colour themes be made available?

I can just see it now.

Electric Lime Green, Electric Tron Blue. Fits the theme well. :D

This would be a nice addition, but I do like the orange.
