This is my attempt to replace the blue in the standard XP Blue scheme with less garish and muted tones. I realise there are probably hundreds of these themes floating about, but i've never really found one i've been happy with. So I made my own.

Since this is my first theme, I welcome any feedback or criticism.

[edit]: wallpaper not included :P

I am OK with the taskbar you have. If you can't get the think taskbar, no big deal!

Thanks for the feedback! I'm still looking to make changes to it, and the more I use it the more I agree about the system tray. And the desktop background. The selection green, i'm going to make lighter and less garish, more like the green in the Luna Green (homestead) scheme.

I'm not entirely sure how to do a thin taskbar or compact start menu (currently using Photoshop Elements & Stylebuilder trial version) or anything complicated like that, but this was designed mostly for users who wanted a pretty much direct port of Luna over into black.

Desktop background should also be changed to dark gray (green does not look good).

I agree with above. It would be great to have the following enhancements:
- thin taskbar
- different color for the system tray (that goes with the overall theme)
- selection color should be different than the green
- control panel color should be made black (instead of default blue with a touch of gray)

It would looks really great if these changes are incorporated. Other than these items, the theme looks very nice. Great job. Thanks.

Sorry, it's me again, I forgot one thing: The scrollbars color should also be black or grey. Sorry once again for double-posting!
