Great :D but I think it needs modifications. At first it is a little bit too dark I think. And the selection in the right column is not ok, color is the same as the background. If you want to make the background more dark, you need to change the selections bipmaps too. Good idea for the user picture... |

There is already a skin named Windows 8. Then I think I will name it "Classic Start 8" (in reference to Classic start menu) Is it ok ? |

When I will have a little time I will work on borders, separators, and selection on 2nd column, for a better integration when choosing windows color variation. |

Ok, I will look what I can do. I didn't do it because it doesn't match properly with the windows color. Like GauravK said some tweaks like hue, saturation, brightness controls would be great to do this... |

Cool. Now we just need the Start menu color to more closely match the Taskbar color. I don't really understand... You can define custom colors for taskbar and titlebars in the windows control panel. There is infinite possibilities. How can I do to match exactly with your color ? When I did the skin... |

Yep,
I already tried too to add shadow manually, but it's not possible to do something correct in fullglass mode. It is only OK in fullAlpha mode (but it's not transparent with the desktop). It's why I think it would be easier to control shadow display in the script... |

Hi, I didn't see this forum before. :o Maybe I would not made a skin if I have seen it... I found the default standard skins of Classic shell look not very well in windows 8. I prefer for example Start8 app skin, but I don't want to pay, and I'm used to use classic shell. Then I made a skin like Sta... |
