Nice skin! Could you please make a pink one?

Thank you!

Nice skins! You could merge them in a single .skin file with radio buttons as color options.

Hey
GauravK,

thanks for your reply. That's what i was thinking about.
But instead of options, a color chooser would be a great idea.
I can do the option thing for now, but color choosers in the menu-option-menu would be really nice...
for...
- changing textcolor
-
changing
backgroundcolor
-
changing
selectioncolor
-
changing
bordercolor
....

And another feature request....
Is it possible to hide the thin grey border around the menu or take a special color for it. That would be nice too.

Thanks, mpu

I can't get colors to change from gray.

I think there is a bug in the variation selection for old skins. It will be fixed in the next version.

Thanks again for prompt reply. I really appreciate Classic Shell. Keep up the good work. I will look for donation link - believe you deserve $ help from users. Thanks.
