The end of the journey ...

Most of the new skins published in the last 6 months or so have black and/or white backgrounds. I'm not a great fan of either and before embarking on Pure Black&White I was working on backgrounds other than black or white. Luckily (!?) covid-19 lock down provided me with the opportunity to realise my dreams. The result ...



61 skins with 18 different backgrounds colours, 19 text/icon/button colours and 24 different highlight colours. Two examples:





Again all skins are provided in both "bitmapped" (again thanks to diego) & "flat" versions. All source is also included.

Great work on all 3 releases but this one I think looks the most unique. Fantastic job!

Hello Fred, because I can't get the theme programming to work, I wanted to ask if you can create a skin in red and yellow for me for your second example as a finished skin file in .xml. I would be very grateful for that.
