I don't want to be mean. Its pretty grey. Not really getting a fantasy vibe. Actually looked in options to switch back. Is it just me? Might be.

I work in IT. All the new developer hires out of college make their IDE look exactly like this and think they are cool. LOL "Dark Theme" IDE. That's exactly what this looks like, to me.

I do like the direction of the change, the window styles , edges and overall sleekness, but the color scheme is too grey and too much afar from the original color scheme. it makes the game inside the windows look weird in comparison.

Maybe provide some other color schemes for options? How about more of the wood grain? (but in an oak instead of a walnut)
How about making the text brighter, too. I can barely read some of it. (the buttons etc)

just thoughts.

Thank you for the feedback. There are plans on making an alternate high contrast version of the skin. That being said ActiveSkin is free and available if you would like to have a chance to make your own version. I'd be happy to send you the link to download.

The only problem I currently have is that the combat window is hard to drag around and buttons are sometimes rather unresponsive.

@Grumpy What I would LOVE to see is a UI forum where you can sticky the tool and we can all upload different skins. I am already working on what I suggested above. I am just replacing the dark wood with lighter tones and reversing the text lighting on the buttons (light on all the time and off when mouse over or w/e). Would love to have a place to upload and share with others when finished.

You could even have contests, holiday themes, ETC
