Interesting idea. Many of the buttons and sliders are kind of basic, and the beveling makes some of them a bit difficult to read. I like the colors, though.

That name's taken.. =P

I guess I'm obliged to actually finish my skin, if I'm ever going to claim the right to its name. =D

Looks like this one will have to be renamed "Machine that is Green"

Now is the time for all good Americans to come to the aid of their Country

It reminds me of http://classic.winamp.com/skins/detail.jhtml;$sessionid$Y4IIXWU2KQJP1TN241GBCZQ?componentId=5756

Not necessarily a bad thing, but you'll have to add your own personality to it to make it stand out.


Who is the milkman? What is the purpose of the goggles?

speaking of that mountain dew skin, can someone tell me why its that skin thats on the bottom of every skin page for the instructions on how to install skins? what makes it so special?

Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway.

I'd imagine that it was chosen on the whim of whoever made those instructions... but any inside info would be more reliable than my guess.
