Thanks grrinder, i just came across the royale theme yesterday, was thinking today that it would be cool to have other colors using this style. Would it be possible to make a set without the compact start menus or the smaller size taskbar/captions (the smaller size is tough to see on high-res monitors)? That would be awesome!

Thanks again.
