Congrats for daring use these unusual colors... I do like this skin, my only complaint is that I find the words "Riddle Box" should be written in smaller characters, both on the main window & the EQ. An artsy skin should always have, in my humble opinion, either no characters or barely readable characters !

I'm rather undecided about this Classic skin overall. I'm absolutely in love with the skin's title at the top of the Main Window, and it reminds me strangely of one of my own personal design influences, the obscure NES Dirty Harry game, but I can't put my finger on why. Something about a pimp eating a hotdog... Anyway, mauve is a dangerous colour, but the designer manages to pull it off as the dominant hue in this skin, by contrasting it with another potentially treasonous colour, lime-green. But it works, if only for a short time, it does work. The EQ disappointed me, I was hoping the background images to the sliders would move along with them. They also completely lack labels of any kind. Unfortunately, there's not a lot more to this skin that can't be divined from looking at the screenshot and deciding for oneself. Overall, as a Classic skin, I think there's potential to be discovered in this designer, the willingness to experiment with such colours and the innate essence captured by that damned title I love so much, the tiny rivet accents in the corners of the windows... But I can only afford three points of five for potential in this case, balanced against the design and features of the skin itself. I look forward to the designer's first (or second) Modern skin to follow this.
