Another skin release for you all. This one is based on the upcoming speed racer movie.

The skin features a clean white design with Mach 5 branding around the skin. The skin features skin options similar to those that were used in Iron Man so there is plenty to play with. There are also a few new options that I have added since people have been asking for them.

The Speed Racer skin allows you to hide the email notification button and the entire word wheel (search for contact bar). Might not seem major, but at least the options are there now for those that want it.

Yeah the skin looks very Iron Man-ish, its just that the borders aren't modified here.

I personally don't really like it (along with Iron Man) because the borders waste too much space (when you're on 1280x800, simple is good)

Judging from screenshot the heading on the contact and chat windows is HUGE and yes it'd be good if it was minimized a bit, also I'm guessing that 5 is on the car, personally I think the car's M logo in an orb would be better suited there than a high contrasted Red and Yellow ball, I do like the glass-button-alike min max close though

Firstly, I think movie skins are being released too early. There's still 3 weeks until it's released. I think they should be released on the movie release date, or a few days before if it's a big movie. At least wait until it's being advertised .

Second, I wasn't a fan of the Iron Man skin because I thought it was over-themed, if that makes sense. It's just hard to read some things (the conversation window in particular) and not an enjoyment to use. I prefer simpler skins. I know a lot of hard-work has been put into it and it's great to see advanced WLM skins, but I think the borders and the fact it's over-themed spoils it, unfortunately.

But nevertheless, your still the greatest Plus! skin creator and I'm sure the people who doesn't like this, will like other skins.

Agreed with some of the comments here, i know it fits the themes of movies, but i just don't like bloated skins.

Well look guys, personally the skin isn't anything I would use either but the idea is to try and suit the movies theme as best as possible. For the speed racer series you wouldn't exactly expect something minimalistic and simple (the same goes for iron man).

Advanced skins are more of a novelty to me than anything else. To me, these skins are aimed more at the general public than serious customizers or skinners who like their skins to blend in with their desktop better.

I wouldn't worry too much because I haven't totally given up on my own creations. In fact I have something in mind for something minimalistic and very clean, but that will come when the time is right

Glad to hear that Willz

Its a good skin, am i the only one who likes it? lol
i had the chance to test it a little bit, and i must say i like

Too much complains here and there about you guys, use it some minutes and your thoughts will change

At first it seems bloated, but its a very good skin
Keep up Will

I like it too. Maybe because I know how hard it is to have such a great result. It is not the easiest thing to change the way Messenger looks so much.

Yeah I like it too. I haven't downloaded it yet but it looks great.

looks good but i will stick with WAM for now

Sweet! one thing though: the tabbed chat bar looks weird with this skin. The terxt areas could be brighter too I'd say.

Other than that, I really like it, as always Mr Willz.

Great Skin, S--- Movie!

I have to admit, the skin looks far better when it's in action, whereas the screenies don't do it justice

Nice work
