Alt+PrtSc is your friend :)

BTW, you might wanna talk to me about this, this is clearly a Wii Messenger rip.

ah the joys of being ripped.

Asides from being ripped from another skin the concept was ok, I'm not a fan of min max and close since they make absolutely no sense and do not reflect what actions happen when you click them.

Should say Xbox 360 rather than just Xbox.

Gradient is nice.

Like Willz said, the min. max. and close don't reflect what they actually do, so pointless and unneeded.

It looks nice, shame it is a ripped skin, i like the simplistic and gradient looks of these guys, like Willz Aero and things like that :)

It's pretty nice, but personally I'd make it more matte white to show the actual colours of the xbox 360, and perhaps the use of the xbox 360 circles:

I'm not a massive fan of gradients and stuff, but that's just me.

You could also try basing it around the dashboard of the 360:

Essentially by Fall 2008 in the USA that dashboard will no longer exist hehe, they are releasing a completely new one :)

Yeah but that was only released at E3 and my post was before that, so how could I have known? You should definitely make the skin reflect the main aspects of the xbox 360 though, both externally (the console) and internally (the dashboard etc). That will make the skin seem a lot more complete, and subsequently make it hot as :p.

It really grinds my gears when people - and i'm not saying you individually - bring out skins that seem incomplete because it concentrates on only one aspect of that said thing.

Use Open Live to base your skins on, or back code from it. That's how I did it (Not that I undstood what I did.)...
