A Steampunk Skin by Samizdat on 09-18-2009 at 02:49 PM

Until I updated msn, I was using the IronMan skin with a replacement logo as a steampunk style skin. The closest I can find that works with the current version is Transformers, but the background is horribly pixelated. I'd like something that will match the rest of my desktop theme (XP, with my own skin) and my browser (again, a custom skin).

That means imperial splendour, fancy hardwoods, old paper background, type-writers, etc. A cross between Zulu, Indiana Jones, Transformers, Iron Man, etc.

If victorians had designed MSN, what would it have looked like? The Gates & Son Patented Virtual Telegraph Simulator. Care to try it?

No one in their right mind will do this.

What do you mean.. I think the skins are quite classy.
