Hmm. I really like this, but I don't like the font (hurts my eyes) and i don't like the way to top and bottom of the windows look like they've been "sliced off" at the tips; it should be made a bit rounder there.

I do like the split dashboard buttons though! :P

The font can be changed in the skin's options I believe.

I like it but the font is too small. Also, the options panel is in Spanish. Anyway, these can be fixed and overall it is a very good skin! :)

This is the 3rd shaped skin so now there is a competition for the Deformity category prizes!

RE: [Release] Crystal Lab
zoid this is an awesome slin, i saw the screenshot on skins database yesterday and i just had to have it, beleive it or not theres a few features in this skin that i would like for 365 but not sure how to do them.

first up i like the 2 toolbars you did for contact list (left & right) as it saves some space on the top bar, secondly in 365's skin options while it all fits as is it occured to me that if i could save space by removing the text for my button options and replace them with just icons that have tooltips like you did in this skin it would be much better, while i know how to do icons instead of text the thing i dont know how to do is when you enable an option it uses one icon when you disable it its overly with a red no symbal which i found to be really cool.

EDIT:
the other thing i thought was cool and might like to do in 365 is having the status buttons there on top toolbar so you can set status's easier and again there on right toolbar in chat window.

if you wanted to go further in your skin my advice is give show hide options for mobile chat toolbar, formatting toolbar and even for contact list and chat windows right and left toolbars, the more the user can customise the more special they feel.
