Artist's Note

This is the visual style, "Silk". It was originally shown in its early stages here:

http://www.customize.org/details/31002

There was a lot of people asking me for it, so I made arrangements to publish it. Special thanks to Max Rudberg at http://www.maxthemes.com for giving me permission to use his Milk theme as a
base. Also, thanks to my buddy Mike Wang and thanks to sticboy for inspiring to do a smooth look. Whether they realize it or not, this wouldn't be here with out their inspiration.

This is my first theme so if there are some bugs please let me know about them so I can make corrections.

To those who make use of it, enjoy!

Good port, my only gripe is with the start button but overall it's cool.

Wow. simply awesome. This is like a new and improved maxlist. I love it. I would like to request smaller font for the user name tho, that thing is huge! (or directions for shrinking just the user name in the start menu anybody?)

ok. what you have here has alot of potential, but what you have is "milk" with different caption buttons and start button. just by looking at it i can see about ten things that can be changed so it dosen't look so much like milk but still has that milk feeling. get what i'm trying to say? stylebuilder and i are best friends. so if you ever need help, like with the start menu! just ask. i will be glad to help ;) dont give up on this. it's defiantly on it's way to being an awesome vs!

very nice skin here. nice evolution from the milk theme - to me seems bland. this one complements itself nicely.

however, it would be useful to include a url to where we can get the icons from to go with the style.
