Frogboy Administrators Posted January 10, 2005 Administrators Share Posted January 10, 2005 Over at WinCustomize we have just had the 2004 "Skinnies" awards for the best skins of 2004. But we also want to include the best msstyles too since they have become quite popular in the past few years. Based on another post, we were able to narrow it down to a few outstanding visual styles in the msstyles format. So let us know what you think. Which of these is the best. We had to choose msstyles that came out in 2004 and were not ports or too derivative of a Longhorn or Royale or Luna style. You can see the WinCustomize Skinnies awards [HERE].

VenQWish Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Seems like you forgot quite a few, I made a list of the styles that were mentioned in the "best styles of 2004" section.

Rushnak Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 @VenQWish/everyone-else Just vote what's on the poll, he hasn't "forgotten" anything, just chosen not to put those in. If the theme you like the best isn't there, just state it in the thread. This may sound a little patronising, but atleast others will know what I've said anyway. :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/269627-poll-best-msstyle-of-2004/#findComment-585269934 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well making a poll with all of them might be a bit crazy, but leaving out inspirat made me vote nothing sry :p. (Although Sustenance is mighty fine) If you had read all of the first post, you would see it is for original msstyles and no longhorn/luna derivatives. So inspirat is out.

mojomonkee Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 i fear that many people are voting for a certain visual style because it is so fresh in their minds (having been released not too long ago). not to say the vs doesn't deserve the votes and not to assert that a poll really means anything, just saying.

swordsman74 Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 I just like the curves and shape to Sustenance. I do like the glass effects of Royal Inspirat and the beta Infini8, and Opus is nice but a little too all-one-color for my taste.

ZZOOzzoo Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 It's ABUSOLUTELY ridiculous how Royale/Longhorn Inspiriat by Stefanka is not mentioned as one of the contestants. Unlike other LH/Royale/Luna copycat or recoloured VS, it was unique, glossy, beautiful and innovative. Again, they were UNIQUE!!!

VenQWish Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Amen to that, it is not just a copy of longhorn like a lot of others (not saying there weren't good ones in those though) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/269627-poll-best-msstyle-of-2004/#findComment-585271864 Share on other sites More sharing options...
