New VLC Theme

[spark]

Hi all,

I made a new VLC theme, mainly for myself, but I thought I'd post it here so anyone can use it. It fits in with Windows XP's interface fairly well.

It's still a bit unfinished, but works ok. The icons are by Jakub Steiner (from GNOME icon theme) and the theme is GPL licensed. I'd be interested to know what people think (but don't be too harsh, it's my first VLC theme:)

I was also wondering whether there is some way to link to system fonts instead of including them in the skin itself (since the fonts make up 90% or more of the filesize of this skin)?

Tell us when you think your theme is no more "still a bit unfinished", so that we can add it to the website.

For the fonts question, it is not a good idea to use system fonts, because with them your skin is no more portable...

Ok, I've updated the theme to fix various bits and pieces - the screenshot in my first post above shows the new version.

ipkiss, if this is ok, could you add it to the skins2 page?
