I've been using ltd-evolution for months now, and no other theme has been able to match it in functionality, or looks vs. performance.

I tend to use the themes I created (as it should be for any author), but here are a bunch that have proved to be really inspirational, fantastic concepts, and a joy to use:

Excalibur II
eXpOSv12
iBDE-V4
Isotanium
le
LSx6.2
Reflection
Simplicity
Tangent Universe
Tenebrae
UniverseMetaLs
VodkaMartini
Widow

I just started using a new theme, Endgame. It's a tiny little theme, uses NO images, (taskbar, systray, popup, etc, are all dynamically drawn).

nonstep hasnt got a look in :(

Posted by member 12025 on 2004-07-16 16:14:35 link

Well of course mine is the best. The one that I'm working on. It works great, and is a bit different than most. I'd have a link to the themes section, but it's newer than that one by three additonal modules :). The closest theme to the ones I'm doing would be Vodka Martini, and even in that, the limitations of LsPanel, which are similar to those of LsBox, show their ugly heads. xLabel and xTaskbar are godsends.

I'd like to think that mine is the best(RhodiumX), as should any author. Newest version isn't up here yet, as I can't stay logged in long enough to post it(I've tried 5 or 6 times but every time I click submit I need to log in again).
In the meantime it can be found here: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/8728100/

Other than that, I have Vodka Martini, Swollen, and Cerbie's newest one installed so that I can check them out whenever I really mess mine up or I need to know how to do something.

Posted by member 12025 on 2004-07-18 13:17:42 link

In all seriousness, Vodka Martini is quite possibly the best made theme ever. I'm hoping to one-up it with my next theme, but even if I can't, I have a lot of [fun geeky] work ahead of me.

I always thought Immortal's DesigneD4s (1&2) were great.

Is there a reason why you people keep bringing back these old and dead threads for nothing?

Posted by member 254808 on 2005-07-27 18:16:02 link

Mabey some links would help?

Bad DeVante! I got fooled in to thinking this was fresh. :P
