Where's all the Icon skins?

Where's all the Icon skins?

Wake up!

Hey everyone, I hate to be one of those people that complains, but for the past month (since Nov 24th), there as been no new IconPackager skins/themes. Is there a strike I am not aware of? I enjoy installing new themes on my Vista 64 but haven't been as of late. I would like to know where my money goes to pay for OD. If there is no new skins, then someone is getting rich :(

I had a hard time with just the WB button images. Good icons are 10 times harder to make in my opinion.

I'm just getting around to trying my first Xion skin. I tried icons one time....thought I might better start with something a bit easier. So Xion it is. I'm trying to learn GIMP...can't afford those "fancy" graphics proggies right now.

I tried GIMP but settled for Paint.NET + Plugins for my first skin. Photoshop requires more dedicated learning. I am taking a slow approach to learning Photoshop.
