This is my first skin for RR and it was built with simplicity, stability, and consistency in mind. It was loosely modeled from the OEM skins of Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Chevy and GMC with the 'tabbed' menus on top. Graphics are much higher resolution than OEM though. Some of the newer skins for RR are really nice and have all sorts of neat effects but are hard to use while driving and need all sort of dependencies to install and make them work. This skin is 'old school' in its design as there is no flash, no crazy menu effects and NO B.S.! Its just fast, easy to use, and flexible in its design made to work 'out of the box'. To maximize its flexibility I have included the PSD files inside the skin directory. This will allow users to add menus, change menus, or change the color of the entire skin to match their interior lighting. Please keep in mind that this skin is designed to be slim for my embedded system and the way I use my carPC. It may or may not contain features you are looking for but again this is why I left it open source and included the PSD files. This skin also supports XP embedded or any XP install utilizing the EWF feature. It is the first skin I know of to support this.
PLEASE READ the _read_me_.txt file in the skin directory! It contains the release notes, instructions on how the skin works, and what needs to be done prior to launching the skin. If you refuse to read this and ask questions that are answered in the read me I will not answer them again. I have throughly tested the skin on my desktop and in the car and everything is working and very stable for me. If you notice any bugs or other unwanted behavior please let me know so I can fix them. If you have any suggestions on how this skin could be better please let me know. Skin was coded in RRskineditor and can be modified or opened in RRskineditor to see how everything is laid out.
Most Importantly - Have Fun!

Credit goes to Treetop as he did all the graphics on the burgundy color version. The PSD's are not included in this version which is why the skin is a record breaking 2 mb in size! That may be the smallest footprint for a RR skin yet.
