For years it seemed like every new application and operating system was touting its “skinning” capabilities. Then, abruptly, this trend stopped with the release of Windows Vista as developers began to return to providing a more consistent experience for PC users. To new visitors of Neowin, having a front page story on skinning might seem unusual. Yet, Neowin got its start largely tracking skinning technology back in the run-up to “Whistler” (what became known as Windows XP). Neowin and its users have long tracked the ebb and blow in the popularity of skinning. At one time, Neowin contained a side-bar dedicated to customization sites and the skinning forums on Neowin were the most popular.
