During Royale?s development (the XP Media Center theme), the graphic artists also produced a black version of the skin, sans the overused ?glass? effect. The result is an aesthetic black skin named ?Royale Noir?, it even works with Office 2003. Since the skin was never released (or reached final adjustments) there are a few issues with it: some of the colors don?t meet the overall ?feel? (they?re too purple-ish compared to the greys of the bitmaps) and the inactive titlebars are a little too dark.
