You're welcome and thanks in turn to everyone.
I'm happy that some people will get some use out of them.
Others have called it a low priority but I think it's obvious by now that when we use software, we're using all our senses to make art.

It only follows that color would affect the work.
I suggest changing skins based on time of day, day of week, per project etc. It helps me a great deal. None of these were meant to be a one-size-fits-all solution.
My personal favorites change. I like ochre, zissou, olive, modern and contour right now.

Instructions are at the bottom of the first post. I've pasted them again here.
"Scroll to the bottom of the music page for the zip file, right click, download to disc. Place in Ableton's apps resources/skins folder (show package contents and navigate.)"
I'm not exactly sure of the command for windows but the idea is that inside the live application folder is an apps resources folder which contains the skins folder. On the mac, this is hidden from normal view so you have to right click the app to get a menu with "show package contents". After that, it's just a matter of navigating.
Now I feel like I've repeated it twice.
Hey, I have!
Don't feel bad. Enjoy the skins.
Oh yeah, I liked the dancing feet too.

James, thank you! Feeling Olive right now, may go Zissou, but the gray stop buttons on the blue may be freaking my eyes out.

It's a small file. Why not just download and try them for yourself?
I won't be making any screenshots.
If anyone else would like to, please feel free.
