Really interesting and cool looking skin.
I'll start using it right now and I'll give you an advanced critique after some trial, OK?

OK... Here's what I like and What I dislike in this skin. Hope this crtique helps you to improve.

I like:

The nice way in what you made the Dragon to bend with the enviroment, no matter if the wallpaper is dark or light.
The clean Windows for TO DO and EVENTS list, that match perfectly the skin.
The general looking of this skin, there's not much people who can keep the detail in a skin without making it look messy, and you were able to combine simplicity and looking in this Rainlendar skin, almost perfectly.
The neuter Color scheme that combines with most of the wallpaper colors I use normally.

I dislike:

The background of the Main window. Maybe keep some of the glow around the wings and head may help the background, since the way it is now looks like you cropped the BG and just added the Calendar over it; The fact that the wings are incomplete in the lower part contrubutes to give the cropped aspect a little.
The color and size of the numbers when there's nothing programmed for that day, since they appear to be invisible, and some users- myself included- need to see the days even when there's nothing that day.

thanks for you input will look to resolve theas problems in next skin or an update to the current one.

but it was hard to find colors for the dates to match thinking of fixing trasparency in calandar to make numbers more visable. but if you know anything of editing i'm sure you can make it any color you like and thx again

Yeah.

I was about to say something about that... Do you mind if I do some minor edits to your skin?; Of course, you would remain with the whole credit of the creation.
