My current Shade1024x600-Netbook & ShadeDark1024x600-Netbook skins for Mixxx 
1.8 are intend to be used on Netbooks.
Effective size is 1008 × 500 pixels cause of the window decoration on different 
OS`
see http://mixxx.org/wiki/doku.php/skin_guidelines#the_optimal_size_for_skins.

Some stats for 1.8 skin downloads: 
1280x800-WXGA = 35%
1280x1024-SXGA = 31%
1024x768-XGA = 22%
1024x600-Netbook = 12%  

The older 1.7 skins (LateNight & derivate) are for 1024x600-Netbook too, they 
were as often downloaded as the 1.8 Netbook counterparts.

Imho Netbook sized skins (1024x600) should be included , not sure about the 
even smaller 1st gen. Netbooks.
