Gonna spend this entire weekend on my Blacksmithing :/

I've spent all of my gold 3 times on smithing, but still not max yet...
14 points to go then I'm at 100. Hopefully I can get the rest of the points tonight.
I like the Ebony armour as it gives me for my purposes enough protection and it looks EPIC.
I got my Ebony armour as a quest reward from Boethia and it also allows you to move silently and adds 5 points of poison damage to foes who come to close to me.
When you crouch you get totally covered by a black mist, but scared the crap out of because it makes this loud sound effect when it does and I thought a Dragon just flew over my head.But it looks great.
I also got a new skin for the Nightingale armour that is purely sublime. Really the best skin I've seen.

I wear the nightingale armor & boots with the ancient shrouded gloves and ancient shrouded hood. Doesn't look quiet as epic as the full nightingale set but i love it.
That Nightingale Prime texture pack is very nice. Hope that person releases texture packs for other armour sets.
i have a question regarding the skill levels. If i do not spend any points in a tree, is there any difference between a skill 10 versus skill 100?
for example, SNEAK skill of 10 versus SNEAK skill of 100, but without any points spent on any SKILL perks? Will there be any difference at all to my chances of being spotted? same question for one-handed skill type.
the way i see it, the only reason of point to levelling up is to hit a particular perk point. so for instance, if you only plan to spend perk points in archery which require 70 archery skill, then there is no point in levelling beyond 70 as it wont make any difference to you damage/accurary
agree/disagree ?
This is how Smithing works:
Quality Skill Required Effect Without Perk With Perk Armor Other Fine 14 14 +2 +1 Superior 31 22 +6 +3 Exquisite 65 40 +10 +5 Flawless 100 58 +13 +7 Epic 150 74 +17 +8 Legendary 196 91 +20 +10
So I speculate that sneak and the others work in a similar fashion.
