No offence but that is a bit boring...

no hurt feelings here.

i agree with you.

but i had to post something and that is the only thing i could think about.
its kind of hard to come up for a name to a black blue and red and green
colored skin?

what about this one " spilt paint "

Split paint, thats different. Lets see what other people say before i choose that one

very nice!

Perhaps that would look good with mine?

damn... very sorry.,.. I didn't mean to intrude on your thread... I meant to post it somewhere else but got confused.

yeah.. I was wondering if you'd want to amalgamate... but I think for this first skin of mine I'll want to create the whole thing...

feel free to modify mine when I release it if you can't be bothered making the rest of the window... it takes alot of time.. though I think the player might be hardest.. I haven't tried yet.

No worrys

The player bit is pretty easy if you use a program like winRAR to extract the wsz. Then you can just double click the images to open in your favorite picture editor, save them then drag them in to the rar to overwrite the other ones. Or did you already know that?

as of now the skin for media monkey's player is the same as the old winamp classic 2.1 skins.

the images for the player might change in media monkey 3.

but the theme.mskn is the skin for the rest of media monkey.

you will need the theme skining engine to get them out. and the last free version of that skinning engine is found on my skin's download page or on trixmoto's web site.

if you open one of my skin's wsz files you will see there are complete
images for winamp 2.1 in it also thus making my skin a dual skin.

as for the player being hard i agree with you but it should only take about four hours if you are pretty good with any image programs.

the whole winamp skin took me 20 hours to do. the media monkey theme skin stuff took me another 4 or 5 hours to do.

good luck on your skinning.

mostly around here it seems to be no news is good news but i am sure others will send feedback about your skin. i'll take another look at it but i did not see anything bad the last time.
