ipod miniskin
« on: January 23, 2003, 08:01:59 am »

Kurt provided a link for an ipod miniskin for MC9 over at the ipod lounge--it is VERY cool--I really didn't care for the miniskins until I saw this one.  It's not perfect, but it's still alot of fun.

When you download it, it becomes your default miniskin, but if you switch to another miniskin, you can't get it back unless you delete it and redownload it  (I think Kurt mentioned something about the font being an issue).  It's not a huge issue, as it's the only miniskin I like, so I won't be trying to switch back and forth, but are there any plans to incorporate this into the MC9 miniskins?

I apologize in advance if this has already been addressed...I realize this is probably pretty low on the food chain at present, but I thought I'd ask....

cct1,

Are you referring to the miniskin by Doof ?

Aye, the one that Doof made.  Stellar skin; I only wish that MJ's skinning engine could offer a  little bit more flexibility with text displays.  But ah well, it's still hella nice.

He ported it from a WMP skin made by Kerensky.  Good on both of them.

Thanks for the responses!

So, just out of curiosity, is there any way to offer this up as a miniskin so that you can switch to it in MC9 without the previously mentioned bug?  If it could be smoothly incorporated, I think it would be a nice feather in MC9's cap for the ipod crowd  (although not as much as the ipod plugin--the 3.46 just smokes when I synch--nothing short of amazing)   which I think is going to grow significantly when MC9 is completed...

There must be some bug in the way MJ is interpreting the skin packages or something. That happens to me when I doubleclick on an .mjs (MJ Skin) file, but when I install it through the .mjp MJ sets it up as a miniskin that can be selected along with the others.
