Brushed Metal Skin for v10
« on: December 07, 2003, 02:21:19 am »
There seems to be a glut of Metal-type skins available.  So here's one more :)

It's not a unique skin so much as a remix of existing ones.  I found elements I liked in JC's "Brushed Metal," JRiver's "Metal," and Knickelfarz's "Blue Steel," so I kinda smushed 'em all together and tried to make things look clean and tidy.

I don't take any credit for doing the heavy lifiting on this skin.  Those guys created all the images (and they did a really nice job).  I just played mix & match and messed around with the XML a little.

Never really intended to make this publicly available, but it goes really well with the "DJ Lancelot" trackinfo template I just put out.  I thought a couple of you might enjoy it.

How do i take a screenshot?  I looked online and they said to press the "printscreen" button and it would show up on the clipboard.  I did that but nothing happened.

I'm not the one to help you with the screenshot, but can you fix the link above so I can use the skin?

I thank you in advance. It sound interesting with that mix.

When you hit printscreen, it copies the desktop to the clipboard. Then you need to open your fav graphics app and paste it in there, then save in your chosen format.

For those interested, here's a screenie of shining armour in action....

well... the fact that marko could take the screenshot also means that the D/L works.  if anyone would be willing to mirror the skin, i'm more than happy to do anything to help them

I updated the skin.
Action window is tweaked a little.  It handles v10 better now.  Buttons on the window are better blended and i extended the main top part thingy... not sure what to call it.

Looks fatcastic.  I might have added a ghosted star for "off" ratings, but overall it looks great. Nice work!

Problems with the links at the top. I have had your skin since it was out, so I look forward to see it with the fixs even if I can't say that I have missed something.

Thank you!
