Here is another skin I am working on. I will call it MC Avenger. Most of the skin is taken from the WindowBlinds skin Avenger made by MikeB314 (Mike Bryant, his site -> http://www.skinplant.com/library.cfm?lib=1&skinid=185). I post this skin with his permission. Only the playerbar was made by myself, but this one was really my absolutely first skin I've made.

• small modification of the tooltip color setting
• fixing the tool button on the action window
• UpDown-Button naming bug fixed (reported by bytestar)

Feedback yes

comments : more cooler skin, particularly it does not make me happy it problems with the search window gives. 

criticism : that is a small error the line looks strange nevertheless. (by extras)

Amusingly it no so good skin of more jriver gives aruba is probably ugly!



the reason is those German translation the words is then somewhat longer can you the line somewhat shorten?

Hi Bytestar,

thanks for your reaction. I see the top part of the mainframe need a little modification, but remember the whole skin is inspired by the WindowBlinds skin Avenger from Mike Bryant. He was it, who made this line on the top to a part of the design and I will leave it in.

Amusingly it no so good skin of more jriver gives aruba is probably ugly!

Maybe my English isn't that good (it's not my main language), but this sentence I don't understand  .... does it mean, that the MC Avenger skin is worse ?

First of all thank you for your skins.

I really like MC Avenger and Aluminium is also a very cool skin 

What i'm missing in MC Avenger is the small 'Menu'-icon that appears in some items of the action-window.
In other skins (also in Aluminium) it is located top left of the action-window.

aruba is ugly that wanted I to say  , sorry my English is bad  ?

[bytestar]

Beatnik can you shorten the line somewhat? 
then it would be perfect!
correct the small menu button in action window left is missing!

I am not an expert, then I mean it.

[Beatnik62]

Thanks DJ_Hazelwood,

it's just a tiny typo in the main.xml which cause the problem with missing button.

Section   <ACTIONWINDOW>
Line        <Entry Name="Tools" Bitmap="(ActionWindow_Tools.png" .....
change to
               <Entry Name="Tools" Bitmap="ActionWindow_Tools.png" .....

It will be fixed in the next beta.

@bytestar

OK. now it's more clear what you want to say. I wouldn't say that aruba is ugly. It's more matter-of-fact .... with less details, but not bad. It's clear and easy to use and that's what people sometimes want, you know.

ok aruba is  not ugly however evenly too simply 

Tooltips text is very dark and a little hard to read , can you change this please ?

[Beatnik62]

Small update ...  tooltip color adjusted    ....  Tool button on action window fixed.

Hi bytestar,

thanks for investigating my MegaMe skin so accurate. I never saw this small buttons appearing on the screen, so I never noticed that there was a wrong name in my photoshop master design file. However, you found it and in the current version (beta 1.2) it's fixed.

Thanks,

Beatnik

Great Skin!!, good job!

[Mr ChriZ]

What an Awesome skin, somehow I totally missed it,
I guess because it surfaced while I was in Africa!
Cheers Beatnik!
