A dark (Eclipse3 type) skin with neon text and outlines.
« on: April 05, 2013, 11:42:46 am »

Does this exist? Can someone point me to it?

Thannkss> 8)

P.S.
Wouldnt it be cool if you could change the text of any skin to whatever color?
Like you can for the color in general?

Also, having  a choice of fonts would be really nice.
But, I guess that's asking too much?  :P



Oh, btw, the above is 'Tron Punk'  ::) from MusicBee.
Pretty useless skin, but it's got the same Eclipse darkness with nice neon text.
Good contrast, easy on the eyes. But with a few fatal flaws, esp if you're over 20 yrs old.

edit:i remember now i was using it in the past but the soft seems really better now i 'll take a second try.

Yep, MB has come a long way, but still trails behind MC.
Buggy when uploading files, and just a lot of gremlins in there.

I was drawn to give it a second look see because they handle 'Sleep /Fade' ...and ALSO have a decent 'Auto DJ'.
Which has me split down the middle over MC vs MM.  :-\ Which, with those (these) two, it's like one or the other.

Either you have a program that you can sleep with, or one that you use to explore your library with a decent 'Auto Dj/ Playing Doctor' thing.
Using both of them, you're constantly having to reassign properties of various tracks, and bla bla bla

And their (MB) skins are cool and all that.
Still haven't figured out how to change text color in MC.
Tried and it just erased the entire skin from my options and booted my to Steel, or something. lol.

Would loooove an 'Eclipse3' skin for MC.
Black, black, blaaack....with neon text? neon outlines between sections? and a separate neon color for 'now playing' tracks...? I'd be so happy.

downloaded the version 2.14 beta with many enhancement and downloaded 25 skins already :)
MB have very good things .
I see you're post here http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=79662.0;topicseen

I answer you on it
Beetween have u tried the metro style skins with MC?
EDIT:is there a way to have the playing now title more big ?With the touch lite skin it's ridiculous to have all this empty space.
EDIT2: found the solution :) there's many many options!

It's a dark chocolate skin I guess.

Kinda looks,,,uh,,,not ideal.

Yeah, and I gave up on coding for text.
Waay over my pointy head.

Well, here's the Eclipse Skin:
http://www.MediaMonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=60640

I really can't figure out the main.xml thing.
It gives me a headache even thinking of it.
Thank you for offering though. That's nice of ya.


I'm using the "Z" skin, with skin effect: "invert".
Looks like a dark Chocolate, and gold color, but I am getting bored of that.

A little.


P.S.
beautiful skins in your link. Good work!

Good But ...

I suggest:

- The letters (all) in blue neon.
- Buttons (play, pause ....) without internal color.
- SmallIcons in neon (for this skin)

Regards ...

But, my friend, if you did this in five,  just think what you could do in 10 minutes!
I used to not like dark skins either, but at night, they are easier on the eyes...

Carbon ...not dark enuff... 8)

Btw, can you play doctor with the carbon skin?
Seems like there's no 'stop' so...  ? Thanks for your patience.

I'm thick as a brick sometimes. sorry.
