Thank you for the links Quentin, much appreciated. 
Now I understand what you are doing.
If you add links after could you note which reply # the link goes with.
It is easier to understand with the image or link to it.
I apologize if I am bugging, but with people following along & wanting to learn but not familiar with the program or knowledge I would like to be able to refer back to a post like this
Again thanks for doing this and I hope more skinners will do this and add a bit of info & tips or tricks so that more people can learn.

I do have a comment I want to share; more of a personal taste that I wanted to get your feedback on.
The skins, and walls, and gadgets that last the least amount of time are the ones that are "branded" with something I don't care about. Things like the name of teh skin or artist or what have you.
I respect the name of your skin, but it has no emotional meaning for me and unless it's part of the art . . it seems out of place. I'd rather there be a sub-style at least (not the default) without the branding.
Does anyone else have thoughts about this?

Zubaz, i choose the name of my skin in general to show what they are, but for one time i would like to called one for an other reason. I called it like a dedication to my daughter. I know the name means nothing for some people but if i begin to called my skins like people want i'm gonna to called all of them "vista...."
that's my thought
that's my thought

Perhaps I was unclear Quentin. I like the name, but having it displayed on a skin turns me off. That's all.

You are really clear
no mater at all
But it's my choice, just i wouldn't called it on her real name It's in part for this i called it like an anagram.

i think it looks good so far quentin but i agree with zubaz. its cool its a dedication to your daughter and all but that skin would then be just for you and noone else.if you are planning to submit then if i were you i would do what zubaz said and add a substyle for those who would prefer it not be there...anyways really nice so far can't wait to see finished product

Quentin . . no one wants you to change the name, just have a sub-style that does not display it on the statmenu or on the "please wait" dialog and wallpaper.
It's your skin and you can do whatever you want and it'll be great. But for me, skins don't stay on my system if it has text or graphics that don't fit me.

How i have made the buttons=
some ranges with the same color but at various level of luminosity. I used the tool "Pen" to make the round edges. And after i set the opacity level at 90%.
