My first WB skin
Saturday, July 14, 2007 by jamespaulp | Discussion: Skinning
I am not an artist. I am a software engineer. After downloading dozens of skins from WinCustomize, I wanted to do something for the community. I have been working on this skin for a few months now. I just completed task bar, start panel and start menu programs. I have a long way to go. Hopefully I will complete my skin before next version of Windows is out.
Here is how the skin looks as of today.

I updated the skin today. The only criticism I received was about the start button. I expected more harsh reviews. I made a new start button to match the rest of the theme. Also made buttons for logoff and shutdown dialogs. One of the bugs I thought the skin had was probably a XP64 issue because I saw the same issue with another skin.
I made this skin by creating individual images separately. From what I read around here, that is not a very efficient way to create a skin. But as a hobby, it should be fine I guess.
