Evolution of a Masterskin...Slider XP

In the beginning...

Tuesday, August 7, 2007 by I.R. Brainiac | Discussion: Skinning

Never at a loss for skinning ideas,I was however having trouble deciding what to start after Knot Vista.
vStyler was bugging me every damn day..."so...what you gonna do next?"

"Dammit John,I aint even finished Knot Vista yet" I says.

"maybe a theme based on the SR71 Blackbird,...or something that looks like vintage guitar equipment"

Instead I went with a chinese abacus...go figure.

I get the best care the govt can provide...DOH!    Back is at the bottom of a long list...nothing terribly serious,but accumulative they can ruin yer day.

Lately been pretty good and finally made some good progress on Slider...just toolbar icons to go!yippeee!  

Now...lets see...a back navigation icon........hmmmmmm...that points left,right?

It...is...FINISHED.(well,except for more free stuff)  

Its up at Maxstyles.com and will be here at Winc as soon as it clears moderation.  

Thanks everybody for watching and for the suggestions,not to mention your patience.

Now I gotta get RomanDA some more graphics and I have a neat idea for a Xion skin.

Every thing that you have shown us during this WB/Theme development has just been outstanding. You and other skinners that have let us common folks in on what you go through in getting this done from start to finish has given us so insight into what it takes. Saying thank you somehow just doesn't seem enough. I'm getting this one as soon as it is available. Great job.

Tom accidently deleted the old preview,this is a preview of the final(but without color presets for some reason).
I ran out of steam when it got to be time for the white version.(white cant be done with just the color presets)It will have to be a complete substyle with all new graphics.I still plan to do it.So it would be free with an update to the blue one.

Sorry bout that...I was just too tired to go any further right now. (

If it has color presets and dosnt say 'demo' all over it...its the real deal...white is just on hold til I can force myself to do more...unfortunately its not just a simple recoloring job...all blue parts have to have their psd's redone. ( 

Thanks Snidely...eheehe,did you think I would charge ya for a demo?

The new demo actually shows up as Slider XP demo now in wb config...so its seperate from Slider XP...should have done that from the start so people wouldnt even have to delete it before installing the final.

the jags are a good team but don't go into the team's fan forum unless you want to get trampled by sore losers and a columnist who doesn't know what he's talking about. i read the fan forums of most of the nfl teams and the jags' forum is by far the worst when it comes to sportmanship and whining. i know it is not indicative of the majority of fans but the ones who post there are really poor losers. luckily, john (vstyler) isn't like those guys.
