Skins Made From I.R. Braniac's No Load Limit Graphics
Thursday, February 28, 2008 by zakai1369 | Discussion: Sneak Previews
So being that I.R. was gracious enough to give his graphics to the community. Figured I'd start a thread to see what people are working on with them.
Myself so far I generally try making my own OD bgs and Xion skins.
Figuring that WebGizmos and messiah1 would probably jump right on the OD bgs (and do a much better job at them), I decided to do a Xion skin. So here is what I have so far:
" align="baseline" />
And I have alot more to do to it.
As always criticism is welcomed.
Thanks to I.R. for letting us all take a crack at using his graphics.
Cant wait to see what other people are working on.

*runs to the graphics section*
Hit a snafu trying to do animations for the Xion skin without screwing up the great look of the graphics. Decided to take a break from it and finish up a couple other things I had going. Getting back at it soon though

If I manage to get the other things I'm working on making it do finished then that should be easy by comparison

Ha ha, This has got to be killing IR. Being the perfectionist that he is.( You can tell that in his skins.)
But really, thanks IR. Even though I have no time to play with it, it has shown me more of how to skin something right than any book has.

Upload what? It looks like you are just using zakai's screenshots...

lol yeah I think I'd go to the graphics library and get the graphic packs that I.R. has uploaded and work from those.
Working from my screenshot of an idea(one I've done away with at that) is really a bad idea.

And as for me.
I'm still working on a Xion its just one of those things that I want to be done just right.
So I get easily aggravated with what I'm trying to do and put it away and work on something else until I'm not annoyed by it anymore and then give it another shot.

Messiah is correct...working from screenies is tough,you cant do much with them and they have already been compressed so the image quality isnt pristine.
The psd's are more fun.

Thanks guys for the links,help & advice - I have 4 different ideas now I am working on.
This is one.
the others are a white, a brushed steel and a blue brushed with different patterns...
Same idea though.
Let me know what you think, and when we can start uploading to the site.
This one I have already in 3 sizes ready to go if approved.
Thanks again,

Not trying to be a jerk here but I would think it would be better to try and use the graphics to format the wallpaper itself rather than creating a wallpaper and then just laying the graphics around on top of it.
And just a thought but I think the broken chain kind of goes against the No Load Limit concept

Thats at least an improvement...light directions are a little crazy.(and looks odd without the drop shadows)
Keep at it,your getting better.
