RedneckDude's Skinner Spotlight

Caught in the Headlights!

                                        Folks, it's time for the August 2010 edition of RedneckDude's Skinner Spotlight!

 

This month my victim is none other than Master scripter, sViz! sViz is famous here at WC, her name is in the description of at least 85% of my DX themes and widgets! I'm sure she's been involved in many other's too.

sViz has been here at WC since April of 2006. She has earned the Master status for her scripting prowess and her willingness to help anyone who asks, and many who didn't. She is a fine asset to the skinning community and has written various tutorials and articles. My favorite articles she has written have been in the I Love DX series.

 

 

 I Love DX Series

 

When The WeatherChannel took away our weather feed, sViz came to the rescue with several weather widget templates, with tutorials on using for your own skins.

She has written various tutorials and has posted them on several sites and on the WC Wiki. Here are a few important links:

A few sViz stats:

    
And now, the best part, her work! Below are some examples: 
Firstly, her most recent super gadget, Metric. This thing is awesome, and it does a lot!

Then, there is her weather template, one of several.

And, if she ever decides to start cranking out DX themes, I'll be out of business!!
Just look at these beauties!
This is Microbe DX, a very techie theme!

Then there's Dirty NRG DX. There is a blue one too!

The versatile Dock Anywhere Template. I have worn this one out!!   
https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/desktopx_objects/4505/ 
 
 
And a set of drag and drop shortcut templates that I use alot.

So, folks, please give a big hand for sViz, our resident scripting Master.

Oh, by the way, did I mention that even though she's a Master, as far as I know, she has never charged a fee for a skin?
Although, after embarrassing her with this article, she'll start charging me probably!!
Please go check out her site, here http://sviz.wincustomize.com/     and please hit the links above.
I hereby bestow upon sViz a new exalted name.   SuperViz!!!!!

Imagine, 305 pounds of duct tape....BTW we rednecks call it duck tape.

In the film industry it's Gaffer Tape.

and in Motor Racing it's often called 200 mph tape.  [Theory is it lets go over 200mph]...
