Forming design teams - What do you think?

Tuesday, July 31, 2001 by skinner7892 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I was thinking lately how beneficial it could be for the community if some designers could team up and unite their skills. Let me explain. Instead of having only one person doing all the work, which represents countless hours, what would happen if some designers team up and split the workload? Would it decrease production time since all the work process would be splitted? Would it increase the quality of the skins coming out thanks to melting of ideas? Would it favors the emergence of more complete integrated suites (full skin suite, icons, wallpapers, etc.)? To put it simple, my idea is to take the strenghts of each member of the team and split the work correspondingly.

I don't want to start a "riot" here but I was wondering what you guys think about it in a constructive way. And who knows, maybe good ideas could come up from our current brainstorming session

On a "serious" note. I have ambitions of making a complete skinset for convergence. I have some ideas, but as I mentioned, find it very difficult to turn a comp into a skin. Is there anyone that would turn my artwork into WB/DX/OB/WinAmp/ICQ skins? This is quite a big job, and not only am I very busy with work at the moment, I am also unbelievably lazy, so it might take a while for me to get around to it, but when/if the time comes would anyone like to help?

Hi, Sir flipnet, and skinners. It's a good idea. There's some anarchism, when all the skinners make their skins, and it's interesting offer at users a complete solution!! I offer myself stops to collaborate with you. Only one condition: DON'T STOPS THE IMAGINATION and THE INSPIRATION of skinners. All you can contact with me at mail on my account, or searching me at messenger: Carles Carbonell, Barcelona, Spain - carlitus20002hotmail.com

Kris I am useless at coming up with ideas for skins. I would be happy to take a look at your ideas and try and create a DX theme/objects from them.
