WinCustomize Community Skinning Project

Friday, January 21, 2011 by Philly0381 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen

It has been awhile since the last Community Skinning Project.

To start off, all community skinners are eligible and encouraged to submit a WindowBlinds entry for a contest.   Yes you read that correctly, a contest with the winner's WindowBlinds being used as the theme for the community project as the prize. 

A few rules, only one entry per skinner and it must meet the established guidelines for uploading of a WindowBlinds.  Since this is for a Community Project and we know the community still uses XP, Vista and now Windows 7 you know what we are looking for.  The entries on a minimum will be skinned for Windows 7.

Volunteers are needed to judge the entries.  One simple rule, if you volunteer to judge you can not submit a WB.  You can however sign up to make themed skins.  We need a minimum of five but no more than ten judges.  I'm expecting a lot of entries.

When does the contest end, Friday the 18th of March.  All entries for the contest will be uploaded to the WinCustomize WindowBlinds Gallery Library no earlier then Monday, 14 March (you really don't want to show your entry to the other skinners early now do you?)   and no later than Friday, 18 March.  All entries should include 'For Community Skinning Project' in it's description.  Winner will be selected on Friday, 25 March.

Once a winning theme is selected community skinners will be able to sign up for skins they wish to make and get the graphics and start skinning. 

What can you make a themed skin for you ask, if it has a WinCustomize Library you can make a skin for it

Can there be multiple skins as in two or three Wallpapers or Logons, yes, but only one per skinner. 

Can a skinner sign up to do several different skins, yes. 

Only one rule for themed skins, they will use the theme graphics.  The only exceptions will be for Screensavers, Dreams and Wallpapers.  These will though have a tie in to the theme of the project.

Please leave a reply to this thread if you will be submitting an entry in the contest.

 

Ahhh, what are you waiting on, the contest starts............NOW!

UPDATE:

Skinners submitting a WindowBlinds Theme are:  Vampothika, k10w3, Xiandi, CountryYokel, Z71

Judges:  RedneckDude, gmc2, PCPrincess, navigatsio, WebGizmos, Zubaz, DrJBHL

(Yes, Seth, I know I should just give it a rest, but it's in my face every day -- last week I was transcribing a report after the doctor was just dictating off of old reports that were generated by voice rec, and finally, I caught the drug error, where robot kept generating Cymbalta when the actual drug was Symbicort -- Cymbalta isn't dosed as 160/4.5 mg 2 puffs per day -- it takes an actual person who cares about the record to figure that one out.)

Actually? Voice recognition wouldn't have mattered in that case as the re is no such drug as the one above "Cymbalta 160/4.5" although the puffs per day would be great as a room freshener.

And yes, I know you're just giving me shit... because you're evil. And hate science.

You should be flogged! Let the flogging begin! 1...2... 3... 4... 5... oh quit cryin ya baby!

"It's my party and I'll cry if I want to...."

Can't get my goat, WG (and meh-eh-eh means "No!").

*doc thinks he's way too nice to some people.

Vamps, the way I understand it:

Philly0381
Z71, no results have been given out, only the fact that some judges have not voted and that we had a tie. 

Having had some input from the judges, there will be no tie. 

As for the two who haven't voted yet, if they don't vote by tomorrow they won't be voting. The deadline was clear to everyone involved, and it was posted....so...

Philly wants to post the results of the voting over the weekend due to that deadline ending midnite tomorrow...at least that's how I put it together.

If I'm wrong (and that won't be a first), I'm sure Philly will say something.

Vampothika if there was a tie then a new vote to decide the winner would only include the entries that were tied. 

Doc, unfortunately you have it correct.  PM's were sent with no replies so I'm taking it that like has interrupted their schedule.  I will wait until tomorrow. 

Now, two of the five judges, after more testing, ask if they could change their vote.  I allowed this so there is not longer a tie.  Well not unless the two remaining judges votes and cause a tie.

I'm sure that really cleared things up. 

I have a headache.

Okey folks, Zubaz has voted, and life did pay him a visit.  Now if PCPrincess would just show up before the end of today.  If not, then we will go with the votes that we have.
