Gemstone WindowBlinds Skin Idea- for Someone up to the Challenge
Sunday, May 29, 2011 by boldyloxx | Discussion: Skinning
I have a reallllly blingy awesome skin idea for any of you Skinner folks -- if you made this skin, I'd be forever in your debt and would be the first to download it- ![]()
Would someone consider making a Windowblinds skin adding gemstone enhancements -- (such as start button, etc.., etc) ? I could see skinner, i. Brainiac doing something like this.. after seeing his Plasmatron skin, etc.. You could make it in a way where various quartz chunks and other gemstones -- even a realistic freshwater pearl if you want as a start button -- are embedded throughout the skin.. Wow, that would look super awesome/cool !!
Now I would definitely make one if I had the skills- which I don't for Windowblinds- but I know many of you could do it! Here is a link to a screensaver in our screensaver section here--with more polished gemstones. https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/screensavers/160/
it inspired the gemstones Blind idea in me, and I want to pass this idea onto anyone up for the challenge who is blessed with the skills to make it. I think a polished stone version with faceted gemstones would be nice as one version, but so would rough cut stones- like chunks of quartz, etc.. and shiny glassy cabochons of other semi-precious stones added as a more rough cut version.
It's just an idea I wanted to deliver your way.. ![]()

Hey!!-- Yes, sadly you did have to wait way too much for me and I apologize for that- I also realize that I am not the only one with a full schedule , and I expect that your schedule is realistically much more involved than even mine as are all those involved in Skinning and other projects. The Earth doesnt revolve around lil' ole' me, so I did mention to lightstar while commenting on his skin that you have alot on your plate for now but no way was that meant to be a snarky comment toward you. I can see how on the internet, comments can be mis-construed but that comment was not intended to be snarky in the LEAST!
If you don't want to make that skin, that's okay- I know you would have done that skin alot of justice. To be fair, maybe if the shoe was on the other foot, I would have also read my own comment and have felt insulted as well- but just want you to know that was not my intention- I just have a poor way of expressing myself.
Sorry, Vampothika-- hope one day you will reconsider, because that skin would Rock if you made it. Don't do it for me!

No worries, Vampothika - This morning, I just re-read what I posted and I have to admit- I really DID sound like an ass after I re-read my post. Sounded like I was almost ragging you out . Even though that wasnt my intent, it DID come off that way --and I regret that.
You were very gracious to offer to make that skin in the first place, in spite of time restraints,and I appreciate that. In the future, you may get the chance to make it- and however you are inspired to make it, I KNOW it will turn out awesome, as do all of your past skins-- It will be a real "Gem" that rocks
Make it as a Master Skin and I , and many others, will definitely buy it.
That's okay -- I need some harsh reality at times ..lol!
hugs
boldy

truly no worries babe.....sometimes my responses come across as "fuck the world and fuck you too" .,..but most times, that isnt my intention....
and I also tend to get ticked off way to easily, im just truly sorry its panned out this way, in another time and demention id probably do the blind, but now i got techno mi, time bender, and 3 other blinds/suites literally lined up waiting for me to execute them
with love and respect.
Kitty.

Wow.
dont even go there...... effing smarmy comments mate....... just give it up already. dont start another two bit war over nothing, other than my name is vampothika.... so take your fucking comments and stick them where you like, just not in my proximity.
and ps. for the record, i wont be replying to anymore of your bs in this thread, me and boldyloxx have already fixed our situation without outside interference from anybody, including you. so fire your last shot, i wont even read it.
I spend most of my nights in stockholm up until 5am airbrushing with neone6 and getting paid for it, ......my life revolves around more things than sitting in a forum waiting for you to reply to me.
have a nice week.

My point was Kitty that I was trying to help someone out with your reply because you referenced my user name and a skin I did and felt that her comments were not nasty at all towards you. I did not expect that kind of nasty reply from you, so all I said was Wow. You will never hear from me again either.

just because your name was dropped dosent mean it has anything to do with you, did i take up the issue in your wb thread?
nope, i took it here, and low and behold you had to come here too.
where have you been for the last 5 years? after the way you have treated me in the past, i have every right to act defensive off the bat where
you are concerned. or do you have a selective memory and just simply forget the bs you have fed me in the past publicly?
i havent forgotten and never will. so my lil nasty reply was well within its own rights, and as for you not wanting to reply to me again either,
well, good, im glad.

I dont know if Vampothika is doing the skin now or not i just just wanted to point out this topic you may add a couple of minerals(unpolished gems) to it that interest you
https://forums.wincustomize.com/409641
with a little luck someone will try to combine them into a skin if someone isnt already doing so...
Edit : or polished stones since raw and polished minerals go well with each other in my opinion

Kitty, you OK? I don't know why you are chewing out boldyloxx, I don't think what she said on my skin was anything to get upset at, she was just saying with time constraints and such in your life, and more than likely knowing that you were moving, that you just had not gotten to it yet. I do not think she meant anything disrespectful or uncalled for at all. I am sure she there may have been reasons why she could not get back online.
