Fancy that!....Actually doing some skinning...
Thursday, April 3, 2003 by Jafo | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
With all the controversy[s] lately....War, rips, lame excuses for spitting and moaning....recalcitrant youth personally requesting their butts be kicked....that sort of thing, it's refreshing to just get back to the REAL THING [tm]......SKINNING.
Just grass-roots stuff...a WindowBlinds skin 'ported' from the graphics used in my next LiteSTEP theme which originated right here on Wincustomize.com, thanks to Alexandrie.
Being an old-fart, with a pathological mistrust of SkinStudio, I'm yet again skinning with Notepad [actually 'Texturizer', which is superior], and Good old PSP6. I'm doing this all with the latest 'WB beta', but just to be different and demonstrate personal individuality, which is what, after all, skinning is ALL about, the WB skin will be LiteSTEP-specific, that is, none of the typical Explorer shell - XP particulars will be handled at all.
Maybe that 'stage' can be achieved by diving into SkinStudio later, something I'd need to do on several other skins of mine.
After that, it'll be a simple ICQ equivalent, and of course a WinAMP 2x skin....sorta a mini 'suite', but really what I normally tend to do with my LS stuff.
Oh, yes.....needless to say it'll be grey [ish]....
