Someone....PLEASE.......
Monday, October 20, 2003 by Hochie | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I really like the Sportsman skin...however it has never been updated for WB4 and XP....is there anyone here that would be willing to port this to that format???? Sent email to Alexandrie and she said she had no plans to do it so am hoping someone else with much more talent than myself will do it.....PLEASE! ! !

From what I see the skin already has WinXP support. Here is the link, let me know if it may be the wrong skin.

What else were you looking for it to have?

I downloaded it and took a better look and yes you are right. The log off, shell styles and spin buttons need to be done along with the control panel.
The only problem is that anyone cannot just redo this without permissions. I played around with the log off and can up with something very nice to go with the skin using images from the skin. It would still need the log off buttons though. Something fun to mess around with without getting into a whole skin.

Keila...sounds great...am sure if you would send Alexandie an email she would probably grant permission as she had told me she was too busy now and had no plans to update it....

It is a sweet skin for sure, Sportsman, Paean, Yeilid and Burning are all skins I really like.
Paean and Melee for a wall are my desktop at this moment
But Sportsman and Something Amber of BoXXi's walls will be it with an update done
