No GUIOs for grayhaze
Tuesday, March 9, 2004 by grayhaze | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I just wanted to let everyone know that it's highly unlikely that I'll be entering the GUI Olympics this year. I have a couple of half-finished skins which probably would have stood a moderate chance of doing well, but they're probably going to stay that way for a while.
Rather than go through the pressure of trying to complete them for a deadline, I'll probably be releasing them at a later date, when they're completed to a good standard.
This decision is partly due to the fact that over the past week I've had my time taken up by something a bit more important to me. Let's just say that a certain thread I started as a joke a while ago can safely be d e l e t e d now...

Damn. It would've been nice to see something like a metalX3 (and I guess thats the thread you're talking about). I remember you posting a teaser shot of what you were working on. Just take care of yourself and release it 'when it's done'

I think GH is right...some things do come before the greatest contest in skinning history...that probably won't happen again for another 2 years and and....bah! It's ok GH, I like girls more than WB skins too.

I'm beginning to wonder myself. I've spent so much time playing with desktop themes that I have let Winamp get way on ahead of me. If I find that the skin I am making is half-assed I think I'll just release it after the Olympics. Given the overall complexity of all the apps in question, it seems like a May, June, or even July deadline would have been more apt.
I mean really, what kind of Icon set can you make from scratch in a month? I would rather have seen people's best work than stuff that was rushed to get finished, no matter how good it is.

You could always send the skin for somebody else to finish and then upload as a team.

3rd event: Impossible to answer seriously emotionally charged questions starting with the ever discomboobalating "Am I fat?" followed up with "Why do you Love me" then "How do you know you love me?" and maybe "Do I look like I've lost weight?" just to keep you off balance!
Luck to you young Grayhaze, we will sing of you in bar's with a tearful memory of days past.
Then all laugh our butts off and swill a few more in your name
