1024 Bootskin

Thursday, December 8, 2005 by pailhead | Discussion: Skinning

Will Bootskin ever be updated to support higher rez bootskins? I thought I remember reading that BootSkin was going to support up to 1024x768. Is this going to happen at any point?

Thanks..

I don't see how this could be, since the Windows boot screen only comes in 640x480...?

I don't know if it can.. but I remember seeing on Stardocks site long ago when it first came out that eventually there'd be higher rez capability.

I caught a glimpse of Brad's SDC with BootSkin Plus in it on a WB5 Beta Preview Screenshot.

There is a high colour 1024x768 version which was created a good while ago. It looks great when working, but my understanding of why it was never released was that it wasn't possible to make it fully compatible with the video cards/systems out there and therefore it was anticipated that a huge amount of support would have been required which couldn't be justified on a free product.
