1st of all you've got to have a idea of how it more o less should look.
2nd you fire up your graphical proggie and make the layout.
and then you pick up a big bowl, throw in the PNG's and XML, stirr it a bit, and voila; :D

Just start with pictures, (use layers, lots of layers) after that you can crop the pictures and use xml to place the buttons and so on.

Christ - why is it that im in the netcafe cruising the winamp forums,
helping some nuubii instead of swimming in the pool? i think im going to restrict myself to only visit this place once a week until i get home :)

No offence jdrechsler :D

I'll PM him about it..
Maybe there's something wrong with his server, cos I haven't heard anything about it.

edit

anyway, I pm'd him..
