New skin: Pixelpusher
1 Attachment(s)
I didn't steal the name from Tac-Man. I honestly just did this this morning and read Tac-Man's post before posting this. Honest coincidence. Name suggestions are welcome, but I prefer the name 'Pixelpusher.'
Like Tac-Man, I'm trying to score with originality in this one, but I'm going for aesthetics, too. Inspired by Connect-X! It's skinme!, not skinyou!! And in fact, this is a thread for two: Pixelpusher, and Nuclear Memory 2. Out of pure greed, I decide Pixelpusher shall get the first post. :D Suggestions welcome. Colour suggestions, too. Maybe that blue is weird. |

Nuclear Memory II.
Again, suggestions welcome. |
Oops. I read the rest of Tac-Man's thread. Okay. Maybe 'Pixelpusher' is outta the question. Name suggestions! Yagh!
|
i wouldn't use the name pixelpusher. its the name of a former forum member. here's his website:
http://pixelpusher.freeservers.com/W...troduction.htm its also the name of a site for gfx/html tuts http://pixelpusher.com even if you did think of it on your own, i wouldn't use it. about the skin... its interesting, but i can't say its my style. and nm2 looks cool :up: |
Okay, any name suggestions? Preferably something with 'pixel' in it. lol.
|
it certainly looks different, reminds me of those old 8 bit games, love the colours :D
|
It's a Lego-Reminiscent piece of retro-art. :D

gorgeous. i can see some c-x influences but i think it's much more. It's funky and i want it. I think you should call it spixelise. coz i rule your thought processes. and i have dirt on you.
nuc mem2 looks good too... i'm really into the first one though and at the mo i can concentrate on two different ideas. sue me for $gazillions |
Spixelize or Spixelise? I think it's a 'z.' "Pixelize."

Ah! The almighty Cleanup has solved it! By moving the EQ display a pixel higher, he sacrifices functionality for aesthetics! Though it's still functional!
Our hero saves the day again! Woo-hoo! |
Hey, that's nice. Fairly unique, too. Good colors. Short senetences. Yeah. :)
|
its looking great, why not go crazy with an alpha-mask, have transperent pixils at the edges, like the logo of xerox, with the "X" going blocky at one point, just have the blocks sculpted out with the alpha blend
|
Ahm, that sounds like something Photoshop-ish. :D
I think the break up of the border wouldn't go to will with the skin. Lack of a border makes for a messy skin. Like Visional Memory. :p |
hey, not bad! will definetly download it when it's finished!

You should have made "Spixelized" a few months ago. It reminds me of a summer in Santa Barbara: colourful and plasticky. :p If plasticky isn't what you were going for, then perhaps tone down the light yellow and light blue highlights. I like your font choice, but the size makes it a bit difficult to read.
Nuclear Memory II looks alright, but I think I like Nuclear Memory better at this point. Myself, I don't like skins with small buttons because they make a mockery of my lack of coordination. :rolleyes: :D Still, I'm glad you kept the light green colour scheme (I'm not completely sold on the orange, though). The titlebars seem too narrow to me, but do I like the two oddly shaped borders in the main. :) |
Alright, what if I got rid of the transparency and made the Main and EQ of NMII like the PL and MB?
|
Do you still accept name suggestions? Here's mine: Pixelpiece.
Nice skin, by the way :up: |
spixelise - 'coz I'm British.
and e-raser: what? are you thinking about wa3? |
nope, i'm talking about alpha transperancy for winamp 2
|
there is no alpha transparency for wa2
|

Any bugs other than the PlayPaus sonuvabitch, notify me in this thread.
|
hmmm...lesse...
no inactive clutterbar, and the winshade mode has the shared pixel bug. since it looks like you are gonna use transparancy on the top anyways, I would just blacken that out an fix it |
Cleanup: that's the transparent main ws trick I was telling you about.
Hmm... I like. But then it is Connect-X rewrapped :D (jus' kidding ya) |

What? Inactive clutterbar? There's an inactive clutterbar? The clutterbar is that OAIDU thing. |
yeah there is
check the display properties and uncheck the always display clutterbar tab...it should give you a blank white spot where your clutterbar is whenever you aren't pressing buttons on it. Ya learn something new everyday cleanup :D oh and the bottom letter is sposed to be a V for visualization. |
How do I skin an inactive clutterbar?! :igor: I know I've done it before. Now I forgot.
|
ok...to the right of the top one, make another clutterbar...um...bar.
thats the inactive state. I think its in the skinners atlas too, I don't remember for sure off the top of my head. |
Pixelocity is a name that comes to mind.
