question
 
since i'm not able to make winamp skins myself, if i give someone a picture will they do it for me please? i would really appreciate it

totally depends
and if you want a skin just for lil you with just a nice picture, I would suggest a skinner program.

see link below for more information

NOW YOU TOO CAN SKIN LIKE THE PROS!!!

:weird: It doesn't matter. Just run the pic through one of those skinner.exe programs ( :hang: ) and out comes a "skin", for a lack of a better term.

just download the damn program and make your own skin. if you're too lazy to do that, then we'll be too lazy to help again.

StillWater 30th November 2002 06:33

LOL, ok, send the pic and I'll make you another one, but this is the last time! :D

I agree with Blackdog, you're being pretty damn lazy, but it won't take me any time to do it, so it doesn't really bother me. Attach the pic and I'll send the skin. Your adress still girl292001-at-yahoo-dot-com?
Actually, I still had the other one on my HDD till a few days ago. I remember deleting it from my recycle bin recently.

like i said NONE OF THE PROGRAMS I DLED WORK AND I CAN'T DL A BUNCH OF STUFF ON MY COMP B/C IT SLOWS IT DOWN AND/OR IT TAKES UP TOO MUCH SPACE B/C THERE IS NOT A LOT OF ROOM ON MY COMP TO STORE THINGS A

i wanted to see what this would look like

With one of my wonderful foresights:

It would look like shit. That pic is too big to fit perfectly into a Winamp skin. It would look stretched and skewed, and then the buttons with the cheap skinner.exe bevels would screw it all up, along with the time/vis display, and text.

Then again, it's not long enough to fit into the three main windows of Winamp, so that'll contribute, too.

Picture skins just don't work unless you make them yourself, and how can none of the programs you download not work? Obviously you're doing something wrong. Explain the problem and we'll try to help you make your own skin.

yeh, the SA of Sarah would be obscured by the visualsation area, and the "I need you" and "You are the one that I adore" would be all but totally covered up by the EQ bars.

But I'm sure that you could do something similar which avoided these problems. Just take a look at any skin, and have a look at the parts which are obviously going to cover up your design, such as the visualisation area, the EQ bars, the scrolling-text area, etc. and draw it again so that the bits you want to show through in the skin won't be obliterated by those parts. :)
