DBZ skin's own section for skin searches!
 
:cool:

I think that the winamp website under the skins section should give DBZ skins it's own section, where you can only find DBZ winamp2 skins! I think it's a good idea, because there's a HUGE ammount of DBZ winamp2 skins. I think the DBZ fans have earned it, making amazing looking DBZ skins that compare to many other great winamp2 skins. Thanks for reading my concern.

99% of those skins are generated with skinner.exe or some proggie like it.

just a joke MR J, no reason to bring out the torture materials

StillWater 30th July 2002 14:51

I've seen DBZ mentioned here before. What the hells is it? I'm thinking a WWF wrestler, a TV show about badass kungfu fighting chicks with tight tops and big boobs instead of muscles, I'm thinking a boy band for the slightly older market, help me out here...

Mr_Tough_Guy 30th July 2002 15:45

anime based on a longrunning manga series, main character is an alien (monkey), who was sent as to earth as a kid to take it over, but he became a nice guy when he bumped his head, and now saves the day on a regular basis, it's kinda like a animated soap opera with kungfu and weird hair. it was very loosly based on a chinese myth about a monkey king the one which also spawned the tv series monkey magic

StillWater 30th July 2002 15:48

Dammit. Anime was originally going to be my first guess.

StillWater 30th July 2002 15:58

Actually, I've been thinking about this for a while now. It's kind of in the same vein as the original post, so I'll mention it here:

I've thought about it for a while, and I think it would be a really good idea if I had my own category. It would be easy to implement - all the skins made by me would go into one category - situated somwhere near "top staff rated" "most recent, etc. But, if you can, please don't make the font on the link so small like all the other links, I think that font size is crappy. Make it a bigger link than that please.

Mr Jones 30th July 2002 17:09

You have your own section already, the tab at the top of the page links to the skin DB right?

Man, I almost needed binoculars - that's how far off I saw that one coming from :D

/////By the way, if you don't like the idea, just say so - but don't make a joke of it, please - because I'm quite serious.

BlueBalls 30th July 2002 17:29

DBZ is a great show, but it doesn not deserve its own section, neither does britney, or the simpsons, either way their all cartoons...ooooo im sorry didnt mean to upset u, its an "anime" like its any different then any other colored animated series

cartoons.

dam 30th July 2002 17:41

Bah just dump all the dbz skins in the generated category.

Reanimation 30th July 2002 17:49

Just dump all the DBZ skins... and the rest of the anime skins... all suck.

dimichan 30th July 2002 18:52

*shrugs* You don't have to like anime, any more than I have to like Britney, or some of the other subject matter people choose to skin - but saying "they all suck" doesn't make ya any better than the people who review skins with 0 stars "Britney sux0rz!" or some such nonsense. Most image skins are skinner.exe skins, but I've seen a few really nice ones from the people in this forum, each deserves to be judged on it's own merits. Sorry dudes, not trying to be belligerent, but as someone who worked for a Japanese anime site (DBZ actually) and made a few non-skinner anime skins (and watched them get lost in the dreck too), that irritates me.

Omnitarian 30th July 2002 19:13

Not to be a butthole, but I belive blackdog said it best...

If we did stuff like this, we'd have to make forty-two hundred different categories for Britney spears,Homer's Brain,what-have-you...

Anyone else noticed the search function seems to be working MUCH better these days too? :up: :D

Atmo 30th July 2002 21:12

Anime doesnt even deserve its own category IMO, its too narrow a description anyway. But to make a specific DBZ category is rediculous.

Mr_Tough_Guy 30th July 2002 21:19

Mr Jones 31st July 2002 21:49

And you know what, if I've got anything to do with it, it won't have it's own category before to long, I've proposed that the "anime" section gets renamed to something like "cartoons" or "animation".

:) , yah, point and blame me, see if I care :)

Jellby 1st August 2002 13:49

Well... if it's inteded for other ugly american cartoons as well as for ugly american japanese-looking cartoons, I guess it would be better not to name it "anime"

Hey, I think Science Fiction films are pretty cool, but I don't think they deserve their own skin category. They can easily go with all the film skins - and anime skins can easily live with other cartoon/animation skins. Now that I think of it, though, an arthouse film category would be pretty cool. That way I'd be able to find an arthouse skin that wasn't my own :(

(But fat chance of that happening, since it seems that they won't even give my skins their own category. Humphf! )

_Blackdog_ 1st August 2002 18:02

i didn't bother to read any posts except the first one...

you know what i think? dragon ball z can lick the llama's nuts. god anime sucks. and besides all the dragon ball z skins are already in one catagory. the generated catagory.

StillWater 1st August 2002 18:13

Actually, Chiquita Chad has made a DBZ skin...nowhere near as good as eg. System of a Down (one of my faves), but still, no skinner.exe...

///But I did appreciate the humour of that quote, by the way ;)

Hmmm, that's funny. I believe that the people who make good anime skins are the people sticking up for anime in the forums. Hey, didn't I already bring up this topic in another thread?

_Blackdog_ 2nd August 2002 15:48

dunno why, but seems to me that a large percentage of people who come into the forum and whine are anime skinners/fans. that and the fact that i find an obsession with a cartoon rediculous make me dislike these people who are all hard core anime.

Well, it seems like every other post is a bitch, complaint, or whiner, recently.

_Blackdog_ 2nd August 2002 15:58

thats why i dont come here much anymore

Saotome 2.0 5th August 2002 18:12

Ah, here we go, this is only the fourth time this week I've had to give my anime argument:

1. Anime exists because it is an art form.
2. Anime is often judged by the likes of Pokemon (gag) and Digimon (puke). These are a few Americanised cartoons that are no longer considered anime.
3. An animation MUST, I repeat MUST, be owned by a Japanese company to be considered "anime". If it is not, it is a "cartoon".
4. Saying "all anime sucks" because of a few examples is just like saying that all women are whores because you see a few loose women i9n the world. (bad example, don't kill me)
5. Before I take seriously any comment made by certain nameless forum browsers, I should expect a list of anime series which they watched. But since this is probably not going to happen, I suggest that all commments made by laymen just be ignored.

And, oh, yes, I don't want to see this again:

StillWater 5th August 2002 18:29

but you gotta admit, at the moment, Anime skins are getting pretty special treatment. I mean, anime get their own category, but bugs bunny, matrix, austin powers, kieslowski, frankenstein all have to share a category. Of course, this is a good thing, because no doubt if it wasn't like this, everyone would be complaining about the hundreds of anime skins clogging up the movie category.

Anyway, a DBZ category is going a bit too far. :D

Atmo 5th August 2002 18:32

Look, winamp.com isnt an anime site, it just has a category that all the cartoon skins go into, which IMO is incorrectly labelled as anime.

I actually enjoy anime, i like neon genesis evangelion, and watch dbz occasionally (I find it humorous, but addictive), but do i think it deserves its own category? no. Anime has a niche market, and those that like it love it and those that dont hate it. That doesnt mean that it still deserves its own category.

Anime is after all, japanese cartoons. Does that mean we should make a category for american cartoons? Or australian cartoons??

A single category named cartoon or animation would suit best, then theres no complaints that a few american cartoon skins are ruining the precious anime category.

Saotome 2.0 5th August 2002 18:34

I know that, but I'm sick of people like Blackdog insulting anime when they haven't probably watched any quality anime. Even I haven't seen every anime series out there, but I don't go around judging a book by its cover and a few front pages.

[edit]I wouldn't mind if it was labelled "animation", because that would be correct. Please stop posting right before I do, Atmo, it drives me nuts![/edit]
