MikroAMP skinning competition

Mr Jones · 8th September 2001, 18:27

Yes Folk's it's a MikroAMP skinning competition !!!!

Yes, time for some tiny skin fun !, rules are simple, nothing old, I've seen a lot of MikroAMP's so I'll know

, no matching winamp skins required, just MikroAMP skins, maximum of 3 entries per person.

Sweet prizes for the winners !

You'll be judged by THEMike,(MikroAMP creator) and Me (MikroAmp un-official marketing guru

)

So get skinning, points awarded for originality, functionality and downright cleverness!

All submitted skins will also be packaged into a skin pack after the competition closes.

For those who need an accurate template, I've attached one to this post.(thanks cappy)

Have fun !!!!

BullGawD · 8th September 2001, 18:51

Suweet!!

Are there any rules as to platform (are we just supposed to skin for 98, or Me/2000 as well?)

Duk · 8th September 2001, 20:23

Dammit! More work.

Oh that's it, BG ... stir things up by starting a hot debate on the tray icon. lol

Mr Jones · 8th September 2001, 20:52

Good point BG, ok for the sake of arguement...

Make sure your tray icons work on all supported windows platforms, 95, 98, 98se, ME, 2000, XP

So the windows 16 colour pallete in the tray would make it universal to all formats.

Duk · 8th September 2001, 20:58

If cappy hasn't started on a fresh 3 already, he should be allowed to sub the three he just posted up the other day in his "What I did this Summer" thread. Otherwise, we may never see Underdog.

I personally would like to see those considered in this little showcase. My buck and a half.

In that template: Is there any purpose to the little purple line just below the main pause?

It was to do with the old 79/80 pixel bug that mikroamp 2.01 suffered from, I've removed the line and re-uploaded the template, skin within the areas shown and it will work fine on 2.50

Forevever · 8th September 2001, 21:38

count me in!

Namelessv1 · 8th September 2001, 21:52

Tizight! Better get crackin on those Mikros.

cyana · 9th September 2001, 20:12

skinme! · 9th September 2001, 22:08

Cool. Now all I need is some inspiration! Don't give me a list of things, MJ, like I've seen you do before, I'm looking

Does it have to be original, fuctional and downright clever? Can't I just offer something in return?

Lucid DM · 9th September 2001, 23:13

Aww damn. School again tomorrow (in 6 hours

). Loads of homework (GCSEs) so I'll have to wait 'til weekend...
Well, at least I'll have a lot of time to think of ideas

Forevever · 9th September 2001, 23:30

I've been working on it since about 3 hours ago, I've got 3 already

I'm on a roll!

Riksruin · 10th September 2001, 12:22

The Only Lynx · 10th September 2001, 14:30

The Only Lynx · 10th September 2001, 20:25

cappy17 · 10th September 2001, 20:35

Get thee back, son of satan, to the roiling inferno that birthed you! I do not need this on my schedule! Frick, I wasn't even going to visit the forums today, couldn't resist a quick peek (addiction is a terrible thing) and look what I find. Aaaargghh *Cappy begins the long slide into hell...*

MJ answered this in part, but if you want to cover your butt with users of older versions: copy the bottom line of your pause square and past it over that purple line you see.

Hey! What about the "Popping up like gopher hills" thread?

Too late anway, pal. Those are old skins. I have stronger, faster, better than before skins, geared up just for this contest. Shake and wimper in fear, merely mortal freelance-graphic-artist (and Underdog will come along one day, he's powerful stubborn.)

Jayn. Words escape me.

Mr. Bojanglez · 10th September 2001, 20:36

JAYN, WWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW

Nini · 13th September 2001, 09:53

Hey, if I submit the mikroskin of my newest wa skin (none has seen it, hehe) can I still use it for my wa skin? (just want to be sure)

Assja · 13th September 2001, 14:45

I'm in, I just got a good idea (at least it seems to be one)

Lucid DM · 13th September 2001, 18:52

I've made three already. But I'm gonna leave it a while to see if I come up with any better ones. I've called them Taus, Petrod and Blob

.

Riksruin · 13th September 2001, 20:04

the names sound interesting Lucid, i wanna see some of these mikros,

skinme! · 13th September 2001, 20:18

Working on some ideas at the moment. Unfortunately, this compettition coincides with a new skin I'm working on and a website under construction with plenty of coursework thrown in for good measure!

I'll do something tonight and possibly more later.

(sidenote: Hi Jayn. Long time, no see!)
