Where'd my skin go???

Mr Magus · 23rd August 2004, 18:30

Ok, I submitted a tag a while ago, can't remember how long ago. It was a skin called "Misundaztood" My computer got wiped and I went to the skins search to find it again so I could have it again, but it wasn't there. Luckily I found the skin in a backup I had done before the fiasco. So, I went on to resubmit it, but it says that a component of that name already exists.

Any feedback or help would be appreciated.

The first one is still in the database, it has however been removed from public download as it's incomplete, no gen window, no video windows.

Same goes for the one you just tried to submit, rejected.

Do not publish incomplete skins; every skin should at least have the Main, Equalizer, Play List, Video and General windows skinned, The AVS and Minibrowser windows are no longer required, but include them non the less for legacy support, oh go on.

Oh, and I rejected your other skin ,yin-yan , as well, same reason, no gen/video windows.

Ah, ok. Yeah, I got the email today. When I made the skins, those weren't required. Thanks for the info.
