skin trouble - is there something wrong with my files?

lacesari · 16th May 2006, 03:52

Hi,
I posted a skin today, (attached) and it was rejected - the email said:

You did not submit a complete skin. Please skin all main windows then resubmit.

In Regards to Component: Sirens(147684)

I checked a couple of times and I am pretty sure that everything is there - would you please look at this and tell me what is missing?
thanks,

Video and Gen (Media Library, AVS, etc.) windows are missing. See this thread.

Hi,
Thanks for responding!
You mentioned that my skin design is missing some things: AVS and Media Library.

I know that it has the "avs.bmp" graphic, but I am not sure what the media library is... what type of file is it? Where can I find an example of it? (I don't remember anything about it in the tutorial - did I miss something?)

I would like to figure this out very much, I had fun making the skin and I think it looks good, but I want it to be complete!

Thanks!

Hey all,
Thanks again for your responses about the GEN and GENEX windows. I have included these files in my .wsz document and they seem to be working fine, however the skin was rejected again... posted as:
Component: Sirens Sunset Garden(147909)

(Same error message as before)

You're still missing the video window. Also, your Media Library is unusable, as you have set all the colors to be the same. Did you test it before you uploaded it?

lacesari · 25th June 2006, 17:40

Thanks for your reply,

I found the "video.bmp" graphic, so I'll make a version of that.

How do I set the Media Library colors?

Sorry for the lag - I hadn't used the video window or media library functions before and these graphics are not in the winamp site's skinning instructions (under classic skins). Should I be looking somewhere else for instructions?

this link has instructions on the gen and video graphics, but i couldn't figure out how to change the media library...
