SKiLite EX beta (again) & Un-named Skin

[lectrospin]

The first skin could do with some themes and some testing if anyone's bored enough.



SKiLite EX Beta

The second one has a bug, it crashes winamp when you open either open the colour themes or coloureditor windows. It'd be cool if anyone knows why this is or if it does the same on anyones elses comp, it could do with colour themes too. Oh yeah and it needs a name too. I promise to seriously consider any suggestions!



Un-named Skin

[UUL]

Links don't work

[Mr Jones]

Did for me...

How about "Y.A.S.M.S" for the un named one...

[matt_69]

yeah links aren't working again...i did manage to see them when i saw the thread originally but now they are caput again. from what i saw they looked fairly decent, dunno about the error tho.

Ok, your crash problem is caused by this....

In your skin.xml file you have this line...

<include file="xml/system-elements.xml"/>

Sadly you have no such file defined in your set up, you do however have one called...

standardframe-elements.xml

So change that line in your skin.xml file to match.

You are also calling a system-colors.xml file that dosn't exist, and also for the sake of keeping everything in order, I'd juggle around the order they are called in the skin.xml file, otherwise you run the risk of asking for files you haven't defined, I did this to your skin.xml file...

code:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

</skininfo>

 

<include file="xml/gamma-presets.xml"/>

<include file="standardframe/standardframe.xml"/>

<include file="xml/system-colors.xml"/>(this file not included in skin) 

<include file="xml/standardframe-elements.xml"/>(changed from system-elements.xml) 



<include file="xml/player.xml"/>

<include file="xml/notifier.xml"/>

<include file="xml/pledit.xml"/>



<include file="xml/colourthemer.xml"/>

<include file="xml/vis.xml"/>

   

</WinampAbstractionLayer>

I've highlighted the bits in red that are major changes, the rest of it is just a quick shuffle of the way things are called for.

You'll need that colours file, at the minute all your lists are black text on black backgrounds...







Oh, and you have a script in there that probably won't work correctly, the play2pause.m one.

It's using the old wa3 method of detecting if winamp is playing that dosn't work in 5, this line in particular....

code:


 //determines whether Winamp is playing or paused, then shows the buttons accordingly

  if (getplayitemstring() != "") {

    Pause.show();

  } else {

    Play.show();

  }

Try replacing it with...

code:


//CHECK CORE STATUS AND DO STUFF.---------------------------------------------------

if (System.getStatus()==1) {

pause.show();

play.hide();



}

else {

play.show();

pause.hide();

}

}

nvm my dumbass remarks..i was wrong.

[lectrospin]

what does Y.A.S.M.S mean?

actually system-colors.xml and system-elements.xml should be there, i dont know where they disappeared to. I dont actually use the play2pause.maki but the play2pause2.maki which i altered cause it didnt work like you said.

Not sure why the links stopped working, they did work when i tested them, it might be some annoying anti-linking thing but i'm sure i've used yahoo before and its not been a problem. Anyway try these : -

Yet Another Stinkin' Metal Skin?

(where Stinkin' can be a number of choice words starting with 'S')

I'll take my prize money in small, unmarked bills.

[Mr Jones]

CLose but no cigar.

Yet Another Stick Mode Skin

[frisbeemonkey]

Drat, close indeed. I guess those bills are going to be very small and very unmarked I still think my acronym works too, more so if Wally had suggested the name, I suppose. Oh well, I'm not a huge fan of cigars anyways.

[VooDoo`]

I like the Skins, both
the size from the 1st skin should be changeable.

People always want a stick mode, if you dont put on in they complain en masse.

[frisbeemonkey]

Haha, no, no, not dissing your stick mode lectro. I love stickmodes too! Jones said "close but no cigar," implying that if I had been right, I would have won a cigar... And I don't like cigars.

cigars, hmm found under benches & hedges

theyr like sheeite sticks, theyre completely foul, why any1 likes them ive no idea lol

[Boricuaso]

i like the un-named one, but the buttons on the ml, i think need to match the other buttons, add some of that extrution thats around the buttons on the pl,main and visualisation to the stick mode too, do you realy need a two part stick mode? you can use the stretch thing on the stick mode an dinclude it all in one, it'll make it more confi to use.thats my 2 cents ,other than that its looking preaty kick ass, keep up the good work.

[dlinkwit27]

none of the links work for me.

[Boricuaso]

wierd i just checked them and they work. sorry its not the links.
your trying this links right

Thanks, As far as I know, the media library also uses the standard buttons, because they are within the component i dont think you can make them custom buttons. I like to keep the stick mode small enough to fit inside a window titlebar so it has to loose a little to fit stuff in it.
