Man ... I am so bored.

So, with that I played around ... What do you think? A piece of shyte ya?

Ahh, well sometimes it's fun just to do something...I haven't finished a skin in so long I felt like playing around. I know I'm not skinning really anymore (retired). But, I couldn't resist as I have free time.

In any event...I think its ok, definately clean and uncomplicated...

Same skin for now...

This is the same so far...but, will deviate from its other...

I had an idea to do something for each of the elements.

Glass-Sky - Blue
Glass-Forest - Green
Glass-Core - Red
Glass-Wings - White

All the color variants are basically mocked...just doing additions for each that denotes it's hyphenation.

Sky - Will have as much transparency as I can give it.
Forest - Will have tree's and leaves.
Core - This one will be fun (cracks, fire and lava).
Wings - I haven't a clue...but, should be interesting.

No Inspiration at all...just playing around.

Going from scratch...So, I have no idea...perhaps, my memory is using familiar designs that I have seen over the years...can't fault that.

Many Many skins out there...

Here is all 4 in 'preview'

The metal is going...didn't match the simple elegance I was after...though, each will have it's own buttons, controls and slides. As well as quite a bit of other changes...Backgrounds, Animations and etc.

Wings is really sexy, feel free to finish that!

By the way, I've been waiting for your opinion on element! It is your fault I don't do minimalistic skins anymore. Least you can do is tell me how I'm doing!

EDIT/ By the way, check this http://www.winamp.com/skins
seven months or so featured, 700 000 downloads. Your skin is doing very well.

SEX APPEAL UP IN HERE!

First: To much duplication in Elements. The buttons do not fit with the overall design application. Additionally, the blur + straight lines do not seem to mix very well.

Second: Slick Series Redux (I never wanted the Playlist) to go with the skin...I figured you'd change some more of it...but, it is all good.

Third: Update to Core - I've gotten a majority of what I needed.

Lastly: My Skins suck so don't pay attention to anything said above.

I'm still in the middle of getting used to cs4 as well. Element is my first cs4 skin so far.

A lot more added and cleaned...mocked up to the bg for the playlist. Again these are all one skin just variations and differences between each.
