I started skinning again!

Lain · 22nd February 2002, 00:58

I took a really long break from skinning. I think it was the lack of creativity that I had over the past couple of months.

I came across this picture that I thought was perfect to skin.

It's not finished yet. I have most of the major parts done except for the playlist, and I still have to do the numbers, text, and some other stuff, but tell me what you think of it so far.

Cool, I like the black-and-white image. Though I'm not sure about introducing any red to it. Is there gonna be any more red?

Welcome back.

The PL looks a bit plain. Perhaps you could introduce some of the dots that are at the bottom right of the EQ down the right hand side and some other random stuff from the pic into it?

Lain · 22nd February 2002, 15:29

I took out most of the red, I still have some touching up to do on the playlist, and I'm not sure if it's too busy or cramped.

Well what do you think of it?

skinme! · 22nd February 2002, 16:01

That's nice but I think you should work in the edges of the playlist areas better by atually having borders (don't have to be straight) on the main area, and the timer display. Perhaps just delete the extra lines that go nowhere. Right now it just looks like a cool pattern with white bits in the way (which I know it is) but you should work it in.

Cool skin man, not my type, but it looks cool.

Keep up the work

at the bottom left of her face there is what looks like 2 edges of a box, is that intentional? And the on/auto buttons look too hand drawn, the rest looks more polished (especially the eq bars).

yes, I'm still skinning this thing.

I'm pretty much done with the first 3 windows. What you guys think? And thanks for all of your help!

Indeed! ... but where's the Preset button?!

Lain · 30th March 2002, 19:16

I didn't want to put one in. I tried it and it didn't go very well with the skin.

Atmo · 30th March 2002, 19:19
