Finally got more free time.Just a preview of the main.I do need a bit of help on this one.

Super! I really like the blue shades. Doesn` t seem to me as if you need any help. All I can say is keep everything clear and readable and it should be a great one.

Looks good so far dam

I like the idea with the different sized cbuttons to break it up a bit..

StillWater · 12th April 2002, 15:35

Maybe make the edges sharper to make it look less "smoothed" or "blurred"?

Looks pretty good though...

its really nice skin with some sweet colours... i think the cbuttons should be sharper, but the LCD outlines are a bit too rough... they are quite pixely... smooth them out and itl be sweet. Just in case your gona use white as a background, dont, use a darker colour, itl look better, although im sure u wernt gona use white. anyway, nice skin, good luck finishing it.

The LCD looks pixelated because I compressed the jpg.
I really cant find any good color for the LCD.I tried all shades of blue but it dosent seem to be coming out too well.

dam · 13th April 2002, 19:59

Update.The eq colors dont seem to match the main much.Dont know why.I used the same technique and filters.

Still havent found a good Lcd color.The background gradient is just temporary.

Atmo · 13th April 2002, 20:07

Nice curves..

I think a slightly contrasting color would look good for the lcd..

dam · 13th April 2002, 20:09

Hmmm.I'll try that.

dam · 14th April 2002, 11:16

Update.I wonder if the bg color is ok now.

Atmo · 14th April 2002, 11:25

I cant see much changed...just the background gradient has become solid color...

Just wondering...is that the 'blue light' bevel effect from eyecandy you've used to create that effect??

dam · 14th April 2002, 11:32

Yes.Combined with one or two filters.I kinda got desperate.Whatever gradient I tried it never seemed to work out.

skinme! · 14th April 2002, 12:19

Make the eq and main together so that the rather large bevel effect you have doesn't get cut off where they meet.

Atmo · 14th April 2002, 16:32

I usually use skeletons.bmp when skinning like that....so i know everything fits together right...

dam · 14th April 2002, 17:57

Right.Did that.Thanks skinme.Sorry no ss.
