Description: This is a preview of a Skin I'm creating - over a windows95 skin, so no complain about parts of it loooking like windows, it was the easiest skin I found to start from - based on crystal icons, keramic style and keramic wine colors.
Keep in mind this is just a preview, but please, comments and sugestions are welcome.Last changelog:
Finished playlist Changed file format do zip Changed tux to X logo Included some xcf files for people willing to edit this skin
Well, the problem is that there's no way for a xmms/winamp theme to detect user colors, because the theme is just a bunch of bmp files.
Maybe in winamp3 themes this is possible, but I don't know and they aren't supported by xmms and noatun yet.
One possibility is to build skins with layers separated on the parts that should be color-changed and then just use some kind of colorize.
Unhapply I know how to do it very well on Paint Shop Pro, but in Gimp ... well, I just can't get the colors the way I want :(
What do you mean with keramik wine colors?
You should add keramik window decoration and change colorscheme to something like here: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=1750
And btw, very interesting skin.
Keramic Wine is a color scheme I've made and use on my desktop a lot.
I was going to use keramic kwin theme but It's too large to fit well on the little xmms titlebar, so I've decided to keep it for later, when I plan a blue version of this theme.
Well, winamp skins are basically a zip file (the wsz is just a .zip) with some bmp files.
For creating a new one the best thing is to get one that is very clean and then edit over it.
I'm using the Gimp for editing the graphics, then when I want to test I make a zip or a tar file with the bmp files (plus some xfc (gimp file with layers) for making life easier).

I like it but please change the colors... make it a bit more neutral... use kde standard colors. Just a suggestion... /Björn
I personally like the colours, but we need an equalizer. Keep up the good work.

little remarks- I would prefer a more original icon instead of the classical little penguoin-and the o'clock anyway I'm waiting your skin to download
You can download it now. It's not finished yet and need some polish.
It is good, I would like to have the finnished product however.
But things get time and I have a lot of php to program. I'll try to take some time for finishing the playlist until monday.
