Skin request by a noob

Postby OliverR40 » 14 Jun 2009 05:26

Hi, I've got a request for a skin that i think might be easy to make...
After v0.8.6 VLC looks different, which gives me a problem, since I like how 0.8.6 looked, but also want to be up-to-date.
So if anyone could make a VLC 0.8.6 skin or show me where to find such a skin, and how to install it, that would be great!
Thank in advance ^_^

The 0.8.6 interface is not a skin, it an interface based on the wxWidgets library. Its functionality could not be reproduced in a skin. The skins system is a totally different interface than the default interfaces of VLC.

If you would have searched the forums before you posted you would have known. There are already many posts about that.

And use VLC 1.0 where you have a way to make the look like 0.8.6.
