I made my first skin

Postby rtjwilde » 29 Mar 2010 23:22

I made my first skin and uploaded it to the VLC skins page but thought maybe posting a preview here would be good and offer it for sharing and critique testing etc. on the forum.

Made with the latest version of the VLC skin editor on Windows XP SP3 platform.

I have to say I'm about 2 weeks new to the VLC player and instantly fell in love with the VLC Media Player. But when I learned about the VLC skin editor and after checking it out I was blown away. I think it's the best utility to I have ever used. I had always avoided getting into making skins for other apps because of the old process just sucked. Even with mediocre skills it still sucked. Not any more. Anyway here is a preview and download link for the VLT file in a zipped windows file.

I'm actually still in the final stages for this skin. The design included a mini player skin for audio that is underway right now.

Preview is slightly cropped by forum settings but still enough to display the overall appearance.

Also everyone has the right to use it as referencing and making other versions. Moving buttons around etc. Some changes will be more difficult even requiring the use of your preferred image editor.

Nice new skin.
Thanks, I'm working on the mini for that skin right now.

Should be looking for a job but jobs in California are becoming ever so slowly extinct. Oh well.
