Aha, thank you!

If you're interested, here's a preview of what I'll call Scamelon 2.0.

It's a much more drastic revision of Bee-liever's version than I planned, thanks to my breaking it and merging it with the dummy skin to fix it (you'll still see vestiges of the dummy skin in some places - I'll get to those) and flailing around trying to figure out which piece goes where.  But the major changes are the reduction/unification of the color scheme and a similar treatment to the gradients.

I don't promise it'll look very good with any layout other than mine yet.  (Don't mind the pink font - that's a highlighting thing.)



Any advice/suggestions on how to make the tabs in the Track Details panel work well, or how to get a light border all the way around the sidebars without also introducing a line across the top of the toolbar?

Thanks, Steven!

And nice work on the bitmap, Bee-liever!

Thanks scampbll, but the credit goes to BinghiFire.
He did all the hard work creating the images and layout for the player, I just tweaked the settings a bit and compiled it through the Skin Creator.

It was fun doing this skin - a real community effort

It is.    And has given me great appreciation for your skills.  I'm still figuring everything out.

Thanks for sharing this skin  Looks really fresh and attractive!

I like the idea of posting a splash screen alongside screenshots of the skin.
And especially this one is very original.

Well done

Can anybody advise me on what's up with my Preferences border?  The normal window border is fine.  I checked the default skin and Darknight Blue, and those look okay, so it must be my skin.



Here's the current file, if it helps: https://www.box.com/s/kjvb2fxbeshh1eo9b1np

Edit: now it's fine, and I'm not sure what I changed.  It had been doing that for a while.  I'll keep an eye on it.

using a base64 decoder, it advises that the following are not in a valid base64 format
FormBorderBottom
FormBorderLeft
FormBorderRight

It's possible that when you've split those lines into 76 character lengths you may have introduced a stray spacing character

[psychoadept]

Since I've done the whole base64 thing by trial and error, I'd buy that.    Thanks!

If it happens again, I'll take a closer look.


Edit, unrelated: Bee-liever, could I trouble you for the re-colored melons image without the splash screen stuff on top?  I had a little idea I want to try out...

minor update to standard skin
see first post for details

[psychoadept]

Nice work!  I'd wondered if someone was going to take advantage of those new elements soon.
