My first try to actually skin something.
It's a skin to match Reluna vs by Bant. I used graphics from Bant's own vs, Mattahan's icons, and Themenorth's Velvet Waves Winamp skin as a base. That means I have to ask permission to all three
This is what I've done so far, it's about 60% done. Still a lot of work to be done....
Comments and thoughts welcomed.
That is looking like a fine peice of work. Oh, I'm definatly watching this develop. Nice work.

can't wait for this


:D
lookin good danke, great skin to go with a great theme

currently i'm using Simplicity by Correllium which tends to blend in pretty well with reluna, but this will be even better

keep up the good work
very nice, if i used winamp, i would use it
RELEASE IT NOW.....lol please, looks awesome.
Looks good mate! But I agree with FatCat (in the other thread) the buttons are abit "in your face". And, I dont think the font you have used on the top of each window matches them theme.
But aside from that, very well done! Great job.

Looks amazing
that looks sweet. to bad i use foobar now eh :\

Thx for the reply guys!
I've sent emails/PMs to get permissions... wish me luck....
Razor, yeah, I think I'm gonna make a lite version, that's more subtle and simple. And I'm still trying the fonts, it's hard to find a good small fonts.
Anyways, still a lot of work, mini browser, video, library, and bugs still laying around. All for tomorrow, now is the time for bed

the buttons could be redesigned along with using a soft white color. like what's being used in the reluna scrollbars. nice overall work though, wa2 skinning is tedious.

looking good .. the buttons need to changed though .. don't really go with the theme .. u could try removing the squares around them maybe that would help ...

Now that's quality sh!t...nice work!
IMHO, you only need to change the titlebars on the velvet waves skin and leave everything else as it is now.
Amazin work
Release it now
Thx for the suggestion and comments everyone...
I'm pretty much finished... Unfortunately I can't release it cause Mattahan haven't reply my mail... I already got permission from Bant and ThemeNorth. Anyone know easier way to contact Mattahan?
The good news is I'm making the lite version which contains no Mattahan icons, so I can release it once I'm done.
The main window is about 60% done.
What do you guys think? better? worse?
Cheers.
Danke
die neue Version sieht besser aus! Gute Arbeit - bis jetzt
Looks pretty sexay to meh. Nice work.

You guys can go to
http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/3338916/Thx again to Bant and ThemeNorth for permission and support, especially considering I'm still an amateur at this skinning business
Pls report any bugs and sugggestions...
Cheers.
Using it now, Looks great. Thanks.
It looks really nice Danke, but have you thought of maybe changing the caption buttons to the ones that are used in the actual Reluna theme? Just a thought
Good work, using right now.

Very good point...but will they look as good when they're that small?
I think they would still look good, as in
this skin and
XPamp
Glad you guys like it!
About the font, actually it's the same font as the Reluna's Theme, Tahoma. But it's really hard to make it small and make it look good, so I had to compromise...
Original Velvet Waves amp fits the theme better IMHO.

Ummm ... the image you have attached isn't Velvet waves. This is velvet waves:

Where did you get that?
What I am using so far is
Metallic Shades. I think it goes the best.
That's why I used it as a base
But if I only changed the title bar, I would not had learn how to skin winamp
I'll try to be better next time.
Anyway, I respect your honesty and opinion.

Hey danke, very nice skin btw. Are you still going to release a "non lite" version (i.e includes mattahan's GANT icons) ???
I read in the other thread that redrope is good friends with mattahan, and would be able to ask for permission. You still releasing the GANT version?

http://www.neowin.net/forum/uploads/post-4...-1065593174.jpg I think somebody actually threw this skin together for their own personal use. Basically it's just the Velvet Wave skin with a slightly modified Relunamp titlebar.
