it doesn't take very long, esp if they are as simple as the ones that have been made for this theme. Not only that, but none one has any sort of animation. Basicly all these theme skins are are just a lot of copying and pasting.

and btw, I agree. Most of these match the theme, yes, but arn't that impressive to look at at all.

why do you need animation to listen to music .. that's why i use foobar .. plain and does what it's supposed to .. play music, no bloat

If you ever bothered to ventuer over to the skinnign section you woudl see that I did one based off the winamp.com site fuqtard. It was my first skin ever, but it still had volume and EQ animations. and I did a diferent style for each window, I didn't just copy and paste and add buttons where needed.

Well good, you know how. Then make one. Not tryin to flame here, just point something out: we skinners don't get payed, we do this for fun. Most of us are perfectly willing to take requests/suggestions/critizism (I am, at any rate), but if somebody just says "that sucks" it doesn't help anything. At the very least, explain WHY you think it sucks. As for the Reluna winamp skins, all 3 are very well made - maybe you don't like them, but to just call them cut and past jobs is just ignorent.

are you as stupid as the other guy? I DID MAKE ONE! maybe caps will help you understand better. I am not saying that these skin suck, they are nice, but I have seen much better. They do what they are supposed to do, match the theme, but that it is. If they didn't match a theme, I doubt they would get many downloads @ all. As for thinking it is a cut and paste job making m e ignorant, you are the ignorant one for thinking that it isn't. ahve you even looked at the skin? Each and every window is the exact same. Same titlebar, same border, same strechy sides. The only thing that is different is the amount of buttons, which was prbly noting more than a layerset that he had to hide/show/move.

You want suggestions? Why not make the playlist more like the start menu and taskbar? Also why not make the VOL/Balance sliders like the .avi's for moving files and whatnot? Also why not make the slider on the playlist match the slider for the windows? Furthermore, he coudl round the corners to match the windows for the VS. It's not that hard to do transparency. Where is the inner glow type deal that Reluna has on it's buttons? That would have been a nice addition to the c-buttons, or at least to the playlsit buttons. Or all the buttons even.

Happy now? Now can a mod move this last page or so of posts to the reuna skin thread in the skinning and customizing section so as to not derail this VS thread anymore?

Ignorance really is bliss isn't it? You and your kiss ass cronies are the one who flamed the other guy for expressing his opinion and asking a simple question.

I flame noone who doesn't deserve it. The fact of the matter is, kol, just like every other skinner out there puts his time into creating skins for us to use...for FREE...and besides you, we are all grateful. If you don't like the skin, then don't use it. Do you write to kellogg when they create a cereal you don't quite like. Do you tell them to get rid of it and add berries and then you will buy it - forget the millions of other people who like it how it is? The fact of the matter is, the only person who has any right to criticize the skin is bant, since it is his style to begin with...and bant has had nothing but good things to say about kol's work.

You are no longer worth the arguments in this thread, because you are the kind of person who has too thick of a skull to get anything past it. Feel free to respond to this however you will, because I will not stoop any lower to write an additional response.

who cares if it is for free or not? All winamp skins are free. Just because someone puts time into something means that it is great? Well hell! I'll see you later! I am going to take a 5 hour acting class, and because I spent time there, Hollywood will have to give me a part becuase I spent time on learning how to act, so that must mean I am a great actor! Time doesn't guearentee a good product. Neither does it's cost.

ok guys, just leave it be. prntscrn is free to dislike anything he wants. You are arguing over principles that you have grown up viewing differently. no matter how hard you try to make the other person understand you, you will not succeed. especially if you both keep poking away at the weaker part of eachothers arguments, instead of actually analyzing the conflict between you two, and trying to resolve it. just give it up, its probably putting you both in a mood you dont need to be in.

I am truly thankful for all of the extra work that has gone towards reluna by other artists. I think all of the work has been beneficial to the community as a whole, and i think different people will gravitate towards each of the different skins. We have a nice variety, but they are all basically ports. You cannot expect true originality from a port. PrntScrn, you would have done something differently had you created your own, i recognize this and appreciate your point of view, but i also respect the other artists interpretations of how Reluna should look once translated over to winamp, or trillian, etc.

so thanks KoL, Danke, AlanZeino2002, Baldmonkey, Nazgul, Voodoo_Freak, and Mentaleruptions. you guys have all helped make Reluna what it is today. cheers.

I've done that before. didn't work though. I wanted berries in my cocoa puffs.

Reluna is great. Bant did a great job. people make other parts to match it. They match. Some people like, some don't. Don't argue about it. If you don't like the parts available make your own and share them. maybe people will like your new part better than the old. but then they might not.

Its people like you who take us out of the business. The winamp5 skin i mdae took my days to make, and i really dont give a **** hat you think, so go and rot in hell mother ****er. If you have no respect for the hard work of Danke, myslef and KoL, go and twiddle ur fat thumbs somewhere else.

You aren't in business, you're doing this because you are artistic and like to do it. The WinAmp5 skin resembles more of a 2.x look, and I think that is why he is saying it's not that great [considering all of the things that WA5 can do]. It does match the theme great, for a classic look.

Nice reply after Bant tries cooling things down between people though, you get all fired up. Down boy.

anyway, reguardless of whether I like this skin or that one, good work and much thanks to all who make skins. i love em, i use em, and i'd have one ugly ass desktop without em...thanks again for the hard work.
