REQUEST: Since the demise of 'MegaUpload.com' there are some skins that are not available any more in this thread
If anyone got replacement links the following skins I would greatly appreciated it if you can let me know so I can update them
So far I've found the following one's are missing:-
  • Ranma-Chan Hentai Skin - Made by mrx1983
    ranmahentai.png
  • Theme Manga - made by Nairolf
    1012121940e1bbe934e23b94d7.png.thumb.jpg
  • Left4Dead - Made by NextGen
    left12.jpg
DISCLAIMER: Almost all pictures/files are hosted on other sites
- so if there's no picture shown or there are broken links - Sorry, but I have no control over them


If you're looking for Skins/backgrounds for the alternative 'iMenu' homebrew
- You will find info to them in Terminator02 'iMenu Step-by-step guide thread'



xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Useful Programs/Links xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Download DSTWO Skin editor (v0.100609)

This program is under development & so the above version may not be the most recent.
Visit this DSTwo forum thread to check for latest version
4658963211_50a316b94d.jpg
Please note that Bugs may exist in the program and should be reported in the above mentioned Forum post
_______________________________________________________
Download Alternative 'DS Skin Maker' (v.48)

2s63slt.jpg
This is another program in development - any problems/comments/suggestions please post in this thread
_______________________________________________________
Download DS2 Tools

Filetrip Mirror Download
DS2Tools01.png
DS2Tools02.png
DS2Tools is a program you install onto your DSTwo that allows you to download skins directly on your DS via WiFi
(more information about 'DSTools' can be found here)

If you don't happen to have WiFi, you can visit http://www.twoneskin...downloadtwo.php which is the site that actually holds the skins avaliable
Please note that most of the website is in French & you need to sign up to upload new skins
(I will try to keep this thread updated with the skins avaliable from that site style_emoticons/default/wink.gif )
_______________________________________________________
Download DS2 Skin Installer

(more information about 'DS2 Skin Installer' can be found here)

'.ds2skin' Wiki page is also avaliable
(Please note that not all skins here are available as ds2skin packs - due to the wishes of the original skin makers not wanting their skins hosted on other sites)

4991551334_39021d2222.jpg
This pack includes a PC-side program that will allow you to make '.ds2skin' packages
(which can contain skins for EOS, GBA, SNES, Loading, Plugins and iReader programs)
It can as well install those '.ds2skin' packages into the appropriate folders on the SD card.

Also included is a DSTwo '.ds2skin installation' plugin program that can install any '.ds2skin' it find on the SD card
This is another program in development - any problems/comments/suggestions please post in this thread
_______________________________________________________



There are more available skins found on the Chinese Forums

For some of them you need to sign up & 'reply' to see the link
But 'WolfMasterJW' has kindly created a 'complete skin pack' that contains many skins from
the Chinese and English SC forums as well as those found here
Find it @ http://filetrip.net/file.php?id=12846

OK - I haven't got my DSTwo yet, but some people have... and yet no post either on Supercard forums or here about 'skins'
(Guess those who have a DSTwo been too busy trying out the features)

Anyway - I don't know how this'll actually looks like (or even if it works) but basically it's just the 'Pink' skin that's been turned 'Grey',
but if it does work - at least I can have the unique claim of 'publishing' the first DSTwo skin
laugh.gif


Anyway - here the link

Can someone try it & tell me if it does work or not.....


could you make a dark blue version

thanks

All you did was desaturate all of the Pink skin files...
Dam !!! you figured it out... although I did say 'basically it's just the 'Pink' skin that's been turned 'Grey'' - I just didn't mention HOW I turned it Grey
So I'm guessing it does work then ???? - If so, then I'll try & 'colourise' the skin to make a 'Dark Blue' one for LUGiA

Any other colours wanted ?? - might as well try & create a whole package in one go

Thanks dude! If you would be kind enough to make a green one as well, I'd be really happy!

Edit: made my own version with greyscale buttons too. Credits go to CannonFoddr for the original of which I greyscaled the buttons too, and added some arrows to the sliders.

As requested - see first post for Blue & Green skins

PLEASE let me know if they work OK or not - I'd really like to know
(Hopefully I should be getting my DSTwo in 3-4 days)

EDIT:
to Berthenk: I've had a look at your skin/theme... I'm not sure but it seems like your graphics are 24-bit colour depth, so they may not work right
(I think they need to be 16-bit colour depth) - if you need to convert them there is a way using GIMP - see this post on how i do it

So I'm guessing it does work then ???? - If so, then I'll try & 'colourise' the skin to make a 'Dark Blue' one for LUGiA

Any other colours wanted ?? - might as well try & create a whole package in one go

Hahah, I guess I misunderstood. I thought you meant you created a grey skin. My bad. Anyway, I'll put these on my card and see how the work. I'm assuming if you didn't add or remove files it should work fine.

Also, I've been working on my own skin, and I noticed that the UI system is pretty much like Acekard R.P.G.'s system, so I wonder if it's possible to do Date as well. When I tried using the standard method (day_numbers.bmp, year_numbers.bmp, ini file settings) it didn't work as expected, it tried to use the clock numbers to generate the date and calendar. So I'm trying to think of a workaround for this, or some way to trick it into working right...

This is the upper screen so far as planned in photoshop:

Dude, that looks slick! I'll see if I can make something original, unlike my skin copied from CannonFoddr with some extra black and white filter.

I've done some digging into the DSGAME.nds file to see what it's doing in terms of calendar and date based settings, and I've found it only loads the clock images, and not day and year. This is a shame, because now if I want to get a calendar working, I'm either gonna have to hack it, or wait for an update and hope they add the calendar features.

Also: The skins are all working, CannonFodr.

Arrgghhh... A gold/yellow one now !!!!!... why not just say all the colours you wanted & I'll get round to them as I can, instead of one post @ a time

As for installation... I can only guess 'cos I haven't got a card... but just unzip them & you should have a folder called 'grey'..'blue'... (whatever)

Then copy that folder into '/_dstwo/ui/' folder (you should have 'pink and 'silver' folder there already)

Put DSTwo into the DS, switch on & boot up
Then (& this I'm totally guessing now) press [start] > [skin] > & hopefully the you should see pink,silver,blue, etc etc > select the one to try & press [A] to select

EDIT: Ok 'Yellow' on first post now.....can't quite get a 'gold' effect just by 'colourising'

Edit 2: Oh I've just noticed something.. there's more graphics in '/_dstwo/plug/' and '._dstwo/patch/' folders that are 'pink'.
I'm guessing these are for the 'main menu' screen (the one that shows the Moonshell etc shortcuts) - so although the skins I've done make the menu popups etc a different colour - I'm guessing the shortcuts main screen will STILL be 'pink'

Can some1 confirm this please !!!

If so then I guess that 3 types of 'skins' will need to be made
'/UI/' folder is for DS_Games
'/plug/' folder is for initial Start screen
'/patch/' folder is for the 'Ingame' play menu (the 4 save slots/ slowmo etc options)
