--------------------------------------

After a rather long production time, I'm very proud to release M3 Duotone; version 1.0. This is an M3 formatted interface skin for use on M3-compatable firmware’s. This particular skin took a while because of the firmware brake between E20 and E21. This release caused an issue due to the fact that it added two new icons to the main menu. I had roughly half of the skin completed when this change occurred, and because of this, I do have the first three colors completed fully in the E20 icon format. I decided I would release these as well in case there are still users of this version. You can find these here:

That aside, I hope you fully enjoy M3 Duotone for your M3. Feel free to download all versions, and tick your favorite in the poll. Thank you for your support and as usual, questions and comments are warmly welcomed.

Thank you. Knowing that people actually use the skin makes it completely worth it for me. Glad you like it.

Nices skins, how do i apply these to my m3 with e20 firmware?

 

[Costello]

Wow, impressive!
I'll be using your skins. Although I havent picked up a favorite yet

I can't decide, they all look great.

 

[seasmus5]

anyone got any tips on how to install these great looking themes?

GCTonyHawk7's skins are all great, been using your moonshell ones for a while now

Thanks for the skins, looks sweet. (Love how they're the same as the moonshell duotone series, I'm going to use blue again ^^)

EDIT: to above post, create a folder called BACKING on your card, put the skin files in it, pick the skin in settings.

Thank you for all the compliments. I really glad you all like it. For those not know how to apply them, follow these steps:

- create a folder called "BACKING" in the root directory of your CF or SD card
- put the BACKNDS (.DTB, .DTG, ect.) into that folder
- start up your M3 and go to the "Setup" button
- go down to "Background" and scroll right until you find the name of the skin you want to use
- hit A and the skin will be applied

Good luck. And of coarse if you've got E20 or below firmware, use the E20 skins. If you have upgraded recently to the E21 skin that uses 8 buttons, use the E21 skins.

How're you managing to make skins for the latest firmware (with the extra 2 icons)? There are currently no utilities I'm aware of to make them, or I'd have churned out a few myself.
