source .psd for my gba skin, free to use for everyone, icons and all

doesnt include every pic you need for the skin but most of them anyway

the hidden black layers represent areas you crop for each individual button

i am all finished with my a-level exams!!!! that means i have some time on my hands to do you guys skins (if im not out or on mw2/oblivion that is!) so request away, btw i made the zelda and absract blue themes

btw i made the zelda and absract blue themes

I think anyone who bothers looking on the first post will see that

Anyway - the only request i can think of is....

We're a little 'short' on 'plugins'/'NDS-GBA' skins, so I guess if some were made that matched the other skins wouldn't go amiss

(Better check the Multi-skin packs first - for e.g 'Don't Panic' doesn't need a plugin or nds-gba, while Abstract Blue,Matrix & Julia needs an equivalent nds-gba)

I haven't been around this thread/gbatemp much for awhile, been busy job hunting e.t.c. but I do have a skin in the works, been spending a fair bit of time on this, it's going to take awhile to complete and "should" be a FULL skin set.

Dig it. This is my much to be praised GreenNeon theme set. ive worked my arse off the past few days to get these fuggers looking pimpity pimpin.
its based on my akaio skin of the same name. Enyoy

*snip*

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this seems like the first full skin for the DSTwo (real time menu and all).

I've made a new skin, since I'm currently enjoying watching Ergo Proxy I figured I'd make a skin for it.

It's not the best skin ever, but I quite like it.

It contains the plugins, DS_GAME and a Loading Screen.

Does anyone know if Kentoss is still working on his awesome looking skin?

 

[Alfadir]

He can't do what he shown on his preview made on toshop.

DSTwo skins don't have calendar and date and name of the DS (internal name) isn't shown on DSTwo skin.

His preview is a mix between DSTwo skin and AK skin.

He can easily replace the calendar with a simple logo or something near and keep the "aspect".

Well yah, the calender could easily be deleted. However, DSTwo skins do show internal rom names at the top.

DSTwo shows internal ROM name not internal DS name !

Ok, I see what you mean there.

Well we could always ask the Supercard team to add support for that. It's probably only like 2 lines of code anyways.

 

[Alfadir]

No need of that, there is enough things that can be shown with dstwo, rom name, rom info, file name, folder name, time, stop it's enough

DS screens are only 256x192 px wide.

Well the theme Kentoss "made" doesn't looked cramped in the least bit. Plus there's a ton of un-used space on the default DSTwo theme's top screens.

does anyone know where i can get a dstwo okami skin? i love there fallout 3 skin they did over at the supercard forums, very neat.

 

[CannonFoddr]

@ jalaneme: I assume you mean 'Okami' pictures like

Spoiler: Large image....

If so - I can't see why one of us can't make one for you

just a few questions though...
> Is there any pictures you prefer for top/bottom - perhaps you can give a link to them & we'll see what we can do.
> Would you like a single picture covering both screens or a different one for each
> Would you prefer a skin just for the eos or perhaps a 'full set' (eos/plugin/nds-gba/loading etc) - if so that may take a little longer to do
> What info do you want to see on the top screen (clock/Filename/internal name etc etc)

Spoiler: EDIT: I've had a little play to see what the graphic looks like split over 2-screen

It's only a mock-up but what do you think ??

working on a new skin

circuit nebula

its a combination of my two skins, the idea was whispered to my crazy mind and I listened

WIP SHOT:

suggestions welcome

 

[CannonFoddr]

OK I've cobbled together a eos skin based on 'Okami'
It's a rushed job - but didn't really come out to bad IMHO, but I may tweak it later

Spoiler

Download link

FYI: for those who don't have Wifi or can't get the DS2Tools plugin to work (& I'm one of them)
- I've included on the first post links to (most of) the [eos] skins avaliable through that program.(I've not included the 'plugin' or 'nds-gba' skins as we've already got those

)
One of the skins I've not included is 'Touka_Kureha' - It locks up when you try to open the menu

 

[DeltaBurnt]

You could put a cloud as a background for the top screen info (not as a background for the whole top screen, though).

Hmm not a bad idea that... may just do it later
