^ No probs - & if there's any others you'd like from there - Let me know & I'll do the same thing

EDIT: Actually - I think I'll do it anyway
(Those without pictures means there weren't any in the forum to 'borrow')

i think this is the best rendition of my basic AKAIO theme so far, i did a lot of small tweaks and added some eyecandy dropshadow for it to have a look of professionalishness.

..and it goes real good on the DS screens, RayRay

Sweet, thank you very much. I have to say, this is my favourite theme.

I always use different themes, but this is the one I always come back too.

Smoothe edges man, really like it.

I apparently didn't make the calendars deep enough for this month, I am thinking of making another version of BRS theme that looks proper in months that have 6 weeks. Time to fire up the desktop!

Hate to tell you, but you're using the wrong title pictures for both of the skins. The japanese in the black skin says Pocket Monsters White, and the white skin says Pocket Monsters Black. It probably doesn't matter that much, but I just wanted to point it out. I don't know how hard making a skin is, but all you have to do is switch the japanese titles.

Pretty epic for first skin though O.o
 
BlueDS neatest skin imo

Can anyone fix this skin or give me some tips/instructions on how to do it myself?

The skin looks amazing, but it just turns into discolorated gibberish on my DS screen when I load it up... How do I go about fixing a theme like this?
I've had a quick look using AKEdit - it seems some of the graphics are NOT 16-bit format, & this is a reason why graphics look like 'discolored garbage'

Give us a little while (I'm 'working' at the moment) & I'll see what I can do

EDIT: I noticed my fix causes the pictures to have pixelation, use CannonFoddr's.

I fixed it and I also added in the proper calender files.

Exaltys: How did you convert yours by the way ???? - did you use AKEdit by any chance.....
If so then that explains the pixelation of it... It's known fact (just not very well known) that AKEdit will 'convert' ALL graphics in a skin even if it's only just one that is 'wrong'
(it's mentioned in this WIKI)

FYI - The way I've done it (although it IS long winded) is to use 'GIMP'
I load in the graphic (usinfg 'Drag-&-Drop') then

'File' > 'Save As' > [Save] > [Replace] (the existing file) > 'Advanced Options' > Select 16-bit 'X1 R5 G5 B5' option > [Save]
