Wheww
Got this skin in the competition about 2.5 hours before deadline


mbmax/someone Please Check my skin if it works properly and if the animation is correct

Im pretty sure the skin needs to be complete with a splash to count and did you try gif ninja

 

[bowbowhead]

I think he meant he doesn't have an animation preview. You don't need gif files to create the splash animation. And skins without an animation can still be entered. It'll just be counted against them.

It's not required, just recommended.

This is what I was thinking.

Just over an hour to go now.

New entries that have not been tested- this one is really on me (I knew Mbmax was going to be on holiday) so if indeed something is found during judging testing I am inclined to give a certain grace period to fix it (or if it is a typo in the ini file or something I will sort it and send it upstream).

Beneton movie gif is my chosen GIF maker freeware or otherwise: http://www.benetonsoftware.com/Beneton_Movie_GIF.php

A gif I made a few weeks back for the 5 years thread: http://pix.gbatemp.net/32303/histords.gif

Good luck all.

 

[FAST6191]

@kiafazool beneton can do that.

@TomF1 you are just inside the limit.

Everybody who past now added to Mbmax's list, I have yet to get to test them so those who have not had a confirmed entry stick by your PM box for a day or two and check back here.

@others http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone...nd/london/time/ is the time I am working too.

COMPETITION ENDED

 

[FAST6191]

Competition is now over. Only alkahest who was having issues with the EZSkinForger can enter (he PMed me regarding the issues).

Regarding winners- judging now begins. We have over 60 entries to judge and while we aim to get it done as quickly as possible there is no set date for announcing it (timezones, this being the middle of holidays for the judges, time involved in judging and all that).

We will announce the winners here (probably as a new thread but this will get a reply in case you have an email on reply to this thread setup- I will leave this open for a day or so and then lock it so the next reply will be us informing everyone of the winners thread being posted), on the US forums and the EZTeam will hopefully do something on the Chinese forums and main site as and when it is completed.
You will be also be informed by PM on GBAtemp at which time you will need to provide an address (directly to the EZTeam- we will tell you how as and when).

We have a basic list of entrants in Mbmax's post but over the next couple of days I will try to compile a list with previews and current downloads.

1. Announced

comment on how it looks

here is my animation:

I hope this remains intact with the judges: "skins are judged based on their uniqueness and creativity, not photoshopping skills"

I mean, I believe in skins still looking good, but originality should still be looked at while judging.

I agree 100%

Creativity is so lacking nowadays because people feel accustomed to one style of thinking.
It should be encouraged to be more creative rather than discouraged which it so often is.

It looks good, though it's something like alien thingies, nothing like retro.

I kid my friend

My competition-submission:
I'm new here and didn't know where to post the skin URL, so I'll post it here:
http://filetrip.net/g25124775-BlueCube.html
Hope you like it, hope I win

Thanks TLOZ for your entry.

But your skin is incomplete. The 2 splash screen are not present.

Please check my tutorial to see how to build them : http://ezflash.sosuke.com/viewtopic.php?p=69650#p69650

In your case, files bluecube_up.bin and bluecube_bottom.bin are missing.

The file EZSkin.ini is not required.

Edit : nice splash.ani

I think i need to gives some tips on my first post along with FAQ.
The plash.ani is displayed on top screen, when kernel start.

This said, perhaps you will have to switch top and bottom background in ez skin forger ?

just a quick question for u max
what is the point of making a .ess file? what does it do?
also, what are .ini files for?
thanks again

I kid my friend

i was gonna make something retro but with the given time frame of you know what happened
that was what i could make but the projection is highlighting RETRO so i guess that counts

still 11 hours of work made a decent intro
