EZ5i skinning competition

[env]

i want to join but is hard to make a skin without the actual flash cart.. good luck to you env..

Thanks, and goodluck to ALL!

You're not joining bro? tsk.

 

[c_house]

Just going to buy one anyway. My Acekard is starting to go wonky.

@env : there will be a calendar screen saver. Not yet implemented in the current kernel.
So it will not count at all in the contest. But if you wish to see your calendar appeared one day like magie, just modify the template.

 

[env]

@Mbmax: I see, looking at some parts of it I notice that some calendar parts are still lacking (like colortbl.ini for colors etc.)

Another question: (My keen eye just got activated XD)
At the "setting.ini" If I change CustomSelectTextBackground=1 to CustomSelectTextBackground=0 Will the FL_Single_ItemBG_Select.png take place so I can edit it also to replace the block solid color of SelectText Background?

seems confusing.
(Is it ok if I ask questions like this on the thread?

)

The website is extremely slow :/
(^ Ez flash site)
I can't start without having the right tools xD
Ah well, I hope it'll be back in a few moments.
I'll start with drawing stuff in photoshop I guess...
Good luck all

Edit: Oh btw, in what resolution are the skins?

My skin is finished.

Ok. I was pretty sure this rule (about copyright) was troublesome.

We (judges and host webiste) have to talk about that and decide what to do.

pokeboy100 skin is also in this case.

Will gives you news soon guys.

Some good news for us

?

Still waiting for an answer.

As we have no answer, and don't want to let you waste your time waiting for that, we decided to let that kind of skin enter the contest.
Welcome aboard guys.

Edit: Oh btw, in what resolution are the skins?

Upper Screen: 256x192p
Lower Screen: 256x192p
Buttons: As big as you want them to be

(recommended: 16x16p or 32x32p)

Just one question: Is there any way to add music to the skin? (fe. bootup-sound or sth. like that)?

That's a good question. It's not a secret to anybody, but the kernel is based on moonshell 2.0b5 code.
I never tried to add sound, but i will, to test.

Edit : no luck on this. seems that moonlight added this in later release.

Yes

this is a good answer

Thank you! I'll optimize my skin now

 

[popoffka]

It's not a secret to anybody, but the kernel is based on moonshell 2.0b5 code.

Is it? I thought only Kernel v.1 was based on it, but 2 and 3 were written from scratch.
The fact that Kernel v.2 & 3 is unable to play music and videos (IIRC) proves me right.

 

[TotalInfinity]

Loving that skin Viz, that's a sure winner there.

Anyway, I just saw that video on the second post. So EZ5i can change skins in the options menu? That's pretty impressive. When this is over I'm gonna load up the top 20 skins (if I win of course XD) in mine and cycle through them.

And my skin should be posted later today. Just gotta finish up some of the pop up menus, got the icons and backgrounds done.

 

[evandixon]

By the way, my username is UniqueGeek, not UniqueGeeks, as mentioned in the second post of this thread. Confusing, perhaps, because my website is UniqueGeeks.net.

 

[Mbmax]

is it okay if i use one of the shirt compo entries for my theme? thanks in advance

or if i use gbatemp's banner?

I have nothing against that.
But ask the maker of the artwork if you can use it for your skin.

All you need is on first 2 post in this thread. Read them carefully and you will see that you don't need the flashcart to make a skin and enter this contest.

I finally managed to finish my animation of the top screen. (Which took me about 5 hours, YES FIVE HOURS! o.o)
But it looks epic now

But eehhh..
When I exported it to .gif
It lost LOTS of quality

Flash CS5, am I doing it wrong? (

)
I really don't want to start over :/
(FIVE HOURS!)
But even if I have to start over, what do I need to change?
I used photoshop CS5 for the creation of the basic image, and animated in flash.
Please help me, I can really use one of those carts

Edit: For example, the quality viz got with his theme is great

But mine has random non-fitting pixels in it :/
