EZ5i skinning competition

[willy-wilson]

I also have a few more questions, in the template folder where the progress bar images are, what other images can be edited in there (possibly the plus and minus and check mark icons for the cheats menu or the folder icons?

I assume you can edit all of them

but I think only the calendar parts are not shown on the cart because of some kernel issues. (needs stable release? maybe I'm wrong

)

btw, nice skin!

Alright well i got everything compiled, but im not sure if it works at all, could someone please let me know if it works?

Heres the file, its called darkgold http://filetrip.net/f12257-darkgold-1-0.html

Wow, I really like it. I reminds me a lot of N or N+.

So everything is working? well im going to try and edit the cheat menu icons, loading bar, folder icons and whatnot today. When im done if someone could confirm there working that would be great.

 

[EZ-Megaman]

I updated my skin to 1.3

 

[willy-wilson]

So, how do i actually implement these when Im done with the rest?

 

[Blake1710]

i think that you just recompile it with the skin forger.

 

[willy-wilson]

Well, i have them all finished, do i need to replace the ones in the template folder for it to work when i compile or how do i go about this?

EDIT: got version 1.1 up, someone wanna let me know if the icons are working?

@ThatDudeWithTheFood
You have a problem with a "Game Name" line - on the actual EZVi it actually takes 2-3 lines.

can you please explain copyright? (not general talking about copyright in this thread)
what kind of icons and things come under copyright?

Pretty much anything that isn't given out (not clearly stated that it is free for public use, by the original creator of course) is something you should stay away from. I've already looked through some of the entries and can tell one or more break some kind of copyright law. The idea of this contest is to be creative anyways, so most likely if you're taking images off of Google, then that will probably count against you. I saw someone use an image they drew in Paint early on in this topic, now if I was a judge, I would probably vote for something like that as opposed to something composed of clearly "Google taken" images.

Edit: After looking through the entries, there are actually quite a few that don't exactly follow the copyright rule. Oh, and I'm not sure if this has been mentioned already, but is there an age limit to this competition? Most competitions that reward a physical mailing prize require participants to be 18+, not sure if this is some kind of law as well.

Sure, but revise the version number on filetrip so we know you have modified it

The icons work, but the up/down arrows have transparency issues. The arrows have mostly transparent boxes around them. These are the arrows on the side of the game image. Other than that, it's a pretty nice skin, a little plain though.

 

[willy-wilson]

what kind of transparency issues? a screen or something would help a lot :/ i have no means of testing it myself.

You can sorta see the transparency issues if you look hard enough.

 

[willy-wilson]

oops, i know what that is, drop shadow effect i accidently left on when i was testing different stuff, ill fix that later tonight. (your talking about the arrow right?)

Well then the rules weren't clearly stated by fast6191

I said to delete my old entry you never read

That still means changing your post. like the above quote stats that you are only allowed to modify your skin not COMPLETELY change it like you did

Kiafazool, I'm fairly certain that if ANYTHING goes against the rules of the contest, it will be dealt with. Thus, you don't really have to reinterpret any hidden rules for the competitors. Worst case, Mbmax is more than willing to clarify any discrepancies that may arise and check with FAST6191 if need be. As a note, Mbmax IS checking each skin one at a time for anything that might be wrong so you don't really have to worry about it.
