Btw, will you be able to change your skin if your not happy with it before the final date? i.e. November 15th.

You do the screenshot with the DS Skin Editor.

My entry with a skin based on CCTV.
The 2 digital photos used for making it are taken by me.

Anyone know of a good file-uploader? Or can I just upload it from the GBAtemp servers?

I hope you guys like it!

The menu icons aren't correct at the screenshot, it shows the second image of the first button only. But i guess that's old news already.

(I can't get the image in here, it still shows up as a link. Can someone tell me how to fix this so it should appear as an image here?)

Hey, long time GBATemp reader, first time poster. I have a simplistic skin to upload. Don't take it as a lazy effort, it took a while to angle the images around.

~There is beauty in simplicity~
PS: The icons are, in fact, Chinese. The translation is accurate, I swear on it

Still don't know if we're allowed to update the skins after submitting them so I updated it anyway since it looked so Plain. Anyway here:

People should really wait a week or so. Seeing multiple versions in the same day is likely going to create a headache for no good reason.

Yes, this is my entry. No more versions are coming.

In spite of having said previously that I'd make full use of the time given, I realized how absurd that was. It didn't take me NEARLY as long as I'd expected to get the exact results I was looking for. Anyway, here it is. Hope y'all like it.

Update: Version 1.1 fixes the scrollbar transparency. Not changing the preview, because it showed it correctly in the first place. I replaced the preview with one made by the CycloDS skin tester.
Download it here.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
