Can you guys tell mw what I can fix in it?

Fix the whit static around the boarder of the buttons.
Want me to fix it?
I have PS CS4.

Thank you for pointing it out.

I thought that saving the picture in *.png would solve the problem, but the skin maker automatically converts the cheat code buttons into *.bmp files

Changed the cheat buttons for "regular" ones, changed the color of the fonts as well as the highlight and added transparency to the main buttons

This is how it looks now:

Now here is the latest version with the corrected parts.

Damn, everybody, something's halting our project.

While most skins here are cool, it doesn't look like that on the DS, try to save the images in 16bit .bmp to see the actual result

My skin (which looks soooo good in jpg) looks horrible in bmp, might have to restart the whole process again

Dang I need someone to test mine out!
Could someone test mine out on there DS?
PM me if you can!

That really isn't necessary. You really just need to save it as a .bmp file to see the real result, like he said.
Mine is already in .bmp (I didn't notice you could use other formats in the editor) so mine is how it will look on the DS apparently.

Damn, I have to reduce the glow in my elegant lines...

now it's not glowing anymore.....

Stupid 16 bit bmp format, if only it ca go for 24 bit, maybe making skins is not so bad....

Also, can someone tell me how to fix those cheat icons? I can't seem to get a proper transparency

Here's my entry

EDGE NES SKIN! =) Hope you like it

download: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=e1b82cd...2db6fb9a8902bda

OMG That rocks I used a photo I took myself for the background of mine and then made the buttons from scratch, was yours from scratch or a photo that then took hours of tweaking (I know a straight photo of a nes pad wouldnt look as good as your final work!)

 

[Kaneda-Jones]

thanx to whom ever it was who pointed out that on the cheat menu there were both the radio buttons and the check boxes. that info came in handy.

 

[Pikachu025]

someone mind testing mine?: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?s=&showto...t&p=1520391

I just tested it on my Cyclo - I love it. A few things though:
- The text at the very top of the screen is unreadable due to being white, consider making it a dark color.
- The cursor in the Settings menu seems to have the same color as the background or something - in any case, I can't see it.
- The cursor in the Games menu is too transparent, you can see it, but only barely.
Otherwise, though, awesome work! Could you perhaps supply me with a version that doesn't have the "Limited Edition EDGE GOLD" text at the top? That would be great.

This Competition is getting too Tough I hope i still have a chance to get in the top 1 million or something

 

[Kaneda-Jones]

here is MY ENTRY INTO THE EDGE CONTEST.. ahem don't mean to shout.

picture hosted at flickr with comments and everything at:

(flickr hates people not mentioning them when you leech them)

and the zip file is at:

also, the app that makes the skins seems fine with the 24 bit bmps so is it for sure the cards hate 24 bit bmps? it is quite the overlooked bug if their own app makes stuff not running on the card. if so then I dunno what to do about it.

I made a thread for whoever wants feedback / opinions on their skins to keep this thread less cluttered and therefor making it an easier job for the staff.
You can find the thread here:
