Woo, Everything in this skin I made from scratch, EXCEPT for the sitting green dude in the top screen.

I hope you people like it. I think it goes perfectly with a white or pink DS Lite. I think it would be great if they made a Katamari game for the NDS, It would work perfectly with the touch screen. Download Here

Or, you could just make your own! *gasp* That works too.


Not everyones good at making their own things tho
True. I'm just saying, that's an option as well along with searching google images and deviantart. I mean hell, if I find someone else's art that I could use as icon and it looks good, I'm gonna use it (with proper credit and all)

lol, yeah (wasnt snapping btw)

i suck at creating things, damn, i got Photoshop and still use paint most of the time
lol
cant figure out how to use this thing for shit
 
I tried working on Zelda MM & MC based skins however i can not make proper icons at least for the MM version so i will upload all the files in proper size with random name.

Zelda: Majora's Mask
Menu Top screen:
logoMM.png

Menu Bottom screen:
rsz_mask1.jpg


backMM1.png


backMM2.png


Zelda: Minish Cap
Menu Top screen:
rsz_theminishcap-noa-linkandminish1.png

Menu Bottom screen:
iconsMC.png


I am wondering if someone can finish/polish these skins off by adding icons on the second pic (rsz_mask1.jpg) and rename the skin files properly as required.
 
Here is my skin:

The pulsating effect the R4 does over the logos makes them look even better.
I use the windows vista style for the menu backgrounds and the transition between the dark logo screen onto the blue menus is quite cool.
If anyone is interested i will upload the files.
 
someone requested my icons
they are a mix of things i grabbed from the apple site and the white icons i got off of deviantart.

the .psd is attached.

i opened the psd file with fireworks, or if it matters, so i dont know if this is true for you.. but the hammer/wrench icon is missing from the slot 2 circle.. everything else is fine..

Very nice skin egj. Simple, non-cluttered, minimalistic. Just how I like em

He said he's not making the download until he can test em to make sure they show properly. But if you want, he's already posted all 4 images needed in his post. Save em from there.

looks good! tested it on my R4.. the only thing i see is that the left icon needs to be a bit more left, and the right icon needs to be a bit more right in order to fit centered in the selection square..

there is a bit of banding since you are using gradients, but me like!

Cool, thanks for the comments everyone.

Alright, I hope to get my R4 soon so I can fix this -- going to move the icons and see if dithering the images to 256 colors will help with the banding. Thanks for the headsup.
