Hacking R4 DS skins

[Turmoil]

You keep asking for feedback, and when someone is honest with you you get angry. You have made lots of skins so you obviously have some time to do it, maybe instead of trying to make ten of them with no icons you could make 5 with icons instead.

Anyways the real reason I m posting is I just wanted to say thanks to lots of people in here doing a great job and keep it up =D

 

[Spikey]

Once again, they're just pictures. They aren't bad, but it's sad seeing no effort being put in them. You could take another hour and try and add icons and make it look a little nicer...

Anyway, my Katamari theme.

p.s. If the details are specific I'll gladly take requests.

Here's a request! A Phoenix Wright skin in the style of the menus from Phoenix Wright! I've always wanted my menu on my R4 to look like the menus from Phoenix Wright!

Thanks in advance if you decide to fill this request. If not, cheers anyways!

well sorry i don't have that much time too make themes.. I'm not someone who has all day too just sit around on the computer, play video games and such.. and, when i do have time, sure, i'll start making some better themes but until then , LIVE WITH IT, geez, you don't got to hate..Â

 maybe a few suggestion but you don't gotta go "they're just pictures" -__- if you don't like them just ignore them then.. goshÂ

It's called constructive criticism. It helps you build on to what you already know to improve on whatever it is you're doing. If you can't accept criticism you shouldn't be making skins in the first place. It's the cold truth, you have to live with it.

Edit: Spikey, I think someone beat you to the idea.

BAM!

When you press the first icon (the game icon) where does it take you? do you need to create a games folder?

thanks!

That one is TERRIBLE! Okay, maybe not TERRIBLE, but one can do better than that!

Hey, just made two themes and I'd like some feedback.

Dead Leaves (I decided to use three comic panels overlapping like crazy as the icons for this. I can tell what's what just fine but I'd like to know if it's too crazy for people who aren't as familiar with it as I am)

Silent Hill inspired (I was going for consistency with this, so using the same pictures edited differently twice isn't laziness. Still, if enough people don't like how it's done I can take it into consideration for future skins)

Hope you all like 'em.

Here's how I always pictured one looking...

EDIT: Keep in mind those pictures are of me taking pics of my DS so the quality of the images is no good, but it's from those menus and whatnot that would look good I think.

Have a look around on ndsthemes. There's a few themes that look similar to what you are wanting.

 

[bigballer23]

can someone please tell me why this skin won't work....the logo & bckgrd_1 doesnt work on my R4...
here is the link

sometimes the bitmaps arent saved properly so you have to open them in paint and then make sure there saved in 24-bit bitmap(correct me if its a different type)

 

[Zombie_Mario]

From NDSthemes:

Why doesn't the theme work?

During the upload and download process, files may have been slightly altered. Use your graphics program, such as MS Paint, and save the file as 8-bit/24-bit format.

Ok first ever skin, was big time disappointed to not be able to find one of my favorite games skins, and just couldn't stand it anymore so I had to give it a go myself.

Still working on it I think (kinda tired now though) let me know what ya think, no need to go easy on me =]

Turmoil, cool skin. Could you make a similar skin for the NES Metroid?
