"Official" Beautiful Widgets Skinning Thread
- Thread starter 928Droid
- Start date
Agreed looks really cool!
Yeah, you should render it flat and/or reduce quality, a 12meg clock skin just might slow things down a little on a phone
Also makes sure the size are the same as the samples.
BTW, it looks VERY nice, can't wait to see it on the phone.
BTW I just sent you a pm with the updated files, hope it looks better now. Also the final update will let us use our own skins right? We're not restrained with skins available natively to the BW?
Got PM, sent reply.
Yes we will be able to use our own skins, this is a big part of the reason for this thread, for us to share them with each other.
When you get one that is finished and ready for sharing. please go back thru your previous posts and update and/or delete the previous uploads or posts so we don't confuse people with different "unfinished" skins.
The Goal is basically to make this thread the "repository" for BW skins/tips/tricks. According to Mods there will be a separate "disussion" thread started for the new BW Skiinable widget/app. We want to try to keep this one "clean" for future users to come and find BW skins and related info without having to sort thru page after page of "unrelated stuff".
Hope that makes sense,

Yeah, The old one I used manual gradients to create the image. The new ones use layer styles so that all background images would be more consistant with one another. I'll tinkering with it again to make it look more like the originalturns out i was saving .psd files with .png extensions but not actually flattened .png format. Kinda weird it would let me do that. Anyways I have uploaded the correct skin. file size is now 963kb
Corrupt or empty Zip file, double check it or recreate it.
