How hard is it to create a skin?
Looky looky what just showed up in my gmail from BW!!
Screen Capture of the "Skin Selector Screen" for Beautiful Widgets... VERY COOL!!
Soo cool but can he fix my name? lol The "u" somehow became upside down!! lol
I saw that first thing and thought I had mispelled it in the eclair.txt file I made for you but when I checked it was correct. FWIW, mine was supposed to read "928Droid" from my txt file so I guess he manually entered the info in the current beta.
When the app is done it should read the info directly/automatically from that file so it should "self correct", If not I will ask him to fix it.
I'm looking for "naked" with black lettering and one with white. Hopfully the same with the older HTC flip clock versions as well.
Release it!!!! :icon_ banana:
Keep in mind that for now (as far as I know) you can only change the "clock digits" so the other text (city,temp,forecast etc.) will still be white.
I just did a naked Droid with black clock digits, looked pretty cool on a colored wallpaper.
Knowing Tama I am sure he will give ys the option to change all text colors at some point in time.
Hi Martin,
If you are familiar with PhotoShop and/or other image editors it is really easy.
Basically you use the supplied Photoshop templates in the SkinDevKit, open them up in PS, change them to look however you like them (file dimensions must not be changed) and then save them as transparent PNG files with the proper file names as shown in the Example directory of the Skin kit. You can also just open up the actual PNG files from the "example" directory, edit and save them to a new directory (to preserve the originals). You then copy those to a directory you make under the Specific BW Skins Directory on the SD card. If you put them in the correct spot and follow the "format" outlined in the readme.txt file of the Skin Kit they should show up in the Skin Selector of the widget.
