"Official" Beautiful Widgets Skinning Thread

[928Droid]

Hey 928Droid, Here is another skin for you to try out.

Kinda looks like a digital alarm clock.

Thanks!

Looks cool, nice clean look.

BTW, check/correct your zip file, background.png somehow got named "background copy.png"

You should also be able to use this image and create your "Clean Clock.jpg" preview file to complete the skin properly.\

Oh, also the smaller home wide background doesn't seem to have the same peelback look on the lower right as all the others.

EDIT: Please update your zip file link above when you make those changes/fixes, thanks!

can you post my latest updates Dave? I want to make sure they look just right!

Here you go, looks good!

Note on Blackflipper (with no Background) there seems to be a leftover line at the bottom, not sure if that is intentional or not.

If I can make one suggestion, I really like the curved real look, but the flip clock would look more realistic if either the upper or lower was convex instead of both being concave. With both being concave the "flippers" could never nestle into each other as they flip if it was a real flipclock. Hope that makes sense, it's the engineering side of me coming out. BUT I'm not a clock expert so what do I know

Here is another style. I am curious to see how it works out. its could look really cool or it could fail if things aren't lined up properly.

Dave,

Looks great, thanks so much for posting them up. I will make some different versions down the road, the line is actually meant to be there...doesnt look to good with the wall you have, but i think it might be pretty nice with some other more solid wallpapers.

thanks again, cant wait to get my hands on this version!

Latest update from Beautiful Widgets:

"I was too sick and there is too much work left to do the release. Since I am travelling tomorrow, that will probably on monday! Sorry! "

Pushing back the update is no big deal, especially when the developer is courteous enough to let everyone know!

BW FTW!

I see my skin "Hangover" got posted way back on page 1. Awesome.
Here are the other skins I've done so far:


This one is "scanlines green". It's got a greenish tinge to the number areas, so there's a grey version too. Also, I'm not sure if I'll be able to use this font, because I'll have to buy a commercial license to it for $40. I really like how it works though.

And this one is "24". I had to use some trickery to make the 0 show up all the time, and it may not work right on phones besides the Droid (the phone I can test on). So I made a version without the 0, called "24 sans 0" as well. I guess that version is essentially a messier "Clean clock".

I love everybody's skins. I can't wait until the update comes out and skinning is that much easier to do.

Cool, Welcome!!

If you wouldn't please post zip files of yours skins. the main reason for this thread is for all of us to share each other's BW skins.

I especially would like to have that second one myself. I LIKE IT!!!

BTW, now that I know your username I will add credit to the earlier screen cap.

 

[928Droid]

Whoops. Can't wait until the update?
I can't attach all the zip files to my previous post, so I'll have to attach them here. Hope that's alright.

WOW, thanks for the contribution, gonna load "24" up right now to check it out in person!!

Thanks again!!
