Freakin awesome, but if ya ask me the name doesnt go with it so much, if the brushed steel part was a LITTLE more darker. Then the title would be perfect. other then that. Its great!
@Digimike:
TRAVELIAN!!! Wow!,Hello Guys First of all I want to present you Digimike.
Digimike was not 'one of the' but THE BEST SKINNER in the Sonique Forums.If you don't believe me,go to skinbase.org and make a search for the name 'Travelian' and see by yourself.You will notice the high quality of his skins.This very skin is inspired by one of his:Aerospike.
I hope that you came here to stay Travelian.Skinning Xion is Like skinning Sonique but without Mantis:all you need is only a psd file and that's it.Please tell me that you are here to stay.It's a very nice comunity here .
@Halonut1:
You'r right about the name it doesn't go well with the skin.The first name that came into my mind was 'Black LCD'.BTW I am open to suggestions
@ALAS
I was also thinking the same thing.I initially made the first version of this skin with only one color in the screen(Blue).But then I added the 'tri-color' vu meter and ended with many colors.I will go for your suggestion and make some changes
@Digimike - the way I like to think of it is if you make your psd workable in Xion, it is easily output for other media apps, with the use of psdtowal you can extract the layers out with automation, I use that for layers and the initial xml declarations for the elements, bear in mind that there is/was an issue with some of the colour stuff in psdtowal tho
therefore Xion is not only a really good way to get skins into a workable state for use but also a rapid development tool too

I've got one skin that will be out for this player in a bit, i've also got something i'm working on for winamp 5.
Oddly I must be a masochist since I find xml and programing for players fun. I may do a few more skins for Xion since its quite painless though.
Glad to hear(hmm! read) that.!
I always liked your work Digimike and can't wait to see your first skin for Xion.Digideck was always my default skin(now I tell you! ).Believe me,once you do your first skin for Xion you get addicted to it.I also hope that the others will come here.
@SLoB:
I have a little problem with this skin SLoB and I need your help.There is in the big screen a minimize button(the green layer with a minus in it) wich has the 3 states(_over,_normal and _down).When I first load the skin with the big screen shown, and I put the mouse over the minimize button(without clicking),it disapear and to see it again you must hide and show the screen.Even after that there is a problem with the _over state and it don't show sometimes.
This is the first time that I hide a button.I don't know if this is a bug but I didn't forget the svst function.
Thanks DigiMike I checked out some of yours too, very nice too
ForceField, I reckon the yellow parts in the lcd would look more in keeping with being a blue equivalent sort of colour
I have a utility I did a few years back for creating colour themes for wa skins called RTG which can help show some of the colour schemes such as triadic, analogous, split, paired complements which might be of some use to you guys, I'm a fan of trying to keep colour themes that have some sort of science behind them
