Wow, that looks great, I never even thought of skinning polyworks  :)

The simple shine/reflections on all the buttons and bars make everything look very nice.

This'd completely overwright all of the current skin though, yes?

Very nice VirtualTT :)

I want to let everyone who is making a skin know that there are a few skin-related changes in the next version of PolyWorks (which will probably be out in a few days) including 3 new tools. It will also be possible to choose your skin from the Preferences window, rather than manually editing the ini.

Silverskin for PW 1.4

To make it look better download the Consolas Font by Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/thankyou.aspx?familyId=22E69AE4-7E40-4807-8A86-B3D36FAB68D3&displayLang=en&oRef=) (unless you have it already).

How can i change the colours in the .ini -file? (I mean the backgroundcolour)

How can i change the colours in the .ini -file? (I mean the backgroundcolour)
Colour settings are located in colours.ini in skin folder (e.g. ...\Soldat\Soldat PolyWorks\gfx\colours.ini). You can open it in any text editor or use this (http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/). Example:
Code: [Select]
[GUIColours]
Background=68А230
LabelBack=614B3D
LabelText=FFFFFF
TextBoxBack=FFFFFF
TextBoxText=000000
Frame=0B3C0D
Font1=Lucida Console
Font2=Bank Gothic Light BT
So it contains HEX colours values for deferent elements in Blue Green Red format. Copy it to your skin folder and replace default colours with desired values and save. You can use win calculator to convert decimal numbers (0..255) into HEX format.

I like the skins here :) Question to me is, whether Anna could possibly change Polyworks to a level where I could change the bg to a picture. Would be nice then :)
Title: Re: PolyWorks skins!
Post by: -Zombie- on March 18, 2009, 05:19:14 pm
I'd suggest removing the texture behind the arrows on the colour picker and on the boxes/circles that you tick. I hope you understand what i mean.

It's an alright skin though, nice job.

So is it possible to use textures for skins?

Well, yeah sort of. You got to do it yourself though, you cant just choose a texure and put it as a skin. You have make the skin.

The tool icons are nice man. Also, you missed a capital letter on the word Edition at the top.

Don't know which one is better, Dark Glass or this one? xD

Looks amazingly awesome. By far the best yet. Only thing is that I think the buttons (the Ok, Cancel, Apply ones) should be in a smaller font.
Title: Re: PolyWorks skins!
Post by: Dragstie on April 08, 2009, 02:54:52 am
of some reason i like dark glass more:(

"Probally because i preffer black"

but awesome work as usually:)   "Thumb up"
