Do You Have a Summer Skinning Project?

Nothing like firing up SkinStudio on a lazy summer afternoon...

July 9, 2008 3:42 PM from

Summer has been in full-swing for a few weeks now, but the number of skins haven't slowed down at all it seems. Obviously you folks aren't letting something like good weather get in the way of building and uploading some killer skins!

So if you're still skinning this summer, what's your summer project? Is it a light and sunny skin, or prep work for the 2008 GUI Champs starting in just a few months (I just got off the phone with our first major sponsor, should have the first prize details in a few weeks!)? Whatever you're working on, share a preview with us here!

maybe it's just me taking a while to get used to sks6 but I liked how I could click on an image in the preview to bring up the editing pane - is sks5 still available for download, I uninstalled sks5 before installing sks6 and don't have a bkup copy .... Anyone? Bueller.... Bueller.... Bueller....

You should be able to get it through SDC.

As far as I know that wont ever be implemented in SKS6, may as well get used to using the treeview...

Sure would help if it was alphabetized.

Me too, that's how I learned what was what in the treeview, otherwise I had no clue.

/me still uses sks5

I'll me skinning my lawn every 5 of 6 days. Does that count?

How about two days after I get sun-burned at the pool? I guarantee you'll see skinning then too.

I'm working with a friend to create the most awesome windowblinds skin ever made. It should be done by this time in 2010, with luck. (We are both really slow, lazy workers). I'm also helping create a skinable media library of sorts. Should be interesting when I finally get it done.
