Ok - That's very nice - but - Where do you download it from?

I did not see it in the download section and there are no links in this thread (that I can see)

I would be interested to download it.

Thanks!

Thanks for all of the hard work. Loaded the skin and got it up and running faster than any skin before. I seem to be missing a font. Certain controls text comes up as letters like k and e. Also my test machine is a laptop with 1920x1200 res. The left side of the menu choices goes outside the background frame. Is there a quick way to fix this or do I need to move each item one at a time. Here is an example:

Thanks for the comment, i wasn't sure if anybody was giving it a go!

All the fonts you need are located in the Resource folder of the skin, well they should be if Wes re-uploaded the skin... the one missing is HTPC font from the looks of the picture, most of Badda's skins use it as a font...

I built it on 800x600 so not sure about scaling it to 1920x1200, you may need to move the skin over manually unless anybody knows different?

I'm just finishing off a new skin but that's secret so...oh...dammit

Good luck
Andy

Can't wait to see the secret project.....

Here is the resource library (as you can see there is no htpc font - maybe it got left off somehow):

[Grooby]

Ah, looks like the version with the fonts all included may not have been uploaded by Wes, or you downloaded before the link was updated...

new Resource folder with all fonts needed...

Well Andy, it looks like others are tinkering with the skin. Everything looks great. By the way do I need to do anything with the xml files in the resource folder?

Thanks Larry

Glad it looks ok for you...xml, now i don't think so, but then again i know nothing about that side of xlobby, i'm just a dumb blonde who tinkers with photoshop a bit
