Hades Sent You a PM about Graphic Design.

Ok updates.

- adding the new profile / login screen stuff now.
- Still configuring some customized skin settings.
- Doing some minor cosmetic changes to some colors.
- Updating some default images as they where to small and becoming pixelated when using Large icons.

All this should be done tonight or tommorow some time and i'll send out PM's to those for some QA on different resi and formats.

My plan is to get this out for the next T3CH release this sunday.

BTW, it is looking cleaner then ever now that i have some time to kill.

Got a couple guys testing now... Just to show progess check out the new login screen.





As well, all hoping it should be ready for release for the next T3CH build. I'm putting about 3 1/2 hours a night into this so forgive me as i am the lone developper. :/

A bit off-topic, but Hades... your signature is just plain wrong and you seem to scream like all other people who do not check their sources. No offense, but it looks childish.

Again, another nice screenie. Take your time with testing and do not exhaust yourself with working on it. Make sure that you still like working on it. Remember, you provide this 'free'.

[edit]
A question. Will the skin also have the sound effects we are familiar with?

[manturafs]

Hades, it looks great.  I'm sure it runs faster than my mediacenter on my pc as well.  can't wait to see it finished.  I'm eagerly awaiting checking it out!

And yes, i got a life, got a job, just finished on the links and going to do some more work on this. As well, I know it is free and i like to make deadlines. As a software configuration manager, this is what i do. The screenie was simply a pic to show progess on what i mentioned i was working on earlier.
As seen below...

So again, what the hell are you talking about... If i say i release it on a day, it will be released, i LOVE do this as a hobby and when i get into it, i go all in to complete it. If that means 3.5 hours a night, GREAT, I LOVE IT. As for the long dev, that not for sympathy, I really don't give a crap if it is released this week or not, it is simply a personal goal. That comment was to get others interested as i would love to get other devs to work on this with me.

(end rant)

Looks like I missed a lot these past few days!
Skin is lookin awesome.  

You guys can probably also expect a few additional theme packs for this after it's out. I should probably get to work on them now!

[conners]

is anyone else interested in helping to convert this skin into a proper 16:9 view?

Bill Gates never said "640k ought to be enough for anybody". The article I pointed to tells that Bill Gates has always denied this and a solid source is never given. You put something in your signature which you heard from someone else without checking your sources.

I made a reference to all the people on the internet who just scream stuff while they don't even know if what they say is true or not. Because one person screams something, another thinks it is true so also starts screaming it.

If you want another good example of 'screamers', read this. It's about a quote of Benjamin Franklin (one of the Founding Fathers of the United States), which gets misquoted alot on the internet because people, again, do not check their sources. The author of that page looked at the right sources and found the correct quote.

As long as something gets told over and over again, people will start to believe this. It doesn't matter whether it is true or not. Try to avoid this, because rewritting history isn't a smart idea.

What does this have to do with the topic? Open a thread about signatures and go complain there. If you have criticism let it be of a constructive nature about the skin. Let the discussion end here. Thank you.

What has your reply to do with this topic, then? If you would be smart enough, you wouldn't join in the discussion, making it end sooner. Now you made me reply... oh, wait. I did that myself. Never blame another for making you post.

OK, let's get back on-topic. Hades! Any new updates about the skin?

[Hades_666]

Ok guys,

I'll release tests tonight to a few people so please check your PM's for info.

As for a full release... Kind of waiting on some image updates i am working on. This is the list left of things to complete.

osd image update
default image update
Original MCE sound effects

As for the XMLs and the skin... It contains 100% of all the skin features PMIII contains. The profile options, login screen etc....

UPDATE...

Palmtree as arose from the dead and has begun working with me to rebuild some default images. If all go well, we should have it completed some time this week.
