Use either Photoshop , PaintShop Pro, or Fireworks (actually any image program that writes to .png format will work fine) and make a 640x480 image named "menu.png". Throw this in a folder that is named to the skins name. That's pretty much it. That will change your menu screen. Then you can make other files named "filemanager.png" , "background.png", and "launch.png" to complete the skinning. Also take a look inside the default skin folder. Every image in there can be changed like the "dvd_selected.png"  can be change to what you want and be thrown in your skins folder. It's not that hard at all. All the actual work is done in the image editing programs and ava takes care of the rest.

Also on a little side note to the devs.. If possible try to leave the fonts in the new UI to be in .ttf format like it is now. I think switching over to .xpr's and having to bundle the fonts is a pain.

Awesome skins guys....an eye-candy feast for Avalaunch.

My question is, are there are skins out there that display the G: Drive ?

My buddy just got a 250 Gig drive in his and is waiting for G: Drive support.   Any links or help to get the drive information displayed would be appreciated.

I did a search for many ways to say G: drive and it returned zero results.

The colors of the font is (at least usually) coded using d3d, while the shapes are read from file (specially since they use truetype fonts).

Suggestions:
1. Ask the avateam to let you select font colors in the settings. (i doubt this would be much of a prob, more than some people going "i set my colors to xxxx and cant read it again and you crashed my xbox" ;P)

2. Ask the avateam to start using colored bitmaps for fonts.

Hey I'm a graphic artist and can probably create some awesome skins for Avalaunch.  I just need to know how to do it, I'm pretty new at this whole Avalaunch thing so bear with my ignorance!

Awesome site and forum! I've never had so much fun with my box.

 Pretty simple. Just create 640x480 .png's.

Main screen = menu.png
filemanager screen = filemanager.png
loading screen = launch.png
background screen = background.png

Those are the main ones. It is also possible to change other thing like the dvd_selected and dvd_unselected .png's. Pretty much everything in your media<skins<default folder can be changed. Once you have all your files made up throw them in a folder and put that folder in your media<skins folder and your done.

If you know your fotoshop it's easier to take a screenshot from within ava and then make that .bmp a transparent layer in the skin your working on so you can get everything lined up correctly, then just delete the layer before saving it as a .png.

Hope that helped.

Thanks Pudd,
I did everything you said, created a file for my images, uploaded it to my box, went to the skins loader but my folder wasn't there... I noticed that quite a few skins that were on my box weren't showing up.  

Did I do something wrong or is there something else I need to edit as well?

Not sure what the problem is. Make sure you don't have a folder inside a folder. Put all the .png files in a folder named the skin name and put that folder in the skin folder and it should show up fine. What program are you using to make your .png images?

 It looks like your "AVALAUNCH" text is way too high and would be cut off on the TV screen. You might want to check how it looks on a TV screen before going any further. Otherwise very nice looking.

If the skin uses a unique folder name then you don't have to rename or delete files.
And most skins have a unique name.

And to select the skin you can use Avalaunch.

Don't know what manual you're talking about.  huh.gif

Does anyone know how to recover Avalaunch from a bad skin. What file can be removed for a skin that didn't load correctly. I have had trouble loading a skin that doesn't function correctly and have been unable to get to the screen to change it to a working skin.

I believe XBMC can be recovered by deleting the E:\TDATA\0face008 folder
which will revert it back to default mode.

Is there a similar fix for Avalaunch? blink.gif

Just edit the avalaunch.xml file and set your skin to "default".

Hi, this is my first finished skin - 'Akira'!
I've Uploaded onto AllXboxSkins LINK

I'm no Photoshop expert and I can't even be sure that the RSS? feed bar is exactly placed, because I can't connect online (No PC). Hopefully it does fit properly, because I think it's a nice skin.

The bike looks really cool, doesn't it? And the pastural colours seem to fit nicely.

Oh, BTW since joining this board, I've changed my name online name to PissCloud.  wink.gif

Sorry for being a little off topic, but it sort of relates. Ive checked the search for bout 30 min now and can't find anything.

I'm putting in a new (bigger) hdd and decided to go Avalaunch. Everythings all good except that the text/font is too large. On the options menus the text goes off screen. And using the "Xbox.com" skin at allxboxskins.com by Bulldog64. (Highest rated Ava skin.)

Also in the File Manager, I know the text is too big because the numbers/letters overlap.

I found this part of the .xml, modded it, uploaded it, rebooted, and it didn't work. Ive tried multiple times...

You can specify which font to use in the main menu.
If omitted the font will default to 'framd' size '20'
NOTE!
This font setting may be obsolete once the skinning engine is implemented

<font name="framd" size="8"/>

Please help. I don't know WTF'n problem is. Thanks.

Damn... I always use the online skin think built into avalaunch to update my skins, just go to the Settings > Skins > Online skins if your hooked up on the net, to look at them just hit "a" once, to download it press "a" again, once its "unpacked an installed" hit "B" to go back, and it should be applyed...

I have a really nice skin I downloaded, ill grab my xbox and hook it up to my AIW in a sec here for some pics...

EDIT:
Alright I got the pic, im not sure if this is the actual name of the skin, but its listed as "Official":

Or if you already have any good avalaunch skin send it to [email protected]   :rolleyes:

yeah i agree with ruffles_x allxboxskins has sucked since the made the site. it is down more than up.  they either need more bandwidth or to get someone else to host/serve the site.  I also need some avalaunch skins.

Yeah palmore, the fisrt one you did with the jagged edges, spices it up more. And I like the Idea you came up with for the bottom bar.

I also have a better Idea for the file manager, Its funny though. I just installed my 160GB X-drive,  now I need access to a TV. Don't even ask Y or how I have an XBOX and no TV! ph34r.gif

death trap, could i get ya to take that file manager one and make the boxes in a sep file but still transparent?
so it like this:
menu.png
launch.png
filemanager.png
background.png

the reason i ask is because the irc and telnet both use that same pic which is background.png
so if ya make the file manager boxes sep and transparent, still get same results but works better for telnet and irc

XetaSoft.com is featuring a new Avalaunch skins section (in our gallery) and has several skins already. However, it is up to the community to ensure these skins are available in a central area and to also add skins from designers.

XetaSoft is currently looking to increase the amount of quality Avalaunch skins. If you have any avalaunch skins that you feel the Avalaunch community would enjoy, feel free to upload them to XetaSoft site. (All submissions will be reviewed before posted.)


As far as a contest goes: XetaSoft will award a $50 prize for the best ORIGINAL Avalaunch skin designed from now, until December 1st. Winners(yes, there could be more than 1 if the competition is close) will be annouced by XetaSoft on December 15th. All work must be ORIGINAL without the use of other artists backgrounds (unless Xetasoft recieves written consent from the artist to use the images). XetaSoft's gallery rank and XetaSoft admins will determine the winner.

I hope this helps the Avalaunch community grow, as I hope it helps the Skin community thrive.

Don't think that you got the joke here.

lys is a developer on the Avalaunch team.
He also did the 'official' (as in the Original) skin.

Damn, you really need to put that graphic skill to use in an MXM skin. I am really loving that layout and with a few tweaks that would look great with a full motion background and a circular Thumbnail in the right hand corner. Very nice.

I dled one of the skins over at allxboxskins yesterday and was a little confused as to why the skin had other xml files in the archive (config and another one i cant remember).  I thought it just uses skin.xml.

Also, do I just delete everything in the media folder and transfer what its in the new skin??  I noticed that there are some files that the new skin is missing.

Good gravy mable, it's been a week or so since I've checked this thread (maybe longer  sad.gif ) but all I can say is WOW, some damn fine skins that are being created! I just really can't wait till the ava team releases .50 with the new skin UI.

*wonders if they will let a few skin devs get a pre-release to make a few "included" skins, so ava will have a nice skin pack included with the official release of .50* *hint**hint*  wink.gif


Keep up the great work guys, everyone put there skins on Xetasoft.com, let's see if we can get him to keep it up and running even though allxboxskins is back up.. We don't wanna loose our avalaunch skinning contest 1 month before it's over =)

No, but the fact is that the way ava handles skins has changed with the latest release.

So this thread is for skins packed in skin packs/zips using the new file layout we introduced in .48.2
