Title: My First Skin, "waterstone"
Post by: MrSelfDestruct on October 26, 2003, 09:03:00 PM
This is my first skin for MXM. Now that I have started to use MXM skinner, I think I will probrably start making skins more often, so Im sure you guys will be seeing more out of me. Let me know what you think. Any feedback would be great.

Looks cool, is the bg animated?

You can go to #MXM on EFnet and upload your skin there (stay in there a while and you'll get ftp upload information)  Or talk to one of the servers there.  And I can put it up on edonkey.

btw, geocities doesn't like linking pictures outside.  So the picture shows up as a cross until you actually go to geocities.com/blah/pic.jpg

If you want, you can make a yahoo group and share it there. (Max 20 megs, I believe)

unsure.gif Sorry, I forgot geocities doesn't like people putting links to picture files externally either.  It currently says something like:
Sorry, this page is temporary unavailable for viewing.

I guess you should make a html file, and put the picture in that.  laugh.gif

Edit: Interestingly, "Save Target As" works. hmm
Edi2: Maybe not.  hmmmmmmmm...

You might try naming it as "txt" instead of "jpg" then try and link it as an image. Might work...

there, the pics is back up. That txt trick didnt work, but as soon as I put the regular link back in, it started working again. It probrably wont be up for too long though. Like I said before, if someone could host it, and post the link in this thread, that would be really cool
