Ok, I've converted the greenpanel skin as an example so that you guys can make whatever skins you'd like. One note however, the bitmap images for a vga skin end up being a bit large. This skin totals about 1.5 Meg!

The process of converting an existing skin is easy:
  • I took all the vga toolbars and images from the default skin and placed them into the skin folder
  • I took the original portrait and landscape backgrounds and simply scaled them to 200%
  • I edited the .gps file to use all of the vga resources

That's it. You can now use all the images that I've included as a template to make your own versions.

If you have any questions let me know. Someday if I get a bunch of time again I'll make it so that it stretches a qvga skin but I'm busy these days sadly.

You can download the greenpanel vga skin here: http://www.cs.pitt.edu/~jmisurda/ppc...npanel_vga.zip

I'm glad you like the vga enhanced version, I apologise for not being a good skinner to have made any nice ones. Someone may want to PM M@rten to point him to this thread to encourage him to release his vga skin.

Jon
