Few Skinning Questions..

Frodo, I remember reading somewhere that you said in 1.9 you will support transparency? Is this true, or am I hallucinating again?

How hard would it be for you to implement flash support? That would take skinning to an entirely new level of eyecandy. This is a long shot, but I figured I'd ask..

Jawbreak/Frodo: Any future updates on the skinner to also support the rest of .ini's?

And last.. This probably has been asked too many times before, but.. Any ETA on 1.9? I have my skin pretty much laid out, but if transparency is available in 1.9 I will wait for that first.

Yes it will.

No way, Flash is cool, but the communication between Action Scripting and
VB sucks ***. It would be a horrible waste of time.

I have nothing to do with that, I'll let Jawbreak field that one.

I am hoping to release it sooner than this, but if not I will be taking a
vacation the 10-18 to finish it up. Coding is going better than expected
lately but you never know what will come up.

As far as your skin, go ahead and design it for transparency, that way it
will be ready. But remember, there will be some optional elements you can
add *IF* you want them.

Yea i plan on updating it but right now im working full time and going to school so I have like no free time :P

If you want I guess you could like draw it up and just edit the ini file to fit the correct labels? Ill try to get some programming in over the long break.
Thanks for using the software, cool to know.

That's no excuse, how do you think the FrodoPlayer was written ?
(Of course I failed )
