Awesome! But some suggestions. The font is too big and not bright enough.

Also... the progress bar is too small, or the listbox is too small.

might help if you installed the correct font

Still the font is too dark and either the status bar is too short, or the listbox is too small.

Hey TheKingPlaza, would you be cool with releasing the psd files? I would like to change the blue to match the shade of blue in my car interior lights. If not no biggie.

Here are some small tweaks i made for my personal use, decided i would post them here just incase someone else may also like it this way.
Had nothing to do with previous post above.
TheKingPlaza I hope you dont mind.

changes i made are:

buttons on top are from left to right mode bk, mode fw, video, all music, Dir, Dir2, playlist, BBAA, Search

Dirlist is slightly larger and wider
Playlist is slightly less wide
Track slider goes full length under PL & DL
Visuals cover up the PL, DL, Track slider, and buttons on top
Increased the font size for the Dirlist to be same as Playlist

not much, but more suited to me.

take the skin.ini file inside of skin.rar and replace the one in the original if want the changes listed above.

later

Could you make a screenshot of it?

Bluetooth, wifi etc. doesn't light up.. they are just for decoration..

Checkout post 61 for an example.

You can see that the GPS is squashed or the top is cut off.

I know. My complaint was that they weren't bright enough. And also the status bar was too short

Ah, found it

. Thanks. Thought turning "Jump to Vis/Video on Play" would be enough.

BTW: lol @ readme.txt

TheKingPlaza · 01-19-2005, 12:53 PM

all the credits go to you Konrad

thanxs to Konrad's for writing this readme

First off, let me say Fantastic Job on this awesome skin..!

I’ve been trying to get my hands on this skin since it was released. I go out and register with your http://www.mp3car.nl website, and nothing… No confirmation email, no successful logon, nothing… I’m dying to get my hands on this skin, but how can I download it?

tmar89 · 02-01-2005, 11:10 AM

Is there a way to round out the corners when the visualization is on? The rectangle around seems a bit strong and IMO, rounded corners around the vis may make it look better

TheKingPlaza · 02-02-2005, 11:04 AM

I don't think that's possible.. Just don't use it in normal screen, only disply it when using full screen!

cadence117 · 07-17-2005, 12:07 PM

please bring this back...
