NEW Face for MP ! - Page 2

Harley · 2006-07-21, 00:02

...many thanks

.as i have say, the Backround can be changed. The Black Background you see in the screenshots can be changed of the user with other Colours or Pictures.

The Skin will come with 3 or 4 different Background with different Colours
The gfx are all making with some transparency , so that it will fit with different Backgroundcolours.

So the user can make the Skin darker or brighter, like he love it. :wink:

Greetings Harley

It looks great

When it's finished I will use it!
How many time (day's/ month's or years) do you think the project is finishes?

Looks awesome Harley!

Now my biggest problem will be choosing between your skin and Vanessa's 3DMP one as to which default to have....

I wonder if I could have a batch file which will start MP with both alternatively.... :lol:

This may be a little messy but will work with basic batch files and no other tools.
You could rename your chosen skin directory "default" and then make a batch file that will check the day of week and rename the default directory accordingly.
On Monday it could change "default" back to 3dmp and then rename this new skin directoy to "default". This way you could have different skins depending on the day of the week.

Of course the last thing this batch file would do after renaming the directory would be to actually run MP.

Hey Marcus,

Actually I was just kidding about having a batch file to do that, but your suggestion has given me some food for thought :shock:

If I get time I may look into it, but it will depend on how much my wife yells at me that the display keeps changing as to how long it will stick around for.

Cheers for the suggestion though!

Looks great. Should also be possible to quite easily make different colour versions as the coloured panels look faily simplistic.

guytpetj · 2006-07-21, 08:54

Love it.
Like the thought of having the option to change the background, thus change the mood of the skin.
