[QUOTE="red_zebra, post: 975546, member: 97560"] Yes, but it wasn't that complicated and I didn't even used Photoshop but only Paint.net (actually I'm absolutely no master in graphic editing, so the following might appear a bit dilettantish). Most of the files you can just colorize (in paint.net the menu is "Hue/Saturation"). Now play around with the two bars "Hue" and "saturation" (better don't adjust "Brightness"), until you have found your favorite color. Write down these two settings and colorize all the other .pngs where you can see anything blue (you can also look in my theme-.zip to find out which graphics you have to edit). Now colorize all the graphics with the same settings and save them (better create a batch for this). The only "problem" is the few graphics with a static foreign element in it (like the green switch in the file "togglebutton_medium_on_focus.png"). Here you have to add the original element (can be found as separate file) as a new layer after colorizing the whole button. Actually it would be nice if the original skin designers could upload the original files in .psd or other uncompressed format, so that it would be easier and more professional to colorize them, especially since every redesign according to "my method" means a loss in quality to the textures (you can see it e.g. in "defaultAudioBig.png"). Unfortunately it seems so, as long the issue is not fixed that all skin files use the settings in references.xml (Edit) For defining the target font colors I used the page [url]http://www.colorhexa.com[/url] - here you can just enter a color which is the outcome of your colorization of the graphics and you will get the hex-code in format #xxxxxx and a section "Shades of #xxxxxx" which you can use as shaded font colors for the new theme. If I understand you correctly, yes, if you have installed different themes you can switch them via the menu (in worst case you have to restart MP and clear the skin-cache) [/QUOTE]
