New plugins vs. MCE graphics (1 Viewer)

[Anonymous]

I just wanted to let everyone that is developing plugins know that they can feel free to request graphics for the MCE skin. Since I love what is happening right now with all the plugins that are popping up I thought I let you guys now. You can email or PM me (johan.levin@gmail.com).

And hey, keep up the great work and lots of respect to all of you

Can we have a place on the forums where we can request gfx for the relevent skins. I know that's a lot to ask of the skin designers, but since the plugins have to work with all the default skins, it makes it a pain to make it fit in with the theme of the skin.
I did my best with the show times plugin, but I'm sure the skin developer would do 10 times better.

:wink: you made a great Job with all the xml for the skins
(..and it is a hard Job) ..you are the xml in person.

Can you say me when you change or bugfixed the skins what do you have made, that i can do the same to the Naley Skin that he is also uptodate?
So i can better find in the xml´s what i have to made. In other way i have to search in all the xml what is made. I´m not so good in xml.


....to knubile

.....that is a good Idea.

Next time someone has a gfx request start a "Grapics request" thread. And btw knubile, it will be really interesting to check your plugin.

Someone is fishing for someone to do his xml

harley,
subscribe to this mailinglist:
http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mediaportal-cvs

And you will get a mail whenever something gets changed / added.
When you see my name in the mail it will mostly be a fix to skins.

A guide describing how you created some of the graphics (or the effects) would be really cool!

The whole reason that I'm on the forum at this moment is to see if I can find such a thing.

* edit *

Have just replicated the effect by doing the following in Photoshop:

Convert the image to grayscale to remove the colour and then back to RGB.
Create new layer above image to be used, fill with light gray.
Changed layer mode to 'Hard Light'.
Resized image to appropriate dimensions.

How far from the MP way is this?
