If someone could post a list of "wants" we could then look at it and choose a subject to work on...IE "Sunsets"...We the skinners don`t have any idea what you have "too" much of and "not enough of" in the library...Perhaps a clue ? If you dont want to do this publicaly then you could tag the e-mail signiture to say "wanted" Flags ect... An Idea ? <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/

Win Customise should have a page of clear instruction, maybe even a valuation period, say 2 weeks. Some sort of star rating so you can fast track those artists who spend hours and hours making images up that you know are good and there work is genuine. Also it is not always clear to us what you have too much of and what you might be looking for. All these space aged funky images are ok but what about simple scenery or nature. We can`t see all the images in the library so you c

Tips on booting... 1. Make the whole page up layer by layer in something like Adobe Photoshop or better still Dreamwaever Fireworks. 2.Take that PNG file to Microsoft Paint and change to 16 Bitmap. (remember each time you change from software to software the image gets worse. 3. Finally, render the image pixel by pixel so that the whole page is correct for colour loading to boot. Remember to clean up any words (even the MS logo part) If all the pixels are colo

I use the boot skinner and have two tips. 1. The instructions need to be made clearer. It it forever to understand them. I have mastered it now and would be willing to give advise to members who need some help. Currently there are only 260 available boot skins, looking at other skins this is an area for development...Keep up the good work. 2. My second tipe is, when skinning make up a template do all the neccessary art work in a bit map 16 mb(some thing basic) like paint and th
