Snd Dup Skin

[Guest beaVer]

Hello. This is a "gift" kind of thing. I'm not implying that I'm part of the SND Team. I put your name at the top because I was bored and nothing better to do. So... yea; this is only my second dUP skin (I refuse to upload my first one ). Oh yea, sorry about the dialog boxes, but I can never get their colors to match right. **Thanks to EclipTic for making the tutorial that taught me how to do this!

Here's a download so you can see it in better quality. (100% Malware Free)

beaVer,

First let me say that there is no need to upload your gfx to both the downloads area and the gallery. One or the other is sufficient

Thank you for your efforts. It's a good job for your 2nd skin. If I may offer a few suggestions: The texts (application, file, author, info) are very hard to read even on a bright monitor. More contrast would be good to help the text stand out. Also, adding some mouse over effects on the buttons would be nice.

I agree that they are very bright against the dark backgroung.... changing the colors is very easy to do within the dUP settings... maybe a medium grey would look good?

Sorry. I guess it looks like that because my monitor is in sRGB mode. I shall improve. More to come.

Thanks once again for your input.

I kinda like where you were going on this, my only suggestions are make the text a little easier to read, and maybe shrink down the size, Maybe by putting Filename and Author on the same line, and moving everything up a little, just a thought though.

I redesigned it and took your opinions into development. Hope this is a little better than the first.

Great improvement, actually. I like the overall layout.

Still it's way to dark, you can hardly read anything, just lighten it all up a little bit, especially the font color of the labels and the text window should be like white or some sort of gray.

I can only read it when looking at my TFT from an angel of less than 60

This is very dark. I recognized the buttons only in a screenshot, which was drastic brighten up.

beaVer, you should really increase the brightness a bit more.

I suppose it was done on a TFT, so you could try adjusting the brightness to +50 and it is shaping up well.

and maybe optimizing the contrast to almost the same value around 0-50.

It could also help when you calibrate your screen:
