I think the Co-ordinates work like this "The first two numbers are coordinates and the last two numbers are dimensions"

Yep thats right Mini_man

He's using C550 not PPC mini_man
The first 2 are co-ordinates of the top left of the button area. While the next 2 are sizes of the button area.
Found quite a few over at Nectun in C600 Skins Section

Ill quickly show everyone out there how to get a PPC WMP skin running on a Smartphone if dragging and dropping things will not work.

Here is the original code which can be opened/edited/saved in notepad.

**** Please note that you are editing the .skn file*****

Im saying they can be used on a SP

[gijsdvm]

Okay, but why does no site have Smartphone specific WMP skins?

[gijsdvm]

Hey w411y i also found 5 WMP skins at Nectun, but they didnt work. So i used mini_mans way to make them work on my SPV C550. This is the result (attachment) if anyone would like them. They look fine now on a C550.
Also i have done some others that were originally for PPC. I can post them if anyone would like..

Nice work, but the link of red one is the same with the blue one, hope to fix it soon

[trimy]

any way, I think you'd better keep the picture of AlbumArt in 160x160 size, so that it display in normal way.

[greenturtle]

nice! youve done a very good job

cheers for the heads up - link is fixed!

and with respect to 160x160 album art, i didnt know that was "default" or "usual" dimensions - either way i think looks fine...

netx versions of the skins will have 160x160 tho

Because the default skin use the 160x160, so all the folder.jpg I made is in 160x160. When the skin use other dimensions, the album art picture will look ungainly, especially the line.

Its very very basic.. thats because it was just a pilot, it was the first one I made. Havn't made another since but I'm soon to have a 12 week holiday with basically nothing to do. So I have future plans on updating my site including my tutorials, resource for plugin XML code, more skins, themes and WMP skins. Oh, and a new template while Im at it    

[theyell4]

just finished this one - thought i'd post it!

im liking your homer skin, w411y!

slowly adding to my collection of homemade skins (including one above) and themes at jonbevan.me.uk
