I have developed an application that generates the SKIN.xml for you skins. You browse for the image of each part of your skin and then use the hex codes to change the colours of different parts of the text (everything is breifly labeled) and then fill in the details such as Version and Name and Comments of each skin. Click generate and it will generate the .xml for you to save or copy. The program assumes that the pictures are going to be in the same folder as the .xml.

ATM it only reads .png or ALL files so it is possible to use .jpg etc its just not an option so you need to select All Files when browsing but if people have no problem with this i will leave it 'as-is'.

It is available for download now. Post your comments and feedback and tell me how you get on.


cheers

Yo V3 Rocks !! Thanks a Lot !!!!!

i have some idea for V4

make a preview of the skin...

also use my layout files that i have put up...!!!! they be should be shown initially in preview
and as we go on adding back ground and stuff.. the preview must get updated...

this will be the ultimate Walkman 2 Skin Maker..!!!!!

i hope we can get that..
i know am a dumbass asking for too much
only if i knew how to make it.. i would have made it !!!!!!!

anyway Thanks a Lot !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kawam]

Ahhh no...i made a mistake!I choose the skin on my walkman, and mistakenly i shut down phone, and replace the xml file for that skin. Now in my walkman, the skins doesn't exist. When i select setting>skin only off just appear. I tried to delete the skins folder using xx++, but an error occured. How can i recover back the skins? can anyone help, coz in setting>skin just off button appear.
