Dragon_slayer,

I thought Future Retro was a nice attempt. Good, but not great.

This skin...is Fantastic. What improvement. Brilliant. You've made huge progress in a short time.

(My only slight...very slight dislike is the background used for the album list....I think it's a bit too busy. It kind of distracts your eye when trying to read the info.)

Thank you. I now have a new favourite skin. :D

Nice performance Dragon_slayer! ;)

Thanks Jed4570 I’m glad you like my new skin! I agree my Future Retro skin was flawed but it helped me get around the learning curve of skin creation & what works & doesn’t work. I still intend on going back & improving it for my Future Retro 2 release.

In regards to my new eMetal skin I’ll probably keep that background for the album list as the default option but if I do this I definitely include a plain background as an alternate option. If enough people agree that it is distracting, however, I’ll do the vice-versa.

Thanks Pirk, I’ve been busy on my own skin & haven’t had a chance to comment on your new Crimson Live 3 skin but I’ve downloaded it. I especially like the cool rotating mask effect in your artist list!!

Its a very nice looking skin - elements fit very well together and its very easy to read.
You could try to put more transparentcy to the big tribal logo in the album list.
More and more skins are coming out - not bad.

Hi Dragon_slayer,

very nice skin, you've done here. Congrats!
I like it - weather it does not fit in my living room. I've got more wood than metal in it. ;)

I'm also looking forward for you FutureRetro-Skin. I think you can really improve it.

Greetings

Here’s a plain albumlistbac for download, if you prefer it I’ll include it as the default background. :)
