 How To Skin SkinMem
|
|
Skinning SkinMem is a pretty easy task. The only graphic work you need to do is to create one bmp image for the background of your
skin. The rest is the creation of your ini file for the placement and colour selection of your text. The standard ini file looks
like this:
[UserSkin]
SkinName=
author=
date=
email=
web=
background=
transparent=
used_text=
avail_text=
FontName=
FontSize=
TextColor=
FontUnderline=
FontItalic=
FontBold=
So here's the breakdown on each line:
SkinName=Coolskin
Enter the name of what you want your skin to be named.
author=Scarebear
Enter your own name/handle.
date=16th,August,2001
Enter the date you completed the skin.
email=scarebear@twohipdudes.com
Enter your email address.
web=http://www.twohipdudes.com
Enter your web site address.
background=skin-I-made.bmp
Enter the name of your background bmp image you created.
transparent=FF00FF
Enter the colour code for the colour you wish to be transparent (if required).
used_text=35,26
Enter the position that you want the used memory text to appear at (x,y coordinates).
avail_text=29,40
Enter the position that you want the available memory text to appear at (x,y coordinates).
FontName=Verdana
Enter the font face you want your text to appear in.
FontSize=12
Enter the font size you want your text to appear in.
TextColor=000000
Enter the text colour you want your text to appear in.
FontUnderline=FALSE
An entry of TRUE means there will be a font underline. FALSE means no underline.
FontItalic=FALSE
An entry of TRUE means there will be italics applied to the font. FALSE means no italics.
FontBold=TRUE
An entry of TRUE means there will be bold applied to the font. FALSE means no bold.
The colours you choose for the transparency and the font are in the form of BGR and not the standard RGB. Aapart from that, you
are now ready to submit your own skin to any of the sites that have the SkinMem section :) Enjoy.
