My latest RockIt Skin

Didn't want to impose on Hank's thread and the RockIt thread was getting pretty cluttered.

1024 x 768

I spent about 7 or 8 hours on this one. It won't be for everyone. Prior to going digital I used single rackmount players, so I'm used to the top & bottom decks, instead of the customary side-by-side look that most of the skins have. I wanted to gain some height on some of my lists.

I took several elements from different skins and created my own hybrid.

I don't currently have a need for the preset buttons, but if I do, I can easily take my web addy and the headphones off and place them right there. (I actually had them there to start off, but wanted some room for the other things)

As I program some playlists, I'll add the RockIt library above My Computer.

If I had a program to create buttons and knew how to do it, I thought it would have been cool to have the mix left/right buttons created to fit snuggly within the fader bar on each side of the slider, snuggled in those round corners. (I have two little screw heads right there now.)

Using MsPaint to find the X,Y coordinates helps a bunch when moving stuff around the skin!

Rick, if you're interested in this one, I did make a background without my name on it.

That's so cool! I was going to do a stacked one like that. Nice use of that tray!
It's fun, but it's like a drug. I have a montage to work on for the end of the month and I can't stop playing with this program!

Damn you Ricky!

Nice,clean,simple!Thats the way all programs must look like.

I've uploaded this for anyone that would like it.

I've called it RockIt Hybrid --- because I used several elements from the different skins.

I hope I've done this right. I'm doing it from work and not thru my regular program.

Hank created me a couple of mix buttons that fit so nicely within the crossfader tray! You're awesome bud! It really cleaned up the layout!!

Wait'll you see the one I'm working on now -- it's kinda funny... :sqlaugh:

I should be done shortly...

Sure, just gotta show me up, huh? hahahaha lol!

Hey,

I solved that "clock" issue. I simply shaved 2pixels off the bottom of my skins. When the task bar is in auto hide, I can mouse down and reveal it.

Sometimes you just have to say ......duh?

Hank on the JTV Denon it looks like something is squished I didnt get to check what it was can you have a look?

Randy: I hope you don't mind but I've stolen your design and modified it to be a little more simplistic and more colorfull I should be done with it in the next day or so.... still modifing positions and colors and what not.

I could show off what I've got so far but I don't want to spoil the surprise!!!!

Modify away! You gotta build it to your liking.

BTW - you been to the mailbox today?

Ok so this skin is based loosely on one of Randies... funny I had the idea for it before I saw his.... weird

Rick if ya likes it I'll remove my company name and website from the backgroud... for ya.... don't know if it's as "Cool" as Hanks or Randy's but it's functional for me....

I'm calling it: Marvin The Martian 1280x1024

Rick if ya likes it I'll remove my company name and website from the backgroud... for ya.... don't know if it's as "Cool" as Hanks or Randy's but it's functional for me....
