You guys should think about designing a program to make your own skins so it's easier to do. I tried and I got lost. Or you could just make a black and red one for me...lol

i'd like an xp style skin.

Use Windows XP, download Java 1.4.2 (or the 1.50 beta), download LimeWire 4.1.2, and choose the 'Windows Skin'. It'll be XP. I use it daily.

What about my red and black one.... By the way, the Windows Xp theme is really kewl.

There's no red and black skin right now, I don't think. We do have plans to add a feature which lets people easily make their own skins, but it's not too high on the list of things to do. It'll get done at some point, but there's no guarantee of when.

It's all good. At least someone is thinking about making one. That would be really kewl. Please take ya time.

any estimate of when this will be done?

No real date on it. If someone gets inspired, it could be tomorrow. Otherwise, it could be next year. LimeWire's all open-source, so if you or any of your friends are particularly nifty coders, we'll gladly accept a patch that makes the skins.

doesn't sound too difficult to do...
but then again... i'm still just starting on Visual Basic... the stuff I'm doing right now isn't exactly... cool...or fun... or useful
but ey... i'm getting there:P

Actually making a program to make skins woudltn be that dificult. I could make one in visual basic where you woudl type in each color and it would show you what is changing while you type in the color. As far as zipping it all and making it a lwtp youd have to do that solo I have no idea how to do that kinda stuff same with the images youd have to edit and stuff outside of it. Umm If i figure out the skin code enough and have some extra time I may make it.
