You can get the .zip from <!-- BBCode auto-link start -->http//www.soundlab.freeserve.co.uk/ext/wallpapers/sailormoon-xmas.zip<!-- BBCode auto-link end --> new skins will be coming to my site over christmas.

These skins are (c) Flipside 2002. I have to put this because it appears that My-communicator.com are ripping other people's IP.

Yeah... very pretty skins! /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Btw, how can I put pics on my posts?
I try it with Copy and Paste, but it doesn´t work. ??

Regards!

You need to use HTML.

There is a bit about this in the FAQ (see link at top of page or here <!-- BBCode auto-link start -->http//www.allabouter6.com/phpBB/faq.php)<!-- BBCode auto-link end -->

This is really cool... BTW Merry Christmas to every1.

Master,

I already have HTML enabled on "preferences", but I don´t know what I have to do. If I have a JPG file, what have I to do to put it on the post?
Please excuse me but a lot of technical texts in english are too difficult to me.

Thanks! /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

P.S. Merry Christmas! Feliz Navidad! /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Type in the following code, but replace the relevant bits with your own stuff. You image files must be somewhere on the net...

&lt;IMG SRC=&quot;http//www.myfiles.com/mypicture.jpg&quot;>

As mr N9210 says it is the code.

I'll try and investigate upgrading the forums to make it easier.

Rafe

Thanks, guys

Then I can not do it, cos the files aren´t on the net /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif it doesn´t matter.

Regards!

Hey Manowar...
Send the pics you want on the Forum to me and i´ll host them from my site..
Then when I have uploaded them i´ll send you the URL for you to post.. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif
[addsig]

Thank you Loony!

It´s not necessary that you send me the URL. You could post the files for me! /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif
I have sent you the jpg files and the mbm file.

Regards!

Ok here they come........

<B> Oh my God</B>
Manowar has really pulled it off here..
So dust off the glasses and have a look..

Loonyworld, look out cos some more Sailor Moon skins are on their way at the moment (I'm not an addict) as well as some cool 3X3 Eyes skins (although I don't think I can fill a pack with just 3X3 Eyes so something else may be in with that).

There's more I wanna do, but they are a bit pointless as I doubt anyone here would be interested if I made a Tug-of-War skin or something. But ideas are still coming.

Flipside

WOW, Manowar & Flipside - amazing skins - keep up the good work.

Loony, looks like you may have some competition /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

The one thing that stops me changing my skin all the time is the having to reboot, if only we could get rid of that!!!

Speaking of which I do actually have an idea of how to change the right panel without having to reboot, it will take a small bit of programming if anyone is intrested in doing it?
[addsig]

You find someone to make that work and I'll be very happy /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif all this rebooting malarky makes me think I'm running Windoze on it at times.
I'd offer to code the app for you, but I'm still scanning the API stuff.

Flipside

Well, it's actually very simple, here's the logic;

When you change to a different frame within an MBM you need to reboot, but if you change the MBM itself you don't. So rather then having 1 MBM with 4 frames, you have 4 MBM files, file 1 has 4 copies of picture 1, file 2 have 4 copies of picture 2, etc...

The program has the 4 MBM files, when you set it to picture 1 it copies file1.mbm to display.mbm, this will change the right panel without having to reboot.

Then when you want picture 4, rather then get the 4th frame from the mbm, the program copies file4.mbm to display.mbm and your right panel changes to the 4th picture.

Maybe I should have entered this into the PSI NT contest /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Hopefully it's not 2 hard for someone with skills and time to develop this.

[addsig]

That is a far more cunning plan than I had thought of, and is also quite easy to do manually...... hmm skin time savers coming up for me /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif

Flipside

Yeah.. Patrick, you should have entered your idea into the PSI NT contest! I hope it becomes a reality! /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif
I sent some images for a PacMan game for 9210 to PSI NT. I´d like to play PacMan on my comm!

Regards, guys!

And thanks again for your post, Loony! /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by Manowar on 2001-12-11 1502 ]</font>

Particuarly cunning that. The only dowsize is the added space needed I guess.

Rafe

Glad you all agree, the only thing we need now is for someone to write the app to do it!

[addsig]

/me got <B>VERY</B> big ears.

Interesting, indeed very very interesting.

God knows how many times "IT" has to reboot to make screens of the 4 pics in a skinpack..only 2 times for every screen..One for the texture and one for the colors (oh thank you Epocware 4 devine app)

So something like this is more than appriciated...

Great idea..More than Great

Maybe it´s comeing in the next version of Colors as an addon and a fixed right menu text colour for the custom patterns...
/me slaps himseld and wakes from the dream..

back to bed... /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif
[addsig]

/me just creates 4 different MBM files, each with the skin image as first pic, and 3 more 2bit images (crap or maybe related to skin) filling the rest of each MBM. Therefore the MBM won't be too large or of too much bother as very few people will change skins more than once a week.

Flipside

That will work, the only reason I suggested the 4 copies in the MBM files is that it would then work no matter which frame within the MBM that it looked at, but sure, if you want to save space then make a single framed MBM file.
