My Own Nokia Skins :)

HI!...

i want to share with all of you my new Nokia Skinz 😊

I just created on PhotoShop 7 ... are on 3 basic colors (red, green or blue)

i hope you all like it 😃

cya!

Now v1.2 ... i improve the Note image

They are some cool skins. Well done AEFOX.

May I ask how you created the mbm (skin) extension file. I've tried to use a MS-DOS exe file called bmconv and a .bat with command. But the bmconv.exe only allows the bitmap images to be save under 4 bit monocrome. She the skin is black and white 😞 .

Could you please help me on this matter. Thank You.

HI!...

it's strange that you can't do it...

i use the same command ...

i simply open a directory on Win XP that contain the files
(the bmconv, bmp files and .bat), then i double click the bat file that come with WildSkinz...

and i use PhotoShop to make the BMP files.. and they are saved
as a 24bit BMP ...

So.. i don't know what are you doing wrong... :-?

May be you don't have to use MS-DOS Window Command .. try direct on XP File Explorer and double click the .bat...

Just in case i attached here the bmconv.exe file that i use...

hope this help you...

cya!

Hi, can you post a preview image of the skin? Don't have the phone with me for this week.
Thanks!

Thanks AEFOX,
I downloaded the bmconv.exe that you attached and that did the job fine. It must have been the bmconv.exe that I had. Thanks again.
