Show off your Impulse skin!

Take that, green!

from WinCustomize Forums

Yes....that's right. Who thought it would be sooo easy to skin.

It's as simple as replacing the images in Program Files/Stardock/Impulse/Skins/Images* (3 folders) and editing font colors in the skin.xml. So easy even *I* could do it! :LOL:

TIP: When Impulse updates, it WILL overwrite all the original images that you changed. Take a tip from Snowy and rename all your modified images (I just added [s] to the end to know they're mine) and then update the changed image names in the skin.xml and save a copy somewhere, so when Impulse updates, all you need to do is replace the skin.xml. I just tested it and worked great. (Impulse updated and it was green again, gah!)

So let's see your skinned Impulse. ;)

Mine (just some basic recoloring and changed the back.jpg):

It's so purdy....

I bet this is one effect Stardock didn't expect Impulse to have


Strangely enough it's one they probably should have expected.

By nature, people like to personalize things(bedrooms,cars,desks,clothing,equipment.)

When computers became personal, people sought ways to further personalize them, and anytime a program was offered with limited personalization capabilities, people found ways to stretch those boundaries.
It's the whole reason WC and Stardock exist.

I'm just happy I was able to create something for once,its all usually way over my head.

I know this thread is about skinning Impulse, but I thought it would be fun to skin the WB Config.
I used Images from the Synthek WB by danilloOc.

Obviously not done yet. But since I'm using the No Load Limit theme for everything else I decided to try and match it up.

There are some great skins here.  Some of the walls make it hard for these ol' eyes to find icons but that's the point, right?  If I don't like it, I can skin it.

These are amazing.
But I like the green.
