Halloween 2010 Skins?

from WinCustomize Forums

Halloween is creeping up on us next month, and it has always been one of the more popular skinning holidays as it is a chance to really get some fun and creative skins out there.

I'm going to update some of my previous skins, and going to try and bust a few new ones out as well.

I was hoping some others out there would join me as well.  I'm not looking for a community project per say, but I'd like to know if anybody would like to at least help to contribute some Halloween inspired skins.  I will definitely be featuring and highly promoting them, so it will be a good way to get your stuff out there.

Thoughts?

I might have some ideas for Halloween.  ;)   

I'd also be up for contributing to a community project if one gets started.  :)

I'm in the middle of making a Windowblind, Zombie Outbreak (https://forums.wincustomize.com/394798) right now, so I'll definitely be joining you, ID.  Hopefully I'll get it done with enough time to learn DX, so I can make some widgets to match.

You can definitely count on me for a couple of walls also. B) |-)

I would love to see a fabulous Halloween wall that would knock our socks off.  It would be fine if it was a premium one.  I have no talent but I'm willing to pay.  :grin:

Ok so I got to get a in touch with sViz for a little help making a streamlined code to apply what will be 4 different animations, 1 for each corner of the screen set to play at random intervals. I have uploaded one to give you an idea I still have a little camera speed tweaking to go but this should give you a good feel for what I want to do! ;)

I have a feeling ghosts, goblins, witches and skeletons will be popping in and out...

IDEA!

What a great thing for kiddy computers...! They could say "Boo!", rattle bones, cackle and say "Trick or Treat"!

This will be my first time putting something up for the holidays. I may not be a 'real' artist but I'd like to give it a shot. I'm working on the finishing touches for a new Halloween wall. My first one with the text went over better than I expected but the one without flopped. No biggie though. The more I play with PS7 the easier it'll get...I hope. Question. Do dragons count?

Anyone updating the R.I.P. 2007 Theme? One of my favorite all time themes.  The windowblind won't install on windows 7.  Says mycolors is not updated.  Clock widget also doesn't keep time.  Everything else seems good so far.

Disregard I have been out of the loop for a while. Found issue and fixed.
