Thanks! But I was getting the pic for waffles. So it'd really be for him. lol.
Oh ok. lol.

Does anyone here have an example of what text in the Kingdom Hearts games looks like? I can't find anything on it.


Director- lol. Maybe. =P I myself, am going to find out if the local gaming store is having a midnight release, and if so, I'm going to wait out for a while infront of the store till midnight.

I actually have one time set of Japanese release, and one for Americans. The Japanese is just for the complete roster, of course. lol.

Blubba: Maybe... Old English? I know it doesn't look like it, but it somewhat fits.

Soon as i get my Wii time will fly, especially in January since that's always a fast month.

November, and December will go by mega slow. Especially december. Get ready guys for the final boss month, December.

You will be loaded with projects, homework, tests, final exams, midterms before the break, then the dreaded track season starts on janurary.

oh boy...

Truthfully, thinking back 2 months ago to when the delay was announced, time has really flown.

When we get to the end of Dec., then I'll go into complete Smash mode.

What really sucks is that Dec. 3rd would've been the perfect release to make the maximum of a semester long winter break for us college students...

Oh well. Having the release date changed to Feb. didn't stop me from taking a week off of work. :p

No smash friends? *sigh*

I know what that's like. Too well.

But guess what? Praise wi-fi!

And yeah, time actually has flown pretty good since the delay. So it's turning into a almost all pro in a pro vs con list.

On a side note... Oh my dear frickin' lord... my computer doesn't have Old English as a text anywhere! o.O

I'm having a lot of trouble with this. I downloaded the phantime thing no problem, and then downloaded the different skins. I get lost on step 5 where you say open the skin in .rar format. I'm not sure exactly what you mean. Any help appreciated. Thanks

Nevermind. Scratch my last post. I got it.

Someone may have already asked this, but is there anyway to make it full screened?

Like ... the picture takes up the full screen, and the countdown is larger, taking up a section on the bottom or on the side.

That would be completely possible, but complex at the same time. You would need 4 timers operating, each would have one of the numbers in it for the seperate time lengths; each one being very large I would presume. Then, what you need is too have your desktop be the image you want, and include the Days, Hrs., Mins, Secs on the image that is the desktop. These will line up with the four timers.

On each of the four timers, you would have it be a section of your desktop image, and then you would move it into place so that it seemlessly transits from desktop to timer image without you being able to see.

That's how I see it being done with the utmost efficiency.


Edit: Yeah, try not to do multiple posts. =] We all have our moments but just try your best to be smart about it.

Here ya' go. =]

I just threw this together, it's not much but I hope you like it anyways.




Here's the .txt

Garamond
12
0 0 0
125 77
172 77
228 77
300 300

And don't forget to change the date to Dec. 25, 07!


Edit: Any other requests?

And I'll take a shot at one for you too, blayde.
I saved that picture then put it in a new folder in the skins folder and then put that text in a notepad and saved it and put it in that folder but when i click on it theres a red "X"

Waffles - Doublecheck and make sure the image is named 'back'. I've missed that so many times it's not even funny. And it works for me, so as long as you have it as a JPEG and named back it should would.


Also, I have finished the Sora one. Although, I admit, I know NOTHING about Kingdom Hearts, so since it was for Christmas I just kind made it as generic as possible. lol. Here it is if you want it.



The .txt is as follows:

Times New Roman
11
255 0 0
34 82
93 82
158 82
215 82


Don't forget to put Dec. 25, 07! =]


And I'm still open for requests, as always. Although, I'd prefer the next one be related to Brawl, that was this place doesn't get in hot water from any mods who think it's way too off topic.

Woohoo it worked, thanks :):):):)

I like the Sora one too. :)

EDIT: for some reason, the sora one isnt working for me.

Hmm not working? Hold on.

That happened to me to. Paint.NET freaked out and wouldnt let me save it as a JPEG, so I GIFed it. I'll get a JPEG up soon ok?


Edit:

Okies. Here we go, here's the image in JPEGy goodness.




I've made a note about all your requests, and I'll get to them; that's a garentee. =] But remember I have school.

Wow this is a really nice program, very nice job on those skins. If anyone would want to consider my request, I think a nice Mr. L skin would be pretty cool, or you know, just anything with luigi. The sonic Luigi skin is a step in the right direction, very good job on that one Hitakus =)

Very nice skins Blubba Pinecone. Because of you, I decided to make a new section "Miscellaneous Skins" so now you can make any skins/countdowns for anything you want and I'll still post them up.

Yes, that means every and any god-dam-random-stupid-non-brawl-related-thing:
New Years, Valentines Day, Birthdays, movie, music, kitty, Armageddon, Daytona 500, Kwanzaa, Super Bowl XLII, Wimbledon, Hanukah, Daytona 500, Martin Luther King Day, hat, banana, pickle, potato, pants, porn... what ever you want.

Preferably, I would want something useful, but I won't stop you. I'll post anything you got (within reason).

I am having a lot of issues at the moment with this whole moving thing. I promise I will be back as soon as I can though. (1-3 days should be about right)

I will make skins for people when I get back. Sorry guys. =(

How do I make it so when I start up my account, it shows 2 countdowns and not 1?

EDIT: Also, both the Christmas ones dont really line up... like the day doesnt line up with the "Days" and so on.

Yeah, im not sure either, if you guys do figure it out, I can make a super skin! (uses 2 or more skins, side by side and such)

They don't line up? well I guess ask Blubba Pinecone first and see what he thinks

Don't line up you say?

That may be because I purposely make the .txt to have the number's bottom line up perfectly with the bottom of the time labels.

So, I can't actually help you on it specifically, but all you should need to do to get it however you want is fiddle with the coordinates in the .txt yourself till you like it. =]

The first is the x, the second is the y, incase you didn't know. So increase the last number a tiny bit if you want it moved down, etc. Hope that helps.

To run multiple clocks on startup, just right click the second clock and select the option "Run this clock at startup". Each clock is considered its own program so you will need to repeat this for each clock you are using.
Does this not work for you guys?
By the way, I am kinda back now so I can take requests again. If they come out a little slow its because things around me are a little hectic at the moment.

I'm almost done with my Samus skin. I'm also ready to start my fourth one. It will be either Ridley or the Ice Climbers, I haven't decided yet.
I'll post all four of them again (the first two are fixed) when they are all done.
