0 Days US Brawl is Here!!! Free Brawl Desktop Countdown! Updated 2x Daily.

So if I wanted to contribute some skins, can I just DRAW them (and by draw, I mean create) on MS Paint, or is there some special process I need to fulfill? Thanks!

Special process? No, just make sure its 250x90 pixels, a pic format that works (JPEG/BMP or whatever), and the text coordinates.

Arial <------ Font
10 <---------Size
0 0 0 <-------Color (this is black so 255 255 255 is white)
79 76 <-----Position of "Days"
121 76 <-----Position of "Hours"
169 76 <-----Position of "Minutes"
210 76 <-----Position of "Seconds"

I accept all skins, give me 2 you get your own section.

Hmm, I don't really get the Text Coordinates...how am I supposed to...you know....do that? Do I save it with the....oh wow, I just got it. So do you want where it starts or the middle of it?

 

[tennisthehilife]

You don't have to actually send the txt file if you want, just type them for me.

"So do you want where it starts or the middle of it?" I'm not sure what your asking. Post the text like so:

Arial
11
255 255 255
232 11
232 33
232 54
232 75

Just look at the skins you have, you should be able to figure it out.

You can just post me the pic and the text.

26 Days til Japan release!!!
43 Days til US release!!!

 

[The Director]

Holy ****, only 26 days for Japan? Lucky ducks.

I bet the full roster leaks this week while the Dojo's down...

 

[Mzero]

making a countdown that u can see all the time will make the time pass even slower. I'd rather not know.

 

[HarryTheChin]

I Can't Count

 

[Santini]

I got the program running fine. Now I just can't get the brawl skin on. For some reason, I can't even get the "Skin" subfolder to show up either. Also, is there a way to get that extracting program free?

Thanks for all you're putting into this. It's a great thing to do for the boards.

 

[tennisthehilife]

To make the skin show, put it in
My Computer-->Local Disk-->Program Files-->PhanTim3-->Skins

-Right click the countdown, choose skin.
-If it doesn't show up, click refresh.

Winrar is free, don't worry about the warnings/trial stuff I have been using it for years. It won't expire. Its also a safe program, many websites/people us it.
Go here, download and install the first one "WinRAR 3.71"
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
-Once installed, right click the skin and select extract here.

 

[The Director]

I'll make some new skins this weekend to make up for the Dojo's absence this week...

 

[Santini]

Thanks a lot. I finally figured it out. You're a great user.

[WeeklyJumpman]

Wow! I didn't see any Ridley ones! I'm impressed!

 

[tennisthehilife]

Yeah, I'm sorry we don't have one. Does someone want to make one?

i clicked refresh,and it still didn't show up

 

[The Director]

I was going to work on some skins today...but I came up nil. Sorry. This was my first day off from work in a long time (I basically completely missed Christmas) so I made up for it, vegged and pretty much did nothing. (except buy some 360 games and a new wavebird for Brawl)

 

[Flaminglink]

25-26 days till we find out all characters, and stop the speculation XD

 

[JohnnyInThePants]

41 days and like...20 something hours til North America gets Brawl!

 

[Tiamat475]

Ah finally I am done with my first set. Had nothing to do all day so...I figured. The Subspace Emissary theme.

Preview:

I made 12 of them, I'll most likely be making more later. Ah, I also forgot to add the logos to them so these will be edited later.

Download Link: http://files.filefront.com/Tiamat475s+Subspace+Skins/;9349465;/fileinfo.html

Enjoy!

Edit: Everything looks a lot better now, and now includes logo.

 

[The Director]

Very nice skins, Tiamat! I too made some Subspace skins a while ago, but they sucked so I never uploaded them online.

 

[tennisthehilife]

24 Days til Japan release!!! 41 Days til US release!!!

Sigh, sad no updates til January 7th.

-I've uploaded Tiamat475's skins, awesome great job!

Edit:

oops, almost forgot

i clicked refresh,and it still didn't show up

um... well the next thing I would tell you is, make sure the picture is JPEG. I think some other formats work also BMP i think. Have your pic named "back" jpeg format (or something that works) and a text coordinates file "Custom.txt".

 

[Tiamat475]

Alright, I just finished at least about 20 more, I lost track heheh. The folders are more organized so it'll be easy to find the skin you guys want.

Delete the older version.

New Download Link: http://files.filefront.com/Tiamat475s+SSBB+Subspactrar/;9353195;/fileinfo.html

Once again, enjoy, and thanks you two for your feedbacks and future others!

I'll be sure to make more if new screenshots/videos are released.

Edit: Fixed one of the skins.

 

[tennisthehilife]

^OK, Done. They are up now. Very nice work.

 

[Layupfreak]

Thank you!

 

[Demon Kirby]

Step 5. Open the skin, its in a .rar format.
(For those who don't know, WinRar is a very commonly used and owned program used to extract .rar files. Its safe, and free. (dont worry about if it says trial expire or anything, i've been using it for many years)

So why does it want to me to pay.

I'm frikkin' clueless as to how to do this. I downloaded the trial and I don't see any of he stuff you mentioned anywhere.

 

[HarryTheChin]

Wow, not even a month until Japan gets it.

After you install it, never touch it again. To extract/open zip files, right click the zipped file and select "Extract Here".
