Skinners: What was your catalyst to start skinning? (Another mushy thread)

Published on July 23, 2004 By farkusmarkus In WinCustomize Talk

I'd have to say that Jairo Boudewyn first inspired me to try and learn how to emulate the glassy aqua look and from that I took a shot at skinning.

"Steel this Amp" Winamp skin, and the Dreams Windowblinds skin started the ball rolling for me.

Simply being tired of the way Windows looks and feels!

Really though, I like a lot of the stuff that I've downloaded and run. However, I'm the type of person that likes to know how things work. On top of that, I've always been into artistic things. So, while I enjoy much of the skins/icons/objects...etc, there's always that "I like it, but I wish that( object/skin part) were a little more ( adjective)" aspect.

Plus, I'd really like to develop some stuff that's based on my favorite Anime/Games/Movies/Books... etc. Overall though, it's just that I love to learn new stuff, and this stuff is just too cool not to want to learn.

LiteStep from 97 ish.
Back in the day when customizing it meant finding different tiles for the Wharf, and matching efX skins.
