Intuition Skin and MUI Themes Site?

Hi there,

I just saw this link on amiga-news.de about a OS4 theme site. While of course tastes differ, I think it's a nice idea.

http://amitheme.amiga-ng.org/themes_1.html

Why don't we have such site for MorphOS which collects the various skins and themes by different people?

Who steps up and does such site?

Someone? It's your chance to do something. I often hear the excuse "I'm not a programmer, not a graphician, not a <insertsomething> and that's why I just consume things others do for me". But doing a small website shouldn't be a big deal really, right?

Don't expect the MorphOS Team doing all the work (they have certainly more important things to do ;-)

) and that's certainly something which could be done by YOU (Yes, you! :-)

).

I'm looking forward to see some lazy MorphOS user asses moving now and start doing something! Do not disappoint me. :-)

regards,
tokai

i've seen that site too and i was impressed.
a site like this is really missing for morphos!
and that could be a chance to collect all morphos skins from out there, coz from time to time i see screenshots with skins i've never seen before and one cannot download them (i've got at least 4 screenshots with unkown skins:)

tokai, i really like your new, unorthodox ways to getting attention and keep things going forward!

Am not myself into making the site, but all my skins are offered free of charge for the purpose :-)

Besides Space Station there has been one called Blue Cadillac also. And also there was an ANR skin unless am completely mistaken :-)

Get Blue Cadillac from here.

AFAIK full alpha translucency/ transparency is possible these days (with 3D layers). So you probably can finish that skin now. Maybe still provide a version for 2D layers w/o the transparency stuff. :)

Can someone give me some more information about the skin @ MorphOS? I am extracting Papiosaur's skin package and yes I am finding all of them on the Skins menu when I get to edit a screen mode. But I thought that when I would select a different skin changes would appear on my wallpaper as well. Well I am just getting some changes on Windows and title bar colors and things like that. Do I have to do something more in order to get a full changed desktop like this:

Hi CountRaven!
When you change a skin the settings for that skin are automally loaded: skin config, MUI prefs for that skin and MUIGfx for that skin. If you open MOSSYS:prefs/MUIGfx you will notice various folders,
everyone of them containing a set of arrows, buttons and so on for general use or for a specific skin
(Ferox and Ghost, in this case).
All this setting are stored in skin config and MUI prefs for a specific skin.
What you see in that screenshot, and that can't be set by a skin configuration, is a mix of PolyNet bar,
MorphOS panel and ClockToy.
Under those bars, you can see Statline, as backdrop, with Wetter bar overlapped, with the same background due to create the illusion that is one bar.
On MetaMorphos and here in Morphzone ("New MorphOS 2.3" thread) , there is the link to a .lha file with PolyNet configuration, some graphic and a mini-pseudo-tutorial I realised in html. This is the link:

PolyNetConfig

Hope it could be useful!

Looking good already.

One thing I have noticed.. the top links do not work in IBrowse (or maybe require javascript, dunno). That probably should be fixed. :)

I agree. BUt I'd like these kind of things inside MorphZone. Wel, I'd like them inside the official MorphOS Team web site (which looks gorgeous, I'd say)...

Yes, I think that, if it works, it must be pure coincidence: There's an anchor element (the link) that has a button inside (declared with the "button" tag, that i've never seen in my life, but indeed paints a button), that does nothing when its clicked. That's perhaps the coder gave for granted that the "click" event of the button would "bubble up" into the anchor, but that doesn't have to happen.
I'd use a plain

INPUT Type="Button"
Value="MorphOS"
OnClick="navigate('mos.html');"

And this ends my contribution as a coder in the MorphOS world.

(yes, I'm THAT briliant)

:-P

Sorry.. still won't work that way ;-)

Will require JavaScript; which I keep disabled in IBrowse. :-)

Just using a normal link would be best. What's wrong with that? :)
